In the third line of the second paragrah in " A Way With Words, of Away With Words: Effect of Texting and Iming on Language" written by Timothy Barranco, the writer says that "On the other hand, some believe that txt is not a language in and of itself but merely a degradation of proper English, more or less an excuse for improper grammar, lack of punctuation, poor vocabulary, and incorrect spelling", which can be regareded as paraphrase. By using paraphrase, the writer clearly shows that someone's opinions about the txt, which forms a contrast with the following sentence that "there is plenty of evidence that supports that we need not worry about txt ruining the minds of teenagers and corrupting our native tongue. This paraphrase also let readers know the issues about the txt language, which is the main ideas of this essay.
In the seventh paragraph, the writer says that "Director of freshman composition at the University of Southern Alabama, Larry Beason, agrreed, saying, 'most students realize that they need to put their adolescent spellings behind them by the time they get to college'(Carey). " This is a example of quotation. This quotation sentence shows that txt usage by young guys are not permanent and will be gave up in the writing as they grow up, which supports the conclusion of this paragraph. This sentence also indicates that the txt language will not bring the bad influence for the youth' writing ability, which is a conclusion of the whole essay.

Blog assignment #5
Just as everyone wants to say the thing which is advantageous to him/her, both the winners and the losers will tell the parts of history which are favorable to them.
At the world second war, China won Japan. In Chinese history book, the writer says that due to the right concept of operations and unit of Chinese , we defeated Japanese' invading. But in Japanese history book, the writer says that Japanese went to China in order to help Chinese with the economics , medical treatments and other useful things. Although there is no doubt that Japanese did a lot of unforgiven crimes for Chinese, Japanese historians don't want their descendants to know that demeaning facts but they want Japanese consider their predecessors were nice and friendly. So everyone wants to set up a brilliant image for others, and the both the losers and winners would like to say the history which is good for them, and concealed the negative things they had made.
I think people should use a dialectic view to see the history. People should listen to the sounds from both losers and winners, and get the relatively facts. Historians and governments should tell the truths to the masses, because history can never be concealed or falsified, and people should undertake the responsiblity for the things they have done, and the masses have the right to know the truthes about the history.
