The characters in the story are all stock characters that have been used in many works. Santiago is the hero that has flaws that will be fixed as the plot goes on. Melchizedek is the wise old man that had knowledge that the protagonist needs. Fatima is the girl that distracts the protagonist from achieving his goal as he falls in love with her. This goes on for every single character in the story. The plot has also been used many times. The plot is basically about a man who gets rich from a dream. The Man of Bhagdad, Treasure Under the Bridge, and Upsall Castle are all stories that had used this plot before this book was written. All of this goes to prove that no work is ever original, because it uses stories that were written

For Mrs. Hewes the Introduction to Social Work class we were asked to interview a licensed Social Worker and write an experience paper about the interview. Finding a social worker to interview wasn’t very hard for me because many of my mother’s friends got their masters in social work, but not many of them actually got their license except for one of them. The licensed social worker that I interviewed goes by the name of Tanya Hill. Tanya got her Masters of Social Work at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida in 2000, as well as her license and she now resides in Panama City, Florida. Tanya is someone that I have known since I was a little girl and someone that I definitely aspire to be like once I graduate. My interview with Tanya was over the phone since I did not have time to drive back to Florida to do a face to face one, but while we were on the phone every answer she gave me to the questions I asked were quite interesting.

Characterisation is important in any short story as it helps to make the story that little bit more appealing, because it’s a short story, it is important to get the characterisation right as we don’t have hundreds of pages to learn about the character, in fact we only really have a page or two, maybe even less depending on the story, we might only have paragraphs to learn about the character. When looking at characterisation in the short story, you have too keep in mind, which character catches your eye? Is it the main character? Is it a supporting character? Why do they appeal to you? How does the author of the short story portray and reveal the character? The idea of characterisation is literally an act of describing certain characteristics,

So not only does she share what happened physically to her and the new surroundings she experienced, she also focuses on how she felt before, during, and after everything.

If you could meet anyone in the entire world, who would you want to choose? Certainly, there are plenty of options, but after reading my book “Lost Boy, Lost Girl,” by John Bul Dau and Martha Arual Akech, I would want to meet John because of his determination for survival, and the way he gives back to the people in his home country, I certainly admire that. Also, I would ask questions to John because of how strong he is. For example, he lost his parents, saw his tribe burn to the ground, and had to become the leader of a large group of children, only at the age of 13! Lastly, I would want to meet and ask John questions because of his intelligence through a time like this. For example, on page 82, John is able to distinguish the different engine noises between the Northern Sudanese planes and the UN planes giving them food, clothes, and medicine. This is amazing to me because in a time like this, a person that is able to distinguish the different types of plane engine noises is very key for survival.
