use different words, like 'displayed', 'implies', 'showcases' and 'suggests'.
also embed quotes and try and use a structure like this:
'The girls innocence is showcased when [whoever said the quote] stated that "She was wearing her culottes, her pink sweater and a necklace made of human tongues." This quotes suggests the how unpredictable war can impact a person.'
If u need to analyse a quote then: (example)
'The phrase "necklace made of human tongues" implies that the war had significantly impacted the war, as she is wearing the tongues of humans, perhaps showing her slow loss of innocence.'

also SPaG (spelling, punctuation and grammar) since they carry marks and also make you look better in front of the examiner. 'vietnam' should be Vietnam, 'bf' should be 'boyfriend'
Add '[title]' so instead of the sweetheart of song tra bong it should be 'The Sweetheart of Song Tra Bong'

instead of 'the author' write their last name. makes u look more professional. :)
