First of all, in
my opinion, I don’t think I am a writer with my first language Chinese. An
essay writing in Chinese is not only expressing my entire opinions, but also
need many different kinds of decorating words. For example, if I will write a
person’s characteristics, I
can write them immediately. I need use some figures of speech such as metaphor,
personification and zoosemy. I don’t think it is quite easy, because of
learning how to use these figures of speech I should reading many books. Also
in Chinese writing, I also need add famous words as much as I can. In the same
manner, I think writing in English is easier. I don’t need to add many famous
words in my essay, however I just need to present my own opinions. The most
difficult of writing in English is combining two simple sentences and how to
present my opinion in English. I usually write many simple sentences in the
test, nevertheless I have to spend much time on combining these sentences. It’s
very waste time, if I can write complicated sentences initially, it can save
much time.
Furthermore, I write my digital story about traveling in Hong Kong by recalling
my trip’s details. Then write an outline about the trip and add more details. I
think my classmates’ comments are very useful. I can realize that which part is
not very clear and which part is I need put more detail to explain.
In addition, I have knowledge the definition of plagiarism. I think the
definition of plagiarism in USA is very different from the definition in China.
In China, I always write an essay with many famous persons’ words without
quotation mark. In the same manner, in American this situation is plagiarism.
Therefore, I need to check my essay after I finished. I will make sure that I
didn’t miss any quotation marks.
