Write about the moral values found in the novel.
sample (1)
There are many moral values found in The Curse by
Lee Su Ann. The story is set in an island off Langkawi Island. The Curse
revolves around the events surrounding the death of a village girl, Madhuri,
who is also the adopted sister of themain character, Azreen.
The first moral value is bravery. This value is
shown by Azreen. First, even as a young girl she takes challenges and tries to
prove to her friends that the Old Lady is not an evil witch. When she is yelled
at for entering the Old Lady’s house and destroying her vegetable garden,
Azreen bravely defends herself. In fact, she returns the next day and repairs
the trampled garden. Her action wins the Old Lady’s heart.
The second evidence is when Azreen bravely takes the
blame for Mohd Asraf in the bull incident. She demonstrates courage.The same
bull later injures her mother’s leg causing he to lose the use of her leg. She
was blamed and scolded by her father as well as the villagers. She bravely
endures that and never tells anyone of what really happened.
Her bravery is once again tested. The third event
that displays her bravery is when she tries to tackle the angry mob who are
about to attack the the Old Lady. When the Old Lady’s house is in fire, Azreen
tries to rescue the Old Lady but at the end she has to be rescued by her
father. When the Old Lady dies in the tragic fire, she confronts Mohd Asraf
like a wildcat.
Finally, towards the end of the story, she finds out
the secret that her father has been keeping. She confronts her father about
Madhuri’s murder until he is forced to confess about the truth. She is very
brave to confront people whom she knows have done wrong to others. At the same
time she is very brave when defending herself and the people she loves.

The novel that I
choose is The Curse by Lee Su Ann. The story is about the mysterious death of
Azreen’s adopted sister, Madhuri, and how Azreen goes through everything to
find out the truth behind the death. A moral value that I have leant in the
story is bravery.
This value is shown by
Azreen. First, even as a young girl she takes challenges and tries to prove to
her friends that the Old Lady is not an evil witch. When she is yelled at for
entering the Old Lady’s house and destroying her vegetable garden, Azreen
bravely defends herself. In fact, she returns the next day and repairs the
trampled garden. Her action wins the Old Lady’s heart.
The second evidence is
when Azreen bravely takes the blame for Mohd Asraf in the bull incident. She
demonstrates courage. The same bull later injures her mother’s leg causing her
to paralyze. She was blamed and scolded by her father as well as the villagers.
She bravely endures that and never tells anyone of what really happened.
The third event that
displays her bravery is when she tries to tackle the angry people who are about
to attack the the Old Lady. When the Old Lady’s house is in fire, Azreen tries
to rescue the Old Lady but at the end she has to be rescued by her father. When
the Old Lady dies in the tragic fire, she confronts Mohd Asraf like a wildcat.
Finally, towards the
end of the story, she finds out the secret that her father has been keeping.
She confronts her father about Madhuri’s murder until he is forced to confess
about the truth.
As conclusion, bravery is the moral
value that I have learnt through Azreen. For me, Azreen is very brave to
confront people whom she knows have done wrong to others. At the same time she
is very brave when defending herself and the people she loves.
