Abomination English Essay

 Abomination didn’t get treated with simple human rights. He was kept in a cage his whole life until Martha told someone and he finally started to get treated like should after his mum took custody of him. He had never been outside or seen the sunlight and was spoon fed food and was still in nappies at the age of seven. He had no education and wasn't taught any words so he couldn’t say anything, resulting in him not being able to communicate with people or ask for help because he didn’t know how. He was basically taught that if he screams and makes a lot of noise then he might get fed.

Abomination's a boy, Scott. A little boy he lives in the cellar in a cage (pg 143)

Dear Miss Anna Taylor,



I am writing to you because I am interested in applying for finance from TRM Inc. I understand that there is special funding available for new businesses who have innovative ideas.



Our business is called Berries And Cream. Berries And Cream is an ice cream shop where people can come in and customise the ice cream of their choice with the toppings that they desire. There are not many ice cream shops in Christchurch and the closest one to Hornby is half an hour away. We believe that lots of people will want to come to our shop because people love ice cream and is a great treat to help cool you down on a hot summer day. Machinery will cost $101,060 and for ice cream and toppings will cost us 137 dollars. I will charge 7 dollars for toppings and 2 dollars for ice cream.


Thank you for considering my application, I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.


Yours sincerely,




Lily steel.

Humanities Essay Planning

 Breach means to not have followed it or broken it


All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.  They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

-Means no one is born different from others - can't be born into slavery and kept in a cage. -You have access to basic human rights-food water and shelter.


Martha- Born into religious cult, has basic rights but no personal freedom.

-Martha is treated like a slave by her parents.

-Martha is treated like a slave by her parents

Quotes- no friend because of righteous

-not allowed radio

The righteous believe the devil reaches young people through pop music (Pg 11)

I know i seem weird to them but it's not me, inside I'm just like them (pg 18)

Abomination/Jim- Born and kept in a cage, not allowed outside. 

-Has basic human rights.

 -Lost rights to education,love, freedom and socialisation. 

- no clothes 

Quotes- Kid in basement Martha talking to Scott  

- Jim doesn't see his mum.

Abomination's a boy, Scott. A little boy he lives in the cellar in a cage (pg 143)

'And she lets her kid live in a cage?... She doesn't know (Pg 146)


Why do you think the author wants us to know that Martha had her human rights breached? 

Makes us feel upset, empathy, sympathy for Martha

-We forgive Martha for keeping a secret about Jim because she is also suffering.


Why do you think the author writes all of these things about Jim? Good story telling, Builds suspense and tension, Makes us feel sorry for Jim, Feel anger at the parents

-Shows negative influence of bulling


Do you think the issue was resolved in a way that was restored Martha's human rights? Yes she went to live with her sister, gets new clothes, not treated different or like a slave.


Do you think the issue was resolved in a way that was restored Jim's human rights? Gets to socialise, see his mum, clothes, freedom, priority, love.

Trauma- not going to have a normal life, going to find it hard to learn.
