Read this passage from "An Hour with Abuelo” by Judith Ortiz Cofer.My mother tells me that Don Arturo had once been a teacher ba
ck in Puerto Rico, but had lost his job after the war. Then he became a farmer. She’s always saying in a sad voice, "Ay, bendito. What a waste of a fine mind.” Then she usually shrugs her shoulders and says, "Así es la vida.” That’s the way life is. It sometimes makes me mad that the adults I know just accept whatever *rap is thrown at them because "that’s the way things are.” Not for me. I go after what I want.The author most likely includes both Arturo’s and his mother’s perspectives tocontrast the characters.compare the characters.reveal Don Arturo’s perspective.change the point of view in the passage.
Because you want your headline to make you stand out as a strong candidate, avoid clichés that employers probably see on every resume. Phrases like “hard worker” and “good communication skills” are common on resumes, and do not provide much information on what makes you unique.
