Assalamualaikum.

Today's class Miss Zur gives back our midsem paper and listening test paper. Gratefully that my marks is not that bad like previous sem. hee :D She also taught us about author's purpose and tone. There are many purposes for an author’s writing such as they want to inform, to perform a task, to sell, to inspire, to correct a misunderstanding, to show differing point of view, to review a film and last but not least to review a book. There are important reasons for author’s to write which are to entertain (tells a story that describes something or someone in an interesting way), to instruct (explain or teach something in the story that the reader does not know, the author provide knowledge to the reader), to persuade (tries to change our opinion on a topic by appealing to our emotions) and to describe (to support other purposes in writing. They use it to create a character, set a mood or envision a scene). By knowing the author purpose, you will prepare your mind for the type of information in the reading; make the article easier to summarize and to make it easier for you to discriminate between the article’s main idea and important details. Then, we do some activities.

That's all :3
