An essay on The Door in the Wall.

Our L/L writing teacher asked to write an Essay of 400-500 words and she give us two stories to choose: " The Door in the Wall"  or "The fly in the Ointment". I choose "The Door in the Wall" because i like very much the story, this idea of describing a magic Door and also the themes where more interesting. Writing this i think it was the most difficult piece of writing we have to be careful with the organizarion of the text.

The Door in the Wall, by H.G Wells talks about a boy that discovers a door and his friend Redmond does not believe him. In that magical door he finds all his childhood. Finally he dies when he enters in the door into the construction. The author shows in the story the Loneliness about his life, then the insanity and finally Reality versus Imagination.
In the story, Loneliness is always present in wallace because when he is only two years old his mother dies and this father does not pays attention to him. This thing of describing a door, a magical door, and Wallace was five years old when he enters the first time in the door, so he starts imaging thingsand he is so alone that the only person that can tell about this Door in the Wall is Redmond. So when Wallace can tell this to Redmond he does not believe him because nobody believe that he has a magical door.
A very important Theme in the story is the preoccupation of Wallace insanity, he always escapes from the reality by going inside the door like in one point scapes fron the bad things that happens in real life. If nobody pays attention, he goes into the door and felt better. In another hand he scapes from real life because in the door he looks for all his childhood and felt very well with all this. Redmond that does not believe  about this door is very worried for Wallace. In Wallace´s many things happen that here not good for his life, so immediately he goes inside the door and all disappears. He escapes from the real problems instead of facing the problems in the real life.
The third theme and very important is the reality versus Imagination. Wallace starts confusing the reality versus imagination, Wallace reality as very bad so he takes imagination of inside the door to the reality. Inside the door it was all right, he begins to see the places of his childhood and the good moments that he had, so the imagination in reality is so big that one day he get inside the door and get inside the construction and dies.
The Door in the Wall shows that you have does not escapes from the problems. You hace to face it and solve it in one way, so in my opinion reading this book made me realizes that i have to face the problems of my life because if not i can not continue.

Short Story.

For L/L writing we have to write a short story between 500-600 word, our teacher give us to choose two ideas to the story: "Solcial classes" or "A drama between a mom and a child" y choose the second because i think it was more interesting and grate idea.
 Feelings that do wrong.
It was a beautiful day in a house of Australia, one family decided to go on a picnic. These was a mother (Sara) a father (Charl) a son (Tom) of 16 years old and a little girl of 5 called Sophy. Sara worked in an office and Charl  worked in a factory. In the family Tom had a strongest personality. He was very jealous of Sophy. Some hours after when the family was in the park, Tom started analysing the situation. He took the conclusion that they always looked at Sophy. Nobody paid attention to Tom, when they were in the picnic Tom saw that his parents always looked at her giving presents to Sophy. When she wanted to have something they went and brought the toy or whatever she wanted. Everyone knew that Tom was a very jealous boy, but it always happened the same, parents started controlling him giving some toy or some material thing, but Tom saw that they didnt only gave toys or material things to Sophy, they also gave her love, and he didnt recive love, apart of being very jelous in that moment he was very sad because he thought that his parents didnt love him. At one moment, when they were in the park, Sophy wanted an ice-cream that was at the place and Charl went and bougth an ice-cream for Sophy and not for Tom. Tom was feeling very Bad he didnt want to be any more at that house like this. Two days after when they came to the house, Tom was still with a bad face, nobody could take that horrible face, so it was like if he had seen a monster. Tom was so jealous that one night when Sophy was sleeping and his mother and father too, Tom with a knife went  to the bedroom and cut Sophy's arm. After that, he really regreted that. When all the family woke up in the morning he was still sleeping. Sara went to Sophy's bedroom and saw that in Sophy's head she had a little thing, Everyone knew that Tom was who did it. Everyone looked at Tom, so when Tom got up and saw the cut on the head of his sister, he didnt say anything, but inside he was terribly sad of the thing that he did to his sister. His parents were so scared because of the thing that Sophy had in he head. So une day very slow when they were eating at night, they started to talk about this thing that happened to Sophy and in one moment Tom couldnt hold this inside so he said that he had done it. He started to tell all the things that he felt inside, he started feeling that he was very Jelous about Sophy and that he was very sad. Also he told that they always paid attention to Sophy and he was always at the side of the family, that he thought that nobody looked at him when he told all this to his parents. They felt very bad and obvius by took care of the situation. They said that it would all change and they would pay attention to him, and he always had to talk to his parents first. They didnt know that  was happening because they didnt pay attention to that. And from that day Sara and Charl started loving Sophy and Tom very much and Tom haved Sophy too.
End.
