Your task
1) Read the following extract from Games at Twilight:
Ravi sat back on the harsh edge of the tub, deciding to hold out a bit longer. What fun if they were all found and caught-he alone left unconquered! He had never known that sensation. Nothing more wonderful had ever happened to him than being taken out by an uncle and bought a whole slab of chocolate all to himself, or being flung into the soda-man’s pony cart and driven up to the gate by the friendly driver with the red beard and pointed ears. To defeat Raghu- that hirsute, hoarse-voiced football champion- and to be the winner in a circle of older, bigger, luckier children –that would be thrilling beyond imagination.
2) Write a PEE paragraph explaining how the writer has tried to capture the thoughts and feelings of the boy, Ravi, who has successfully hidden from Raghu during a game of hide-and-seek.
3) Now watch the following clip:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxPZh4AnWyk of the singing sensation Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent!
Write an article persuading young people to agree or disagree with the following statement: Britain does not stereotype and accepts all for who they are! REMEMBER TO USE THOSE ALL IMPORTANT PERSUASIVE TOOLS!
