...Topic: How to make a paper heart Specific Purpose: To teach the audience the history and how to make paper hearts Thesis Statement: The audience will learn how to make a paper heart in less than 10 mins Introduction Attention Getter: So this might take you back to the good times and maybe show my age Transition: As a kid in middle school my friends and I would write notes back and forth to each other. And there came a point in time where either we got to sloppy with it or the teachers got really smart because they started seeing us and taking the notes and reading them to the whole class, and at this time most of our letters were who liked who . So of course nobody wanted that information to get out. So we came up with making paper hearts, and we would put them in the front of our folder so it looked like art and if the teachers seen us passing it around they would think we were just giving it to our friends to put inside their folder. Credibility: When I first started middle school I didn’t know that writing notes in class was such a big thing. I thought texting each other was a lot better but I see I was wrong not many phone companies had the unlimited plan till after 7pm. So unless you wanted to get in trouble by your parents later you were writing notes to each other in class. Thesis Statement: I’m going to tell you some of the history and then show you how to make a paper heart Preview: Tonight I will tell you what paper hearts can be used for and how...

...Part1: Reading Comprehension and Translation History of Halloween Halloween falls on October 31st each year in North America and other parts of the world. What do you know about Halloween? Do you celebrate it in your country? Here is a little history about it …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Like many other holidays, Halloween has evolved and changed throughout history. Over 2,000 years ago people called the Celts lived in what is now Ireland, the UK, and parts of Northern France. November 1 was their New Year's Day. They believed that the night before the New Year (October 31) was a time when the living and the dead came together. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Like the Celts, the Europeans of that time also believed that the spirits of the dead would visit the earth on Halloween. They worried that evil spirits would cause problems or hurt them. So on that night people wore costumes that looked like ghosts or other evil creatures. They thought if they dressed like that, the spirits would think they were also dead and not harm them. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… The tradition of Halloween was carried to America by the immigrating Europeans.

...compare style by means of language and tone. And finally, I am going to argue my own view of the situation of African Americans today in text 2. Text 1 “Black is being seen in a whole new light” is a commentary by Yolanda Young from US Today 2009. Young is herself “a woman the color of black coffee” (Page 2 line 6-7) and she finds the struggle of being black not so tough anymore because Michelle Obama a black women who looks just like Young is living in the White House and is married to the most powerful man in the world Barack Obama. Psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark provided an experiment in 1954 where they conducted in which black children were presented with a black doll and a white one. The children were then asked which they thought was better. In the start the children chose the white doll but short after the Obamas moved to the White House the children were again asked to choose a doll. Nearly half the black kids chose the black doll now. She uses this experiment and her own situation to show after the Obamas moved into the White House then she found it acceptable to be black. She also makes use of ethos, logos, pathos and personal deixis which gives us a special relation to her. In text 2 “Black History Month” Eric Holder, an expert at the U.S. Justice Department, says in a speech from 2009: “we should use Black History month as a means to deal with this continuing problem.” (Page 4 line 7).

...the dawn of man, punishment has been an active part of society’s cultural structure designed to teach society members about morally acceptable behavior and attempts to promote progress and harmony among its citizens. Punishment can be categorized into four forms: retribution, deterrence, incapacitation and rehabilitation. Retribution argues that perpetrators of crimes should be punished by imposing a level of pain or punishment equal to or greater than the pain suffered by the victim. Deterrence can be further classified into two forms: general and specific. General deterrence seeks to influence individuals prior to the commission of a crime through fear of the known penalty. Specific deterrence focuses on seeking to impose punishment on the individual for lesser crimes in attempts to deter repeating or escalating criminal behavior. Incapacitation serves to remove individuals from society to ensure the safety of its members [3]. Capital punishment, commonly referred to as the death penalty, is the most extreme form of punishment imposed on an individual. It is currently defined as “the execution of a convicted criminal as punishment for the most serious of crimes [2]. Despite its current definition, its use throughout history has not always been so clearly defined and limiting. This paper will serve to discuss capital punishment and its application across time and the world. Application and Evolution Even before recorded history, early man formed tribal societies. These tribes...
