A Hanging
A. I think that Orwell had a message in this story. The message was that he was against capital punishment. He uses his descriptive details to show that he is against capital punishment.
D. Orwell lists great detail about the hanging. He told us that the prisoner was crying. He was crying so loud even when a cloth bag was put over him it was still a persistent cry. The crying went on and on.The hangman seemed to be counting the cries giving him a certain amount. He also said everyone watching this horrible hanging had changed color. The Indians turned grey like a bad cup of coffee. I think he wrote these details to show how horrible capital punishment really is. He gave as much detail to show that this is unnecessary. I feel the same way. These details showed me how horrible capital punishment really is. They wait and wait to finally kill the man and it is just horrible
Sustained Writing-
There are many topics that I strongly have an opinion about. The one that I am going to talk about today is being on your cell phone and driving. I can’t stress on how important it is to not drive and text or be on the phone with someone and be driving. First off it’s so frustrating when you’re driving and person in the lane next to you keeps on going over the line and almost bumping into your car. Second off I hate it when the person in front of you is on their phone and is going 20 miles per hour under the speed limit, I know that it’s safer to go slower when your phone but I still hate how slow that they go. A story that I can relate too is one time my friend was driving and she was on her phone, I was also on my phone. We were waiting to leave the school parking lot and since she was on her phone she wasn’t paying attention and she bumped into the car in front of her. She was very lucky that it didn’t do any damage to either one of the cars. On YouTube there is this movie where the person is on their phone and she gets into a huge accident and many people die from it. I know that they exaggerated big time but it scared me enough to not be on my phone when I am driving. I can’t imagine being on my phone and causes and accident and taking away other peoples life because I couldn’t wait 10 minutes or so until I got home. I think that it is very important that if you do need to be on the phone that you pull over on the side of the road, it can prevent many accidents. I also think that it is a good idea that if cops see you on your phone that they give you a ticket. Personally for me I wouldn’t want to live day to day knowing that I killed someone from being on my phone while driving.
