story & summary

The Story of Tom's Diner

A woman named Suzanne walked in a coffee shop in one morning, and happened something. She was waiting for the waiter to pull coffee for her. She seemed to argue with the counter. Another woman walked in and the counter was greeting to her who was shaking her umbrella. Suzanne was reading newspapers, and an actor died because of drinking. And then, a girl saw herself in reflection, but she did not see Suzanne. She was hitching her stockings, and her hair was getting wet. After finishing her coffee, Suzanne was going to catch the train. And, that was all the happening during the coffee shop in that morning. (Time: 7min, 114 words)


Summary of “Changing Roles: Stay-at-Home Dads”

The article “Changing Roles: Stay-at-Home Dads” talks about the role of “Dads.” Nowadays, the society of parental roles has changed, and more and more men with marriage play an important role both in their families and job. They not only have to take care of their children at home but also have to do their job well. According to the reading, fathers today are expected to take more responsibility for child rearing than they did before. Also, some people like seeing the image of fatherhood include the role of caretaker in addition to provider. As far as I am concerned, society now regards fathers as important as mothers. It is not “men outsides, women insides” anymore. They should be viewed as equal. To sum up, fathers in raising children are more and more significant.

Hi leefan:
Through my reading of your summary about a song and a story which talked about dad's responsibility. I feel your contents are better than me. Good work.
And you have a mistake with a word, that is"pull" you should translate it to "pour". I think this is the only mistake i read.
What the words you use are excellant that i never thought to use it.
Eventually, you seem not to be thoughtful. As a result of i suppose that you can speak well English, you must do your best to finish this summary. Anyway, your summary is better than me.

Hi~Fan~
This is a beautiful song with light melody!And it is special because just a little accompaniment.

The second part of your article talks about Stau-at-Home Dads.Have you ever think about this: If your husband wants to play this role, will you agree? I feel this question is good think over and discuss.

At last, I have some tips to tell you. Maybe you can summary a song by putting more emotions, not just write down the plot of them. You could express what you feel about and make it stronger!After that, you will catch my eyes and all the heart of readers.I hope these tips could help you^^
