‘It’s not the possessions that matter, it’s the memories associated with them.’ Write an article for a magazine about your most prized possessions. In your article,
you could include:
1. what the possessions are
2. facts or information about the possessions
3. why the possessions are ‘prized’

Answer and Explanation:

I always associate the value of things according to the stories and the memory they carry. For that reason, my most valuable asset is a teddy bear that my father gave to my mother when they were dating, many years before I was born.

although my parents' marriage did not work out and they are no longer together, I like to think that this teddy bear is part of my story, as an omen about my coming to this world.

The bear is valuable to me, whenever I feel sad and desperate about my life. Because I look at him and believe that my life has a purpose that will be achieved, otherwise, my parents would not have been together, my mother would never win this bear and I would never exist.

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
