Think about the different types of storytelling methods you have learned about in this unit: diary writing, memoir writing, fiction narratives, and nonfiction narratives. Based on your knowledge of these types of writing, which method do you believe leads to the best stories? Once you have chosen a method, explain why you believe this method results in the best stories. Does the point of view in the method help make it more engaging or memorable? Does the structure of the type of writing make a big difference to the storytelling? Think of the specific elements of the type of writing to support your argument.


Can you give me at least 7 sentences?

Answer:

I believe that diary writing is a very impactful way of writing. It lets you get up close and personal with whoever has written the diary, and gives you a first person p.o.v! It's almost like having a personal conversation with whoever wrote it. Because I have a well understanding of how a certain person feels about a certain topic, it does make it memorable. I personally enjoy understanding how a protagonist feels about certain situations. The p.o.v certainly does make it tons more interesting as well. You could either feel like you're listening to the person who wrote, or you ARE the person who wrote.

Explanation:

i don't really know any context, but i hope this helps!

Answer:

I, personally, love non-fiction narratives. This method leads to the best storyteling because it is so creative and can include anything at all. Non-fiction writers are not bound by time, space, or reality in any sense. This methodology results in the best stories because there is so much more freedom and people like to escape reality. The point of view can be in first, second, third person omniscient, or third person limited. Generally, the structure of a non-fiction story can make a big difference in whether or not it is remarkable. For example, if it is longer it will be less interesting.

question 1:
In 1944 Elion joined the Burroughs Wellcome Laboratories (now part of GlaxoSmithKline (a company that makes prescription medicines)). There she was first the assistant and then the colleague of Hitchings, with whom she worked for the next four decades. Elion and Hitchings developed an array (variety) of new drugs that were effective against leukemia, autoimmune disorders, urinary tract infections, gout, malaria, and viral herpes.
1 Elion believed that new drugs could be developed to help people.
2 Elion had to work for Hitchings because she was a woman.
3 Elion worked hard for more than 40 years to earn money for retirement.
4 Elion and her colleagues were responsible for developing important drugs.
question 2:
Read the following paragraph. How does sentence 4 develop the main idea of the paragraph?

Gertrude Belle Elion was born on Jan. 23, 1918, in New York City.
She graduated from Hunter College in New York City with a degree in biochemistry in 1937.
Unable to obtain a graduate research position because she was a woman, she took a series of jobs, including lab assistant, chemistry and physics teacher in New York City high schools, and research chemist.
During this time she also took classes at New York University, where she earned a master's degree in 1941.
Because she could not devote herself to full-time studies, Elion never received a doctorate.

A city slave is almost a freeman, compared with a slave on the plantation. He is much better fed and clothed, and enjoys privileges altogether unknown to the slave on the plantation. There is a vestige of decency, a sense of shame, that does much to curb and check those outbreaks of atrocious cruelty so commonly enacted upon the plantation. He is a desperate slaveholder, who will shock the humanity of his non-slaveholding neighbors with the cries of his lacerated slave.

—Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass,
Frederick Douglass

Which choice best illustrates Frederick Douglass’s viewpoint in the passage?

People enslaved in a city are better educated than those on a plantation.

Complete article from Encyclopedia Britannica

U.S. pharmacologist (one who studies drug interactions) Gertrude B. Elion received the Nobel prize for medicine in 1988 along with George H. Hitchings and Sir James W. Black. The three were awarded the prize for their development of drugs used to treat several major diseases.

Gertrude Belle Elion was born on Jan. 23, 1918, in New York City. She graduated from Hunter College in New York City with a degree in biochemistry in 1937. Unable to obtain a graduate research position because she was a woman, she took a series of jobs, including lab assistant, chemistry and physics teacher in New York City high schools, and research chemist. During this time she also took classes at New York University, where she earned a master's degree in 1941. Because she could not devote herself to full-time studies, Elion never received a doctorate.

In 1944 Elion joined the Burroughs Wellcome Laboratories (now part of GlaxoSmithKline (a company that makes prescription medicines)). There she was first the assistant and then the colleague of Hitchings, with whom she worked for the next four decades. Elion and Hitchings developed an array (variety) of new drugs that were effective against leukemia, autoimmune disorders, urinary-tract infections, gout, malaria, and viral herpes. Their success was due primarily to their innovative (characterized by new or unique) research methods. Rather than using the trial-and-error approach used by previous pharmacologists, Elion and Hitchings examined the difference between the biochemistry of normal human cells and that of cancer cells, bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens (disease-causing agents). They used this information to create drugs that could target a particular pathogen without harming the human host's normal cells. Their methods enabled them to eliminate much of the guesswork and wasted effort typical in previous drug research.

Although Elion officially retired in 1983, she helped oversee the development of azidothymidine (AZT), the first drug used in the treatment of AIDS. In 1991 she was awarded a National Medal of Science and was inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame. She died on Feb. 21, 1999, in Chapel Hill, N.C.



Student J. Doe's Summary

Gertrude Elion was born in 1918 in New York City. She went to school for many years and eventually won the Nobel prize. She was unable to obtain a graduate research position because she was a woman. She took a series of jobs, including lab assistant, chemistry and physics teacher in New York City high schools, and research chemist. She was a scientist who helped discover many important drugs that saved lives. Elion also discovered new ways to test drugs. She died in 1999, 16 years after she retired from Burroughs Wellcome Laboratories.I think she was a terrific scientist.

Read the excerpt from "Object Lesson, Part 1."

"Hardly. They didn't know you were coming." They had betrayed her, the sick shock in her voice said. "Class, this is Ellery Queen. I don't have to tell you who Mr. Queen is, and how honored we are to have him visit us." There was a gasp, a buzz, a spatter of applause, "Mr. Queen was kind enough to come here today to give us a talk on crime. I didn't know he was going to walk in on one."

This information supports the prediction that

Ellery will influence Miss Carpenter's students.
another crime will take place in Miss Carpenter's classroom.
this will be the last time Miss Carpenter asks Ellery for crime-solving help.
Miss Carpenter will be determined to address her students' criminal behavior.

Many climbers take exception to the publicity surrounding Team Jordan. Everest
climber Todd Burleson summed it up by saying, “He’s got his whole life to climb
Everest. Being the youngest boy to climb is a fashionable, celebrity-oriented sort of
thing. But it’s not about the mountains. It’s like trying to get your PhD at ten.” Paul
Romero claims that he is fully aware of the risks. There is a fine line between
encouraging Jordan and pushing him too far, he says. He talked about the point where
Jordan might have “reached his maximum mentally, physically, and where the risk has
become too high.” He said, “Jordan has just not even come close to that point yet.”
And what about Jordan, now that he has accomplished his goal of climbing the
seven summits before his 16th birthday? Unsurprisingly, he has a new mission. He calls
it Find Your Everest. In 2012 Team Jordan set out to encourage young people to be
active and healthy and to pursue their own adventures. In the process, he is inviting
young people to join him in climbing the highest peak in each state. (They range from
Denali or Mount McKinley at 20,320 feet to Florida’s greatest height—345-foot-high
Britton Hill!)
“I feel good about what my parents have taught me about setting goals,” Jordan
says. And now he wants to spread that message to others.

Question:
Is the evidence given by Todd Burleson sufficient to support his opinion that Jordan and his family are just publicity seekers? Explain your answer, being sure to cite evidence, particularly from the section that discusses Burleson (begins "Many climbers...").
