Hey there tabularasa,

i hjave to chose some RM to the quote its the journey not the arrival that mtters. any hints and it has to be a speech. I was thinking lost in translation and an article called enter the badlands.

Haha, looks like we're from the same school. Cos thats our Part B Speaking Task.
Well, I'll let you on some hints, go to sydney morning herald site, and search travel, look at the different feature articles. The travel section is really good in expressing the idea thta "the journey, not the arrival matters"

Anywayz, thats what our english teacher did as a sample..

Ok this is the question we get asked for nearly every text we review...

As for that question, I've also been asked that alot. And believe me, if you do alot of practice on answering these, you'll get really good at it. The best way to answer this question is to follow this approach:

1. Firstly, what type of text is this journey represented in?

2. Who goes on the journey?

3. When does the journey begin? and how does it end. If the composer does not provide an end to the journey like skrzynecki but gives u a beginning there must be a reason to it. (i.e. in crossing the red sea, the "equator waiting to be crossed" effectively conveys that there are still hardships to endure before one reaches his/her destination)

4. Why is the journey undertaken?

5. How is this physical journey conducted? (Keep also in mind, how long this journey is, because the longer it is, the more that can happen. I.e. Crossing the red sea is a really reflective type of poem. A voyage across the sea symbolises a form of cleansing to the refugess onboard the ship)

6. The Result of the journey?

7. How/Why the journey begins, and how does it end. If the composer does not provide an end to the journey like skrzynecki but gives u a beginning there must be a reason to it. (i.e. in crossing the red sea, the "equator waiting to be crossed" effectively conveys that there are still hardships to endure before one reaches his/her destination)

8. Through this physical journey, one also enters an inner journey. I remember a quote once "we headed for the same physical destination but arrived at a different mental destination."

These are kind of the basic..really basic structures, because unless I know specificly what text you are doing, the physical journey gets really broad.

Cheers,

Aeolior

Hey,
I am doing Castaway as my related material. Which of Skrzynecki's poems would be best to be linked to it.

It is best that you have 3 done and ready, but in exam conditions, they will ask you to refer to two at maximum. Three is best because one might fit a certain question and another might not. I got paranoid and did three because i was scared one of my texts would end up to be the given stimulus texts

 

[Aeolior]

Wooow

*follows kimmeh and does 3 supplementary texts =P

Hmm good idea actually... should our 3 texts be in different form? like Article, movie..etc? probably should...
