Task 4

WRITING PROCESS

Writing process is the process where a writing start with a stages of process like prewriting,drafting,revising,proofreading and publishing.Prewriting is the stage where the first step in writing that you compiling  an information.Drafting is the step where you put the information in you writing.Revising is the step where you must read what you have written to know what it mean and also to rearrange uncorrect or unclear words.Proofreading is the step that to know and sure all sentences are good also spelling,punctuation and capitalization.Publishing is where you are good and done of your writing and start to publish it.






Examples of topic sentence,supporting sentence and concluding sentence.


Topic sentences :

Smoking can cause lung cancer


Supporting sentences :

  • Smoking can cause lung cancer because of the smoke they inhaled through their system and this causes the chemical in the ciggarretes to enter in their lung.
  • Heavy smokers are the one who will get lung cancer because the take cigarretes more than other people.
  • Smoking cigarettes also can cause many problem to other people.Not just only the smoker who can have the disease but also the passive smoker or the non-smoker people.

Conluding sentences : 

smoking can cause loss of memory because the smoke from cigarettes prevents oxygen from going to the brain. As a result, a person could fail at any task in life.

Stages Of writing Process ( TASK 3 )

WRITING PROCESS

The writing process stage is the most important part before making a writing and the first that we can give idea and information.The writing process stage have five part like prewriting,drafting,revising,proofreading and publishing.

Prewriting is the part where we have to think to decide a topic to write and also to consider who will read or listen to the work.brainstorming also include before starting to write and also list places where you can research information.

Drafting is the part wher you put the information you have researched into you own words.Write sentences and paragraph even if they are not perfect and then read what you have written and judge if it says what you mean and show it to other and ask for suggestion.

Revising is the stage where read again what you have written and think about what other said about you work.Rearrange the word and sentence and take out or add parts and the replace overused and unclear words.Lastly,read your writing to be sure it go smoothly.

Proofreading is the part where you must check all sentence are complete,correct spelling,capitalization and punctuation.Change the words that are not used correctly.

publishing is the stage where you can put your writing on display and have other to read your book and sharing it.

Types of sentence structure ( TASK 2 )

Simple sentence :

         Some students prefer to learn in the morning
         Juan and Arturo play footballevery pm


Compound sentence :

     I try to speak Spanish, my friend tried to speak English.
     Alejandro played football, so Maria went shopping.




Complex sentence :

     When we hand over his homework, he forgot to give the teacher the last page
     Teachers work back at home after he realized the error.


 

Compound -Complex sentence :

     Women whose mothers I talk to sell cosmetics.
     Jonathan read the book is on the shelf.

Sentence Sructure (TASK 2)

 SIMPLE SENTENCE
A simple sentence, also called an independent clause, contains a subject and a verb, and it expresses a complete thought. In the following simple sentences, subjects are in yellow, and verbs are in green.  




A. Some students like to study in the mornings.
B. Juan and Arturo play football every afternoon.
C. Alicia goes to the library and studies every day.
The three examples above are all simple sentences.  Note that sentence B contains a compound subject, and sentence C contains a compound verb.  Simple sentences, therefore, contain a subject and verb and express a complete thought, but they can also contain a compound subjects or verbs. 


COMPOUND SENTENCE
A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a coordinator. The coordinators are as follows: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. (Helpful hint: The first letter of each of the coordinators spells FANBOYS.) Except for very short sentences, coordinators are always preceded by a comma. In the following compound sentences, subjects are in yellow, verbs are in green, and the coordinators and the commas that precede them are in red. 





A.  I tried to speak Spanish, and my friend tried to speak English. 
B.  Alejandro played football, so Maria went shopping. 
C.  Alejandro played football, for Maria went shopping.
The above three sentences are compound sentences.  Each sentence contains two independent clauses, and they are joined by a coordinator with a comma preceding it.  Note how the conscious use of coordinators can change the relationship between the clauses.  Sentences B and C, for example, are identical except for the coordinators.  In sentence B, which action occurred first?  Obviously, "Alejandro played football" first, and as a consequence, "Maria went shopping.  In sentence C, "Maria went shopping" first.  In sentence C, "Alejandro played football" because, possibly, he didn't have anything else to do, for or because "Maria went shopping."  How can the use of other coordinators change the relationship between the two clauses?  What implications would the use of "yet" or "but" have on the meaning of the sentence?


COMPLEX SENTENCE
A complex sentence has an independent clause joined by one or more dependent clauses. A complex sentence always has a subordinator such as because, since, after, although,or when or a relative pronoun such as that, who, or which. In the following complex sentences, subjects are in yellow, verbs are in green, and the subordinators and their commas (when required) are in red.



A. When he handed in his homework, he forgot to give the teacher the last page. 
B. The teacher returned the homework after she noticed the error.
C. The students are studying because they have a test tomorrow.
D. After they finished studying, Juan and Maria went to the movies.
E. Juan and Maria went to the movies after they finished studying.
When a complex sentence begins with a subordinator such as sentences A and D, a comma is required at the end of the dependent clause. When the independent clause begins the sentence with subordinators in the middle as in sentences B, C, and E, no comma is required. If a comma is placed before the subordinators in sentences B, C, and E, it is wrong.
Note that sentences D and E are the same except sentence D begins with the dependent clause which is followed by a comma, and sentence E begins with the independent clause which contains no comma.  The comma after the dependent clause in sentence D is required, and experienced listeners of English will often hear a slight pause there.  In sentence E, however, there will be no pause when the independent clause begins the sentence. 




Compound-complex sentence
Finally, sentences containing adjective clauses (or dependent clauses) are also complex because they contain an independent clause and a dependent clause.  The subjects, verbs, and subordinators are marked the same as in the previous sentences, and in these sentences, the independent clauses are also underlined.

A. The woman who(m) my mom talked to sells cosmetics.
B. The book that Jonathan read is on the shelf.
C. The house which AbrahAM  Lincoln was born in is still standing.
D. The town where I grew up is in the United States.
Adjective Clauses are studied in this site separately, but for now it is important to know that sentences containing adjective clauses are complex.

SAMPLES AND NOTE OF BRAINSTORMING,LISTING AND BUBBLING (TASK 1)

Brainstorming
Brainstorming is a lot like freewriting, except it does not use complete sentences and is often written as a list.



  • Obesity in kids
  • See it everywhere
  • Pretty big percentage of kids are obese
  • Cause: lack of exercise (no recess in Georgia; playing outside has been lost to video games)
  • Cause: poor diet (fast food, Super Size)
  • Health risk: diabetes
  • Health risk: heart conditions
  • How do we fix this?
  • Educate kids and parents
  • Make school cafeterias food healthier
  • Encourage grocers in all areas to carry healthier and fresher produce and meats



Bubbling
Bubbling, like freewriting above, is a great technique when you have not yet developed a clear idea of where you are going with your topic. This is also a great technique for people who are visual learners.






Now think about some things relating to this.





Continue by adding on to these new circles :




They are also helpful for organizing your ideas later on, because things that should be linked together in the paper will be linked on the bubble map.



Listing

As you can see from our bubbling and clustering examples, we’re starting to generate some organization while we prewrite. Listing is another great way to organize as you prewrite.

Audiences Why do they watch? Favourites Dislikes
Male
(what percentage of total audience?)
To be scared Creepy creatures,aliens Texas chainsaw
Female To relax and escape stress Classics,Dracula,
wolfman
Candyman


To compare written horror books / movie adaptations Psycho antagonist,silence of the lamb,halloween Blade


To see how special effectslook Supernatural,nightmare on elm street,The ring
