You have just received your final exam result for the accounting course. You think the teacher has unfairly awarded you a C grade as he forgot his commitment. The teacher had announced that all those students who used the Optimal Cost Method in the exam will get 6 additional marks. You are sure, you did not get these marks. Although, you work in a restaurant to meet your expenses, you have only missed two classes. Also, you have a very good understanding of accounts due to the teacher’s very good method of explaining the concepts which made the course very enjoyable. TASK: Write a memo to your teacher to correct this mistake and alter your grade to B from C. Use the correct memo format (assume the name of the teacher). Make sure, your understanding of the WRITING PROCESS and the 7 C’s is clearly demonstrated in this memo. Word count: 150 - 170

Subject: Correction in my Course Grade

Date: December 2, 2020

Sir, I wish to draw your attention to my Accounting Course 203 Grade, which was put as C, instead of B.

I understand that I made a C grade in the course.  However, it seems that you forgot to add the 6 additional marks that you promised those who used the Optimal Cost Method in the exam.  I used this method to answer the relevant questions.

If you award me the additional 6 marks my course grade will move to B.  Could you look into this issue to make the necessary adjustment?

I look forward to receiving a revised grade.

Regards,

Explanation:

A memo is a brief message, usually used internally within an organization.  It bears a special format, which indicates the receiver, sender, subject, and date of the message.  It is an official means of communication in an organization.  It is widely used for interaction between bosses and their subordinates.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !

serve the people! ,” smoothly translated by julia lovell, offers an initial sample of yan lianke’s writing to an english-speaking audience. a bluntly drawn, mildly erotic fable, it teases mao zedong by poking fun at a true believer who obeys the chairman’s precepts too literally. to a western sensibility, the broad strokes of yan lianke’s humor would seem to pose little risk of inciting rebellion, whether of the flesh or of the body politic. but then, part of the book’s attraction is that it doesn’t have a western sensibility. it lets the reader see — or rather, intuit — what jokes chinese officials don’t consider funny, and how very little it takes for a writer to be branded an incendiary in 21st-century china, more than three decades after the death of mao, a decade after the death of deng xiaoping and seven years since china entered the world trade organization, a move that would seem to signal a willingness (however wary) to mingle with the rest of the world.
