WE EAT SOCIAL MEDIA FOR BREAKFAST

I thought that the use of diction, syntax, and tone really helped on making the point that we use technology as a way to come out of reality. In the writing, the tone was grim to make sure we get the point that we shouldn't be using the internet as a better version of the real world. The syntax and diction were well formed to get the point across and the author did not try to make complicated sentences so that way the reader can know exactly what point the author was making. I really liked the writing even though I really don't agree with it. I use technology a lot and I also don't like when they send pictures of their breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I think it's really stupid. I also know that people use technology a lot to the point where they like it better than interacting in real life. However, I believe that some people create a community online, a community that might not be able to be created in one on one conversations. I like the internet because we can meet peop...

Essay (Fahrenheit 451)

For my essay, I chose to do Option #2 Bradbury's language and syntax are used to convey how Montag's inner world differed from the world around him. The way Bradbury arranges his words and the tone really makes a difference in the way of making images in our mind to understand the story better. When Montag sees Mildred committing suicide Bradbury puts a mental image in our mind so we can understand what Montag is feeling and, how shocked he also is when the airplanes are going by. When Bradbury wants us to get a certain feeling or idea without us having to use much thought he shortens and makes easier to read were even a third grader can understand.  I'm going to be completely honest most of what Bradbury says and what we're supposed to understand I don't fully get it.
