Introduction Paragraph [PARA 1]
* Choose the Novel : The novel
I studied is We Didn’t Mean To Go
To Sea by Arthur Ransome.
*
Answer
the question: I enjoy reading this novel because it has many interesting elements such as
admirable characters, good moral
values and exciting events.
.
Textual Evidence 1 [EV1]
-
Firstly, I admire one of the main character
in this novel. He is John Walker, the eldest
of the Walker siblings
- I admire John Walker because he is very knowledgeable and capable.
- For example, in this novel John uses
his knowledge about sailing that he learns from his father to steer the Goblin when they drift out to
sea. Despite the lack of experience, John is able to sail the Goblin in the fog, in heavy rain and
strong wind. John handles the Goblin well by making the sail smaller during the terrible storm at
sea .
-These positive qualities are admirable and a good example for children.
Textual Evidence 2 [EV2]
- Besides, I also enjoy reading this novel because it contains good values.
- One of the important
values that I learnt from this novel is we must be brave to face challenges at
all times. –This value was portrayed by John and his siblings when
they were on the Goblin. Although John feels tired, he tries his hardest to
steer the Goblin against the storm to save his siblings. Meanwhile,
Susan and Titty did not make too much fuss when they were seasick.
- Thus, we must be brave to cope with
unexpected situations and challenges in our life.
Textual Evidence 3[EV3]
- Moreover, I enjoy the most exciting event in the novel when the children are caught in
the storm.
- On the stormy night
the wind and waves throw the Goblin violently on the sea. Water fills the
cockpit and cabin. John almost fell into the sea when he made the sail smaller.
- This highlighted event is exciting as well
as frightening because John and his siblings are young and inexperienced. This event also shows we must not give up easily and
learn to believe in ourselves.
Conclusion [Sum up & give
your opinion]
- These are the reasons why I enjoy reading the novel
- I really enjoyed reading this novel because it gives the reader encouraging messages that one can apply in daily life.
