Test prep #2 informational/nonfiction writing

    I have just read the article about how the Ohio State University beat Syrcase University in the NCAA March Madness. the Buckeyes are moving on to the final four to face off against North Carolina or Kansas. The Buckeyes did an outstanding job on posting their defence and not letting syracuse get by them. On the other hand Syracuse did a bad job on their offence. They had no chance on driving in towards the basket and they kept missing jump shots from different angles of the court. the buckeyes won the game with a score of 77-70 now the Bukeyes will be heading to louisville in new orlenes for the final four.
    I believe that what is trying to be said about this article was that the buckeyes did a good job on their defense compared to Syracuse. The Ohio State University kept their defense very tight and Syracuse kept their defense very low and bad which is what caused Ohio's victory and Syracuses tradegy. Lenzelle Smith J.r who scored 18 points and was 3 out of 6 times behind the arc. Ohio also won because they did not give up throughout the entire game and tried to get a leed headstart in the game and to keep that leed throughout the entire game.
    I agree in fact to everything of what has been said in the article because it is if a team works hard for what they want hey will recieve what they want for example. The Buckeyes wanted to win and move on to the final four and the did by playing very tight defense and not giving up. the ohio state then beat syracuse because of this. Syracuse also wanted to win but they did not work hard for it by doing a bad job on offense and on deffense.

Roger and his shooting of the cop (test prep 1 narritive piece of writing)

    I have just started reading the book Dope Sick by Walter Dean Myers in this book the main character Roger Jones who is more known by his street nname Lil J is on the run from the cops so far Lil J is trying to escape from the cops because of the fact that he is being accused of shooting and murdering a cop. Lil J really did not shoot the cop but he hangs out with some drug dealers who shot him.Lil J is only about 16 to 17 years old and he is on the run from the cops. in the story Lil j has ran from the cops and he has snuck into an old and abondoned building. In this building Lil J meets a man known as kelly this man has seen Lil J in the news and is informing him anout that and what he has done. Lil J is also shot while he is running.
    The types of problems that Lil J has so far is that he is on the run from the cops and that he is about to go to jail. some more problems is that he is shot and he is being accused he is also hanging out with the wrong people at the wrong time.Lil J is also in alot of pain and is very tired of running i dont think anyone would want to be in his place at that time that he has to go through all of those types of problems. I do not think that I could relate to the life that Lil J is going through right now in the book because I have never gone through something as serious as that. my responce to this is that if I was Lil J I would not have kept on runing like he is I would probably just find a place to sit and rest.
    This book is very interesting and it would be recomended because Walter Dean Myers uses language and examples in the story so that the reader could see and conect to what Lil J is going through. I dont think I have ever been in as much pain in my life as much as the way Walter Dean Myers describes it for Lil J which is coughing and runing while leaving and driping a trail of blood behind you and trying to sneak in to an abondond house that smells really bad. I dont think I could relate to something this big and serious.

Art works inspirations

   I choose this piece of artwork because I believe that it has a purpose and a meaning just as if any other art work does. I also choose this because If  you look closely towards the picture you can see alot of different types of meanings or descriptions towards the pictures and you could notice alot of types of meanings towards it or alot of different inferences towards the type of picture or artwork. for example if you see this you may think oh its just a robot thats a man but if you look closely you can see that it mayor bloomberg and it is trying to prove something towards this. from my prespective or point of view i can see many different things towards this art work.

  I may infer that the picture is very thought provoking towards the viewer of this piece of art and I can predict or infer that the artist is trying to say that the picture is not just a robot thats a man the picture is trying to say in may point of view that its mayor bloomberg thats created as a robot in order to try to show that he can control the entire new york city and its trying to show that he has control and power over the city. If you look very closely you can see buildings on his arms trying to say that he owns it or the control over it.

   I can connect to this because the artist of this story drew the mayor of the city in which i live in. I can also connect to this because the artist who drew this has drawn this for in which the city I live in and the mayor bloomberg has the bulding from the city I am from. also he is trying to say he has the power as if the president has it.
