Jones expresses these dilemmas within his story through an immense selection of literary devices and techniques. While preparing her daughter for her first day of school, the mother in the story puts a lot of time and effort into making sure her little girl's outer appearance is superb. By directly including the phrase, "like everything else I have on, my pale green slip and underwear are brand new," Jones throws the reader a bone, so to speak. This is a simple statement that Jones injects into his story to give the reader an opportunity to expand upon and potentially question the significance of the brand new clothes.

The “simple” English was used for Tan when she spoke to her mother; the “broken” English was used for Tan’s mother to speak to her.

Imagine you are Miss Caroline. Write a letter to a friend, where you recount your experiences of your first day teaching at May comb County Primary Dear Prue, My first day teaching at May Comb County was a fascinating experience that has enabled me to learn a large amount about the town of May comb and the students in my class. I would have presumed for only the first grade, a large majority of the class would hardly know the alphabet but I was very mistaken. Every boy and girl in the classroom knew the alphabet from back to front, at first I thought this was just outstanding until I realised that the majority of them had repeated the first grade. I’ve learnt that these children do not have patience or respect, while I was trying to teach they a story they were squirming round like pigs.
The sew-in has excelled from the traditional techniques; new techniques such as the braid less sew-in, versatile sew-in, and the vixen sew in have made its way to the hair-sewing world. Stylists no longer have to use a net while sewing hair; stylists today use different braiding patterns so the hair would be flat on the woman’s head and not noticeable. The sew-in method continues to transition over the years, stylists would like for their customers to feel as if they weren’t wearing extensions at all. The trend with sew-ins today is to look as if the sew-in was your natural hair. Women may wash

DEALING WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE We area all difficult in a way, from the point of view of others. That is the basic we must understand in order to work with others. We all know that there are people who are simply hard to work or get along with, and unfortunately, facing these kinds of people is inevitable. How difficult a person is for you to deal with is determined by your self-esteem, your self-confidence, your level of professionalism and your courage. Dealing with difficult people is easier when the person is just generally intolerable or when the person’s behavior affects more than one person in the same work environment.
