The first example is vague, but important. The two books, Boxers and the other, Saints are written with different perspective. Boxers is written from the view point of the Chinese and Saints is from the view point of the Western missionaries…

Similarly to the first text the second text is published by The Guardian and has the same layout, with a bold title at the top of the page, which again immediately gains your attention, with the same image used, normal plain font which gives the text again, a very formal quality. Nevertheless the way in which the text is portrayed could not be more different.…
The book I read is Among the hidden wich is wrote by Margaret Peterson Haddix. This book was published by Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing in 1998. It is a science-fiction book wich has about 150 pages. My first impression of this book is that it is a sad story because the cover page is made up by cool tone.…
The problem begins with public perception. Buresh & Gordon point out a fundamental disconnect. The public trusts and respects nurses as caregivers but does not understand the professional standard or practice of nursing (Buresh & Gordon, 2006). Buresh & Gordon movingly quote Joan Lynaugh, nurse historian, “Most people know they can’t get into a hospital without a doctor. What they don’t know is…
Society has a powerful influence over individuals’ actions, but that power and influence is not carried over to an individuals’ mindset. In the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, the two characters Faber and Beatty have very similar personalities. Though the way of society has drastically influenced how each responds accordingly to social standards. Faber has followed the path that society has paved for him, but he wants to be the man that can help change society’s view of books. Beatty is fulfilling his duties as fire chief, and is seen as a power head, though he may not be as happy as society depicts him to be. Both characters are well read, have different perspectives of society, and have contrasting ways of teaching Montag. Firstly, Faber is very well read because he is a retired English Professor. His knowledge of books goes deeper than just words on paper; “It’s not books you need, its some of the things that once were in books […] look for it in nature and in yourself.” (Bradbury, 74). Faber is able to understand the power, integrity and meaning behind the words, and is able to realize that without experiencing life you can never understand the “life” that books depict. Secondly, Faber’s perspective of society is that people no longer know what it means to live. They find superficial happiness in mindless entertainment “We are living in a time when flowers are trying to live on flowers instead of growing on good rain and black loan” (74). Faber’s use of figurative language has depicted society as very materialistic. He has begun to see individuals of society as emotionless and self absorbed; which has resulted in a society that does not think for themselves because they have always been told what to do, influencing the actions they make not conscious decisions. Thirdly, the teaching style that Faber has with Montag is very effective because he is encouraging Montag…
In regards to their similarities, both texts share a main protagonist who is brought into a world of conformity, both of these protagonists experience a world of perfection and stereotypes, where individuality is heavily scarce. Perfection can be seen throughout both texts such as the houses in the town which are perfectly coloured and identical, as well as the cars which drive in unison. Perfection is also seen in the poem through the school which have gray and stiff rooms which are just like each other. This is also seen through the teacher who commented on him for not wearing a tie just as the other boys do. In regards to difference, although both protagonists were brought into a life of conformity, Edward was willingly brought into the town, whereas the boy was brought against his will and repeatedly voiced his anger as a result. Unlike Edward, who managed to break out of his conformist lifestyle and reverted back to his old ways, the boy ended up changing his ways and eventually conformed to his new life in conformity. Both texts, through differences and similarities, managed to successfully emphasize and highlight the idea of conformism as an inherent aspect of our society using their respective…
All the articles look the same in the beginning, but when we started to read the article, the text become different to us. Each author used their own style when they write their own texts. So, the text is different, but every author Used Ethos, Logos, Pathos in their texts. In (“Mother Tongue” and “Intercultural Communication Stumbling Blocks”) and in my visual. Each of us describe the analysis in own ways.…
The author of The Perils of Social Reading, Neil Richards, writes about the issues of updating an old privacy act that could interfere with the way we view the world through our reading and watching movies. The VPPA or Video Privacy Protection Act is an old act from 1988 that the House of Representatives wants to update to make it so when a Facebook or Netflix user watches or reads something on the internet, it is automatically posted to your Facebook feed. Richards brings to the attention of the reader the issues with this because many people are self-conscious about what they read and would rather not have people know. The article…
The two sources that I am going to compare are Source 3 and Source 2. Source 2 is an article aimed for anyone who is interested in swimming or even people who like to read about incredible accomplishments made by other people. The text is formal and is about Philippe Croizon who in 2 years learnt to swim without his limbs. He lost of all of his limbs in 1994 while he was removing a television aerial from a roof and it hit a power line. However source 3 is a book extract aimed at adults who like reading about geography in general. The text is formal and is about Christopher Ondaatje who crosses part of Lake Victoria. On his journey there he talks about the spectacular sunrise he sees behind Mwanza. He also talks about the experience with ferry rides and the past experience about one of those ferries going down just outside Mwanza and that people were killed.…
They use different font, colours and symbols to convey different characters and their perspectives. ‘Voices in the park’ is written for older readers. In this story they have used a formal font and ¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬dull colours for Charles’ mother to show that she is a formal rich woman, but they have used a messy font and ¬¬¬¬¬¬¬bright colours to show that Smudge is a playful, fun girl. In ‘Crusher is Coming’ there are not as many symbols as there are in ‘Voices in the Park’ but there is one symbol that shows what Peter wants to be like. There is ‘Skull and Crossbones’ picture hanging on Peter’s bedroom door. This symbol has always represented danger, death and cruelty. Peter has hung that picture on his door because he wants to show everyone that he’s tough, dangerous and cruel. So in this way, throughout both stories. Symbols, colour and font represent different characters and their…
The short stories It Used to Be Green Once by Patricia Grace and Revenge Gardening by Sue Harper have many differences. The children are all ashamed of their mother because of how she acts and the car she drives in the beginning of the first story while in the beginning of the second the child is very proud of his mother and her garden. How well the children listen to their mothers is very different between the two, because in the first the children always obey the mother even when they don’t want to while in the second the boy disobeys his mother several times. Finally each story has a very different ending, in the first the family wins the lottery and they all live happily ever after and in the second the mother eventually loses the gardening battle to the neighbors. Both stories while they contain similar main characters have many differences. In It Used to Be Green Once the children at the start were very ashamed and embarrassed of their mother. This is shown when they try to keep her from doing the shopping because they don’t want her to be seen in public, and whine about the swimming suits that she makes them wear. Finall…
After I finished reading "Hatchet" I started reading more of Gary Paulson's novels and stories. Every time I finish a book I notice that my vocabulary and grammar skills have become far better than they had been before I began reading. Reading has opened a whole new world for me. I can really understand and picture what the authors are telling me and the meaning of their stories.…
