a tip

If you ever come to a point in your life when you have the opportunity to write the paragraphs that teachers read to students for the listening portion of a standardized test...
I implore you: PLEASE do not, in your attempt to be multicultural, name one of the characters "Mr. Wang."

It will only cause 8th grade boys to laugh while their proctor is unable to read because she is giggling.



Also, avoid dangling modifiers. There's nothing that makes me cringe quite like reading a grammatically incorrect sentence aloud. Especially when it's the part of the standardized test that the kids are listening to so they can answer the succeeding questions.
