Commentary for World War II
If you
can’t solve problems with peace, you can never solve with war. The statement I
just spoke is my favourite proverb and I agree to it because it makes a lot of
sense to me. Hello! I am Tien Pao and I am a survivor from World War 2. When I
was about 7 years old, the World War 2 struck China. My family was homeless and
I was separated from my family and this is going to be my topic to be my topic
for this commentary.
First I
would like to talk about my experience. I was separated from my family and I was
left starving for days. I think my own experience was very harsh for a kid aged
liked me, that’s why I don’t like the concept of wars. I feel war doesn’t solve
your problems, but includes more problems and pressure on you.
Next I
would like to talk about the war itself and how much destruction happened. I
lived in a small river town called Hengyang and few days later, it was a burned
town. In a few days the whole town was burned. Many family were homeless and had
no belonging left. I think this is not fair for the Chinese as their motherland
was being dominated.
My
experience was not so different with the other families abroad. When I went to
America the next month after war. Many families were still separated and many
were homeless and without food. It wasn’t a big difference to which the
Japanese have done to China and America, but America’s condition was still
better. I believe America’s condition was better because their government helped
them financially and socially.
Once
again, I believe that war was useless because it didn’t solve any of their
problems. Therefore, we should now solve problems with peace because war brings
a very harsh experience towards the younger generation. I would like to end by
saying my favourite proverb again: If you can’t solve problems with peace, you
can never solve with war.
