Unit 5

In this topic I learn about the intended of writing the text. This means we have to know the reason we write the text. I also learned about the likely impact of the text on the audience. This means that when we write a text and after the audience read the text, what will the reader feels. In the reading it tells about the exposition of the intention of the writer writing the text. It also justify the way of writing by using the metaphor and other types of writing style. It is because the writer wants to persuade the reader or the audience to read and feel the situation in the article. In the reading ‘Out of Puff’ it shows about the effect of smoking. In this reading it shows the impact of the text to the reader. Probably the reader will influences by the writing and those who smoking might stop smoking. The interesting part in the unit is when in class we trying to predict the real intention of the writer writing the text. Sometimes we argue in the class but in the end we conclude the answer together. The difficult part in the unit is to differentiate the persuading that and persuading to. Both of them were alike and a bit confusing me. However this unit talks about the impact of the writing towards the reader. It is not easy to make the reader get the same idea as the writer. Reflection to the presentation is very good. The presenters for this chapter are Sue, Farah and Nadia. Three of them manage to deliver the message very well. They manage to conduct the presentation effectively. The audiences understand with their explanation. The presentation also goes smoothly and they manage to get praised by the lecturer in class.
