Form 3 Poem: Poisoned Talk – Raymond Wilson | Meanings, Vocabs, Themes & Moral values| – PT3 ENGLISH
Themes: 1. Environmental Pollution Men are willing to destroy our mother nature for more money and power. The factories, cars, and other vehicles release poisonous gas and substances like mercury. This pollutes the lake and the flora and fauna in it. 449 Shares
2. Destruction of nature.
440Nature has flora and fauna. They a韚�ect one another. When the lake gets polluted, the fish that lives in it will get poisoned. When the birds eat the fishes,
the birds get poisoned. Also, if the wind is polluted, it brings the poisonous gas everywhere; all plants will wither and die. In the end, it destroys our mother 9 nature.
Moral Values: 1. We must be responsible for the things we do. 2. We must take actions to stop pollutions. 3. We must respect nature. 4. We must appreciate the Earth. 5. We must not be too greedy. (for money and power) 6. We must protect our environment. I try to make things as simple as I can, If you have any questions, drop them in the comment box below, we will get back to you asap. Happy Learning , Happy Teaching.

Hi Ammarhg, Your questions depend on your own interpretation. Here are my suggested answers: 1. How does the killer feel about his crime? =The killer feel proud / The killer is not sorry about it. 2. What is the weapon used by this killer? = The killer builds factories and cars to pollute the environment. 3. What does the word ‘like’ refer to ? =(there is not ‘like’ in the poem) 4. Which word in stanza 3 tells you that the sulphur dioxide is very determined in killing the forest? =’boasted’ 5. If you can do one thing to save the environment, what will you do ? = Reduce and recycle rubbish. Hope this helps you.

Hi Anonymous Student, Yes, I would have guessed the same too. 449 Shares

Sulphur dioxide killed the forest and all life with it. In science, we learn that sulphur dioxide reacts with the rain to form acid rain. Sulphur dioxide + rain –> acid rain. So when acid rain is formed, the wind blows it over the forest and kill all life within it.

Hi, it’s hard to say really. but I’d say the following: 1.understand the content of the poem, 2. know the meaning of each word & line. 3. know its themes and moral lessons. 4. be able to provide suggestions and your own opinions.
