1. Open and read the “How to write a critique” document in the resources menu.

Describe what is a critique.

2. Outline the FOUR stages in a critique.

3. Can a critique be positive? Discuss.

4. Critique the accuracy of the following articles:

2. The four stages in a critique are

·         An introduction which directs the reader’s attention to the publication

·         A summary of the article being discussed

·         Your analysis on the original text

·         Your evaluation

3. A critique can indeed be positive. If there is a 100% correct article that has been portrayed ethically and correctly then there should not be any negativeness.

4. Beijing, Is it a trap?

This story has been held out by an American show called, “In the know”. This issue has been discussed because the upcoming Beijing olympics are a very interesting topic in the news at the moment. However my view on this story is negative.

Clearly these people are dillusional in their stupid opinions of this story. Stating that the clay warriors are going to kill us, that the Chinese are planting hundreds of trees on olympic venues which will attract all the athletes because of air pollution and then once they are there, elite ninjas will kill them all. Do these people know what they are saying or being forced to ready a completely false script. In my opinion, there are no positives in this story except that know we know Americans are complete idiots if we weren’t sure before.

To end, I would even like to see this show put off the air because of how ridiculous it is and downright crazy.

2 year old donkey called up to play pro Donkey basketball league

This issue is talking aobut a 15 month old donkey who plays in the Donkey basketball league. He has been signed for a record 50pounds of food PER DAY to play in the big league.

According to me, this competition could be a case of animal abuse. Not just talking about Scraps the donkey himself, but the whole competition. The fact that there is camera flashes, loud noises, the donkey’s play on a hard surface and the basketball going past donkey’s head in every game, could be a safety problem for the donkey and the people riding them.

At the start of this article I was trying to be positive but thenn as I started to write, I could see no positives in this Donkey basketball league. Therefore my stance on this issue is that the game be scrapped.
