This is clear by "when the sun came out and showed its face to the stunned world[...]"(page 1).  Through this statement, the reader can infer that there is a lack of warmth, both literally and metaphorically, because the other children wasn't kind and "locked her in a closet before the teacher comes"(page 3). This shows that people usually separate themselves with different people, and that they get jealous if others have something scarce.]]> 2019-12-03 01:33:22 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/418836810 192007032_1 https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/418844041 In the book Trash, there is a scarcity of basic resources and compassion. Due to the reason that the main character lives in a dumpsite and the rooms are in stacks, there is probably poor hygiene. Also, because the police is going to throw the main character "down from the window" just to get information, the reader can infer that there is a lack of kindness and compassion in the city where they live. ]]> 2019-12-03 01:59:15 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/418844041 192007032_1 https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/418941540 In The Giver, the concept of scarcity is prevalent throughout the book. There is a huge lack of freedom, as that there are many rituals and restrictions. This could be seen easily by "Jonas was awed that his father even broke a rule". From this quote, it could be seen that there are many rules and they must be respected. This means that there is a lack of freedom, since "every hour of the day is planned".]]> 2019-12-03 09:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/418941540 192007032_1 https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/420070477 This is an article written by Craig Childs via Global Oneness Project. In this article, the author described the colourless and desertedness of Greenland. "That night a storm socked in the camp. In ghostly polar light, everyone went to their sleeping tents."(paragraph 17) The reader can infer that there is a lack of warmth and hope in the scene. Also, this statement connects with the main idea of the article, saying that there isn't much future in this deserted place, and also regretting the climate change.]]> 2019-12-05 05:58:25 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/420070477 192007032_1 https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/420580194 This is an article written by Emily via Commonlit in 2013. In this article, there is a lack of basic needs and compassion. This is visible by "Whenever we passed a checkpoint, we hid under the seats of the car and the driver covered us up." because the officers at the checkpoint don't really care about the survival of refugees. Also, because that there is a lack of food, water and education in the refugee camp even though it's supported by the UN, the reader can therefore infer that no one really cares about the lives of refugees.]]> 2019-12-06 01:52:57 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/420580194 192007032_1 https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/420583746 This is a poem about the lack of food in Africa and blaming the rich for This could be seen by "Shame on you rich, shame on us all in this great nation" and "Then the poor children there will have waists". The author is expressing the lack of equality and food in Africa and how people don't help in richer countries.about the lack of food in Africa.]]> 2019-12-06 02:04:53 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/420583746 192007032_1 https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/421115389 This article was written by Azby Brown via Global Oneness Project. In this srticle, the author expressed scarcity in the recent decade and connected it with the Edo period of Japan, which suffered from similar problems like us at the beginning of the era. "Beauty depended upon how well a thing helped people fulfill a host of unstated requirements that lent life its meaning and purpose and helped sustain it indefinitely into the future." The author is trying to express how we should learn from the Japanese ancestors.]]> 2019-12-07 02:18:57 UTC https://padlet.com/192007032_1/hankeng/wish/421115389
