Look up the difference in meanings between the words empathize and sympathize. Why does the author choose these two words? juanpablojulianfarre https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1489275489 While empathize is about understand and share the feelings of another, sympathize, means agree with a sentiment, opinion, or ideology, in this case sadness. The author chooses to use these words to show how their parents feel bad for him or her but cannot really put themselves in their shoes and feel what this person feels.]]> 2021-05-04 12:30:33 UTC https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1489275489 2. Is the poem optimistic or pessimistic? Find evidence for your answer. juanpablojulianfarre https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1489279620 First, the poem seems to have a pessimistic resolution since it is sad and speaks with little spirit.
However, the general idea of the poem is optimistic, since although it is sad, it seeks to give an idea that things can improve at the end of the poem.

Phrases as “And sometimes means there’s hope” or “Hope that everyone will get better” reflects this idea.

Why? juanpablojulianfarre https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1489282320 The speaker is talking to the reader of the poem, no matter who this person is and how it is. The speaker’s gender is not revealed because the person who think and express this could be everyone, even ourselves. Therefore, the idea is not to gender this person so that anyone can identify with the poem]]> 2021-05-04 12:32:35 UTC https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1489282320 4. The author resorts to a game of words when he mentions the adverbs ‘always’ and ‘sometimes? What message does he want to convey? juanpablojulianfarre https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1489283392 The message is wanted to convey is that if you say "always", you do not convey a message of hope as when you say "sometimes" that reflects that not always everything is going to be wrong.

There’s a part of the text where it says “I’m sorry that you suffer ‘cause I suffer, And I suffer. Always” That is why we believe that with the meaning of always and sometimes the author means that "always" does not reflect any hope.

We also see how Sang Ly begins to feel proud and more confident of what she is doing, while finding out a little more about Sopeap's life.]]> 2021-05-06 13:24:52 UTC https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1498024470 chapter 9 juanpablojulianfarre https://padlet.com/juanpablojulianfarre/rviq4ojj3ami4iib/wish/1535229346 - Sang Ly couldn´t find literature, even though Sopeap told her literature were everywhere.

My weakest sense is smell, which since I had Covid, I have lost it and it helped me to realize that it does not influence almost nothing in my life, and I think this is because I don't have it very developed.

Therefore, I wonder, what is more important?

On the one hand, many people support the idea that the aim of a work is to earn a lot of money, without caring the activity you are doing because it is not the point.

On the other hand, other people suggest that as you are spending a lot of hours working, the activity you do, has to be something you love, because if it is not, you won’t be happy at all. Leaving money in a second place.

In my view earning money in a job is as important as loving the job, so the best you can do is to find a balance between both items to be happy.

This makes me wonder, what is the text trying to tell us?

In the first paragraph, is said that as rice (children) is one of the most important things in the world, some advice will be given to help us “raise our rice” (educate our children) properly. Establishing the analogy between rice and children in each one of these tips.

“It takes patience care and a tremendous amount of work” are the words used in the text to explain how challenging the process is, both to educate a child and to rise a rice plantation.

To add more, in another part of the text it is also said: “provide a proper environment…care for them properly and they will grow to be mature, tender and strong” giving us a clear and strong message.

To sum up, in my view the text through the symbolism of rice, is trying to tell us that children are the most important thing we have since they are the future, that is why we must be there, teach them well and provide them all the good things we can to make them “grow” properly.

Sang Ly, Nisay and Ki travel in this bus in which apparently most of the people who are traveling are richer than them.

The problem begins when Nisay starts crying and the rest of the people on the bus start to get irritated. This is why Ki suggests that Sang Ly read him a story to calm him down.

What none of them expected was that the story not only calmed Nisay but also all the rest of the bus passengers who listened carefully and asked Sang Ly to keep on reading.

When they reached their destination, there was still a page to go to finish the book, so a businessman who was traveling with them offered to distract the bus driver so that they could finish the story.

At the end of the chapter, we are told that when this businessman got off the bus, he gave Sang Ly some money as a thank you for reading
