Compositions

Composition 1: “Wow, So Pretty!”

Kids these days are so clever

When we were little we racked our brains to pad out the word count with a blow-by-blow account

This one just rattles it off in one breath

And between breaths still remembers to praise how pretty it is…

▽

Composition 2: “Family Portrait”

Classmate, a slap followed by a sweet date

Dad couldn’t get angry even if he wanted to!

▽

Composition 3: “A Poem”

It rhymes! The metaphors are apt!

Mum is delighted, Dad is speechless — you win!

▽

Composition 4: “Taking Out the Rubbish”

Kid, your inner drama could carry an entire episode of “Society and Law”

▽

Composition 5: “Fish”

Your logic is simply divine

So thoughtful!

I just want to see whether you’ll actually marry when you grow up!

▽

Composition 6: “If I Had Only 3 Days to Live”

The teacher’s comment, after coughing up three bowls of blood:

By your reckoning, I’m already a “thousand-year-old demon”…

▽

Composition 7: “The Drowned Fish”

Kid, you do need some common sense

Otherwise everyone else has 365 days a year and you have 366

▽

Composition 8: “Another Poem”

So young and already seeing through life

Having seen through the vanity of the world — even through the screen I can feel a faint sorrow

▽

Composition 9: “Love”

Concise and to the point, with a process and an outcome; 100 marks for imagery

▽

Composition 10: “Me in Twenty Years”

The teacher is falling apart inside: kid, I only want what’s best for you

And this is the future you arrange for me…

▽

Composition 11: “His Life”

The protagonist dies as soon as he appears. Kid, don’t become a screenwriter

Or no one in your TV series will survive more than one episode
