1. The questions I struggled with the most were…

I was struggled to answer the question--- "What do you consider your greatest achievement?". Although I have no imagination on how my future going to be, I believe all the achievement right now is only a tip of the iceberg.


2. The answers I will probably change in 5 years are…(because)...

The answer that I will probably change in 5 years is "What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?", "What do you most dislike about your appearance?", and "What is it that you most dislike."


3. The answers that surprised me the most were….

The question, "What is your greatest extravagance," surprised me the most, since I do not usually notice what I waste.


4. The questions I had an instinctual reaction to and could easily answer were...

The question, "What is your motto" made me felt to have an instinctual reaction to answer since this reveals my real opinion.


5. Then...Expand on one...for example, if your answer to number 29 was “Marie Antoinette”, explain why in a short paragraph.

I would like to elaborate upon the question #27, "Who are your favorite writers?". I believe Harriet Beecher Stowe, as my favorite writes, who writes opinionated works and against half of the society’s slavery system, opened the eyes of Americans and Europeans to the horrors of slavery. Especially, the novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin, not only made me and the audience who read it in the south aware of their cruelty and more empathetic in forcing the blacks into slavery, but also depicted the harsh conditions for enslaved African Americans. Therefore, I viewed Harriet Beecher Stowe, a white woman, as who expressed her feelings through a literary representation of slavery to energizing anti-slavery forces, a conflict that is so opinionated which was downright dangerous at that time.
