The death of the moth

In the death of the moth, Woolf effectively uses Narration in her essay. She uses first person throughout the story. Woolf also includes a conflict at the end of the story. In the beginning she describes what moths are, but after when she is done describing the moths, she began to narrate her story until the end. When Woolf narrate, the reader can picture what she is feeling and have a better idea of her view of moths.

Weekly Reflection 2

I learned that the media can cause society to behave a certain way. The media can make an impact which can affect someone who is watching. For example, reality TV can cause someone to behave a certain way that is similar to what is on the show. Reality TV is not real, but as someone who is watching the show, they are given a false reality and make them think that it is real. A person may watch the show and assume that since it is reality TV than that must be real. Reality TV is not real but they want the mass to think that it is real.

Harjo

Suzan Harjo believes that the remains of american indian bodies should not be treated like it is an artifact. American indian bodies are sold as collector's item which Harjo do not think is the right thing to do. Harjo believes that the government is wrong for keeping human remains as collector's item. Keeping the remains of American Indian bodies is the cause. The effect would be the government decision on what to do with the American Indian remains. They either can keep the remains or rebury the remains which Harjo consider to be the best thing to do.

Reading Journal Didion

Didion

The essay makes me feel different because I never wrote a diary before. Didion describes a setting that had some meaning to her. She has a so call notebook tablet that she puts her life in. The part when she had a flashback about a moment in her life. It is the feeling of nostalgia. The question helps strengthen her work because the question being asked is used to make a point.

I learned that free writing can benefit the writer a lot. By free writing you can be creative and not worry about grammar or a sentence being wrong. It can really help you create ideas so and pick out what you think is best overall. It is basically your thoughts on paper.

Baker

Baker is talking to kids that are in school. More Specifically to kids that are unsure about what to do, but in general to kids that are students going to school. It reveals that Baker wants to inspire kids unlike how Mr. Feagle. He targets kids that are afraid to do what they are good at.
In the reading Baker states "Mr. Feagle was notorious among city students for dullness and inability to inspire. Despite being dull, Mr. Feagle inspired Baker."Mr. Feagle had opened a door for me. Although Baker felt that he had a chance of being a good writer. The purpose of this essay was to express yourself an be able to do what you feel is right. The tone of this essay would be informal.

Liu uses description to describe his story about a china town visit. He describe in detail what he sees, hear, and how he felt. Liu narrates his story in an formal tone. It can give us a picture of the things that he "sense" by being specifically formal. Liu create a negative mood. It show how he felt visiting chinatown.
