Read: ‘Chasing Memories’ In Their Refugee Camp 40 Years After

Fleeing Vietnam , by Hansi Lo Wang (2015)

What is the Lo Wang’s main purpose in writing this piece? Cite evidence from the text in your response.

Answer:

The 40-year reunion was important for the former refugees because the Refugee Camp was their home at the time and they need to reconnect with those who they met there as a means to preserve their family history.

Explanation:

Although the refugees didn´t spend more than a few months at Fort Indiantown Gap, 40 years later they felt the need to reconnect with the people they had met there.  

Like many others, Lo Wang’s mother was disappointed not to find anyone she had known back then because the refugees lost contact after leaving the site.

1. You have learned a little bit about many of the characters in The Canterbury Tales, and you have learned a lot about the Wife
Tanya [424]
<span>Squire With him there was his son, a youthful squire, A lover and a lusty bachelor, With locks well curled, as if they'd laid in press. Some twenty years of age he was, I guess. In stature he was of an average length, Wondrously active, aye, and great of strength. He'd ridden sometime with the cavalry In Flanders, in Artois, and Picardy, And borne him well within that little space In hope to win thereby his lady's grace. Prinked out he was, as if he were a mead, All full of fresh-cut flowers white and red. Singing he was, or fluting, all the day; He was as fresh as is the month of May. Short was his gown, with sleeves both long and wide. Well could be sit on horse, and fairly ride. He could make songs and words thereto indite, Joust, and dance too, as well as sketch and write. So hot he loved that, while night told her tale, He slept no more than does a nightingale. Courteous he, and humble, willing and able, And carved before his father at the table.</span>

Compare &amp; contrast 2 different multimodal texts with one theme or subject. Then write 3 sentences showing their similarities
Phoenix [80]

Overview of multimodal literacy

A multimodal text conveys meaning th​​rough a combination of two or more modes, for example, a poster conveys meaning through a combination of written language, still image, and spatial design. Each mode has its own specific task and function (Kress, 2010, p. 28) in the meaning making process, and usually carries only a part of the message in a multimodal text. In a picture book, the print and the image both contribute to the overall telling of the story but do so in different ways.

Images may simply illustrate or expand on the written story, or can be used to tell different aspects of the story, even contradicting the written words (Guijarro and Sanz, 2009, p. 107).

Effective multimodal authors creatively integrate modes in various configurations to coherently convey the meaning required, ‘moving the emphasis backwards and forwards between the various modes' (Cope and Kalantzis, 2009. p. 423) throughout the text.

The complexity of the relationships between the various meaning or semiotic systems in a text increases proportionately with the number of modes involved. For example, a film text is a more complex multimodal text ​​than a poster as it dynamically combines the semiotic systems of moving image, audio, spoken language, written language, space, and gesture (acting) to convey meaning.
