Question

Q 1. You have studied ‘nostalgia’ in Language and ‘Treasure Island’ in Literature. Read the following excerpt about a grown-up sharing his/her childhood memories about watching Treasure Island on TV. Imagine that you are the grown-up and complete it. What do you remember about it? Try to maintain a tone that is nostalgic. Quote the fondest memories from the serial (you will use your reading but portray it as the serial) and relate it to some effect it had on your personality back then. For e.g, you tried to copy a character or did something that suggested that you were inspired by the T.V serial at that age.

Q 1. You have studied ‘nostalgia’ in Language and ‘Treasure Island’ in Literature. Read the following excerpt about a grown up sharing his/her childhood memories about watching Treasure Island on TV. Imagine that you are the physically timid, and turn away in trepidation even from some of the more adventurous rides in Thorpe Park. But the imagination does, after all, exist to fill the gaps in one’s personal experience, and no story looms larger in my imagination, even now, than does Treasure Island. There is many a book I enjoyed as a child, but which are impossible to enjoy as an adult, not even with all the mitigating factors afforded by nostalgia. Treasure Island, however, needs no mitigating factor at all: quite simply, there has not been a better adventure story written. From the very opening paragraph, where Captain Billy Bones knocks on the door of the inn run by Jim’s father, I am hooked. And after that, it is one adventure after another. ____Previous Next Challenges to complete WE'RE IN THE KNOW This site is using cookies under cookie policy.
