English Resource Description
Sailor Sam, once a diligent worker, traded his routine life for the thrill of the open seas and the pursuit of adventure. His new life was filled with the wonders of the ocean, and he felt compelled to share his experiences with his former employer. The task of organizing paragraphs around a theme is exemplified through Sam's letters, where he vividly describes the marvels he encounters. From the diverse marine life to the relics resting on the seabed, Sam's narrative takes the reader on a journey beneath the waves. Although he never stumbles upon a chest brimming with gold, his discoveries are rich with the intrigue of the sea's hidden world.
In his communication, Sam adopts the role of a storyteller, recounting his deep-sea diving expeditions with a sense of awe and curiosity. His letters are not merely updates; they are windows into his soul, reflecting his transformation from a man of business to a man of the sea. The opening of his letter, set from his sailing boat in the 'Great Sea', captures the essence of his adventures. He addresses his 'Dear Old Boss' with a tone of camaraderie and nostalgia, before launching into the tale of his latest escapade. Through Sam's words, we are invited to imagine the contents of his letter, the treasures he describes, and the spirit of freedom that permeates his new life.
