How about bullying?

Bullying consists of three basic types of abuse – emotional, verbal and physical.

What has the tsunami taught me?

We all know what happened to Japan recently; and in fact, the disaster has not reached to its end. Except for showing our sympathy for the victims, what have we learned from this historically devastating tsunami? We have heard people talking about the amounts of money people donated, e.g., President Ma and Mayor Hao.

Reflection:

Even though the Annex Residents were in hiding, they didn’t miss any festival, anniversary, and birthday. I think it’s the way that they made themselves feel better and happier. They were stuck in the Annex like jailbirds, so they had to find some way to amuse themselves with. Otherwise, the atmosphere there would grow deathly still.
