I thought that the layout of this article was interesting in comparison to other pieces we've read in class. It seems that she's talking as though third person naritive for you to read as a situational experience. I felt that it was a well done attention getter. She is setting the text up for a reader to experence or have the ability to visualize what the author once experienced in her childhood. It has the ability to express some emotion when she continu...

The author is diligent about the importance of a first draft and how you should know clearly your argument before you start making drafts afterwards because your argument is the direction of your paper. When talking about dialogue I interpreted it as asking yourself questions you feel like a reader would have on your specific topic and cover them throughout your text making sure they are relevant and educational for your reader. Organization is key.

The beginning of this piece provides a bit of instructions as to how to take away the most information from this article: noting the importance when we read about reader responsibility, writer responsibility, intercultural pragmatics; inductive writing, deductive writing. The beginning of the article almost touches on the norm concept a basic understanding based around a specific society. An unspoken rule understood around the community. I appreciate the ...

Although this passage s brief I found it very interesting to read because it places extreme care in recognizing the importance of the reader. That although the author is in control of the true outcome of the text the interpretation is accountable for each individual reader. It is up to the reader to determine what to accept what to believe to feel while reading, which places more pressure on an author to pose enough of a disclosed reason as to why the rea...

Personally I feel that the introduction is dry and certain sentences feel out of place. I understand where she was trying to go with the layout of the initial paragraph but I feel like it could flow better with further revisions. I was taught throughout high school to the infamous “show not tell” so to read a blatant statement appears uncreative and not thoughtful. There are grammatical errors in word placement within several sentences. The hi...

I initially noticed the structure of this paper. Every point was clear and concise and the introduction in my perspective was not necessarily engaging but logical and flowed well with organized transitions. Having the first body paragraph as a brief history of food was well done making the second body, American food today, easy to compare and contrast without having to review the text several times. I appreciate the points given in this paper because each...

Cogito ergo sum: I think therefore I am. The declaration of a person’s consciousness, a subject that’s been dwelled upon as early as Homer in ancient Grecian times.

Glimpses in moments, absolute descriptions of scenes, it is only later when depth as an aspect of thinking in ironic terms surfaces through Heraclitus. The lexical means to describe social aspects of human nature. From my perspec...
