Analysis

If your story happened in a foreign land, compare that country to Singapore.

Singapore would be much cleaner. With much less risks of goods being destroyed as a result of air transport, there would be less lost of goods through ships and sea. There would be less loaning from each other with unreasonable demands as a result of not returning as there would be banks that could be easily accessed to retrieve or borrow money. Thus if the story was written in Singapore, it would be a completely different scenario and there would be no interesting parts in the new story.

Write a different ending to the book. Tell why you changed it.

In the end, Portia, although she loves Bassanio very much, decided to leave him as he did not keep his promise of forever keeping the ring in his hand as a symbol that they would always be together. I changed it this way because then it would have a tragic ending where it suits the middle part of the book where it states that the ring would be a symbol whereby he have to always keep on.

Tell five ways the main character is like you

To me, Antonio is the main character.
He is like me because:

1. He values friendship very much.

2. He sometimes take unnecessary risks.

3. He is Christian.

4. He is not very rich nor is he very poor.

5. He would do anything for someone who is very close to him.
