    b) Provide an example:

    The “raised fist” over the years has become a symbol of black nationalism.

    9a) What is one of your favorite works of literature?

    None at the moment. I’m currently going down the philosophy route and gradually getting back into literature.

    b) Why do you like it? (full sentence, please)

    N/A

    10a) What is one of your favorite films?

    I currently don’t have any favorite films as well. Though, growing up I did enjoy the Hunger Games franchise a lot.

    b) Why do you like it? (full sentence please)

    I liked it for the action and anticipation.

    11a) Who is one of your favorite writers?

    N/A

    N/A

    b) Why do you like this director? (full sentence)

    N/A

    13) After you have read a story and later seen its film version, are you pleased or disappointed?

    From the times I have done this, I was normally disappointed. The books were usually more detailed with their scenes than the movies. Likely due to the time constraints and budget of movies. Certain details in movies not being synchronous with the books were not a big, but still another disappointment for me. For example, the main character’s pet being a turtle in the book version, but a cat in the movie version.

    Please name at least one title and explain why…14) Why do you think film versions change details from their source stories?

    I can’t remember any specific titles at the moment. But, I think one of the reasons they do this is for efficiency. They are probably considering manageability, along with the budget and time constraints.
