Term Papers on GCSE English Coursework Non-fiction Writing – Rainman.
GCSE English Coursework non-fiction Writing – Rainman. Considering how the film presents Raymond, who do you think is the best person to look after him? Rainman is a story about a man called Raymond Babbit, who has a condition called autism. He has inherited three million dollars from his recently deceased father, but because of the condition he is in, will not know a thing about. Charlie Babbit is Raymond’s brother, who does not know Ray exists, until he discovers somebody else has inherited all his fathers money, which he believes to be his. Charlie goes looking for Raymond, and then takes him away on a trip where he tries to trick his brother out of the money Ray has inherited. Raymond Babbit has a condition called autism, which gives him many disabilities. He does not listen to what people say to him, and his voice is always monotone. He has high order thinking skills and is now fixed in to routines of certain bedtimes, for example, “lights out” is eleven PM. Also what Raymond eats for his breakfast, lunch and dinner has to be the same everyday. These points frustrate Charlie whilst on the trip, but Ray living in an institution all his life is to blame for these habits. Charlie finds it hard to communicate and compromise with Ray, as he is in a world of his own, and it disturbs him when he deviates from his usual routines. Although Raymond has these matters, he also has high order thinking skills, and has a lot of memory of his past. Even though Wallbrook would be a good place for him to live, as he has lived there all his life and they have excellent doctors there, he likes Charlie, and makes a “connection” with him when he laughs at one of his jokes. This is unusual because autistic savant’s brains don’t usually work that way, and they can’t normally understand issues such as that. Charlie Babbit is Raymond’s brother, who has not known of Ray’s existence until now. He really wants the money Ray has inherited, but whilst trying to con Ray, he also gets to know him and to love him. Charlie shows Ray the world outside Wallbrook, and helps him to do things he has never done before. When Charlie first met Ray, he shouted at him a lot. This scared Ray, and Charlie didn’t realise it because he could not keep patient with him. It would be really good for Ray... This is ONLY a preview of the article.
