Chapter Two Assignment

Chapter Two Assignment
Chapter Two Writing Activities
1. Reread one of your recent essays. How does the writing show that you thoroughly understood your subject, met the needs of your audience, and achieved your writing purpose?

My latest essay is entitled “If Eyes Could Talk”. Being aware that my readers consist of various people from many different cultures, I presented 1992 historical data so my text would be easily understood. The writing provoked thought amongst the readers. It brings awareness to events that occur within the borders of our own country that is of major concern versus our active involvement in global matters. My writing purpose was to bring consciousness to important events and show how they affect everyday people. As one visualize the eyes of the man in the picture, the reader empathizes and questions the true meaning of what America stands for, freedom and justice for all.
