Style worksheet.
YOU MUST ANNOTATE EACH ARTICLE FOR:
1. Sentence structure - are the sentences long or short?
2. Vocabulary - difficult or simple?
3. Formal or informal words - does the author use simple language and possibly slang or not?
4. Descriptive words - is their figurative language (similes or metaphors or hyperboles, etc)
Then answer the questions on the back. For # 3 , be sure that you completely analyze the style you prefer and explain why you prefer it.
On a separate piece of paper:
What is the mood of the first passage (remember mood is based on feelings and senses)? What is its tone (the author's attitude about the subject) ?
What is the mood of the second passage? What is its tone?
