I read Flower Garden by Shirley Jackson. This story is about a woman named Mrs. MacLane. She came to a new town and meat young Winning and they became friends. One day Mrs. MacLane decided to employ Billy Jones, a young boy who is half-Caucasian and half-African American to take care of her garden but after while Jones’s dad came take care of Mrs. MacLane’s garden. Everyone started to hate Mrs. MacLane just because she emploed an African American.
I picked Person against Society for my significant elements to discuss. Person against Society happens when the protagonist is in conflict with the values of his or her society. I think Person against Society is related to this story because in the beginning of the story, young Winning tried to defence Mrs. MacLane but in end of the story everyone in the town including young Winning thinks that she made everyone.
Daniel, you are correct the conflict in this story is person-against-society. You are very perceptive.
ReplyDelete2/5 points. There are mechanical, spelling and grammatical errors. For example, you use the word, "meat" when I think you mean met,l and you wrote, "emploed" when you meant employed. Additionally, there are content and structure errors. You need to further substantiate your ideas with examples from the text. Your paragraphs need to be structured so that you have a topic sentence, supporting ideas, and transition sentences. This feels like a "bare bones" entry. You need to further develop your ideas.
