Explanation of the vocab. Quiz

On the vocab quiz I could have done way better if I have studied for the actual quiz

Activity 15: Making Predictions and Asking Questions

1. What topics related to the issue of how society values life do you think Ebert might have talked about in his interview?

   The values of life in Eberts interview about how he had to make some difficult decision I his life for instance. Doctors could have gave Eberts a surgery to let him talk again but he made the decision to not talk. The text reminded me of Hamlets to be or not to be text, because he had to make the decision to kill someone to become super wealthy but living with the regret of killing someone or not killing someone that would make his life terrible. 

2. Do you think Elbert's claim about the value of life will agree with hamlet's or not?

   I feel like Elbert's claim would not be as drastic as hamlet's because hamlet had to choose whether he wanted a wealthy life or a poor life, to kill a man or not to kill a man. Where Elbert's was to basically make decisions that would influence his life in many different ways. Like for him to talk again or for him to get surgery to life for one more week. But he wouldn't live with the dread of killing someone to get where he was.  

Activity 14: Surveying the Text

1. What do you know about Roger             Ebert? 

 Roger Ebert is one of the best movie reviewers of his time. He also watch 281 movies in ten months in one of his favorite movie theaters, which was the Lake Street Screening Room. Roger Eberts have lost track of the surgeries he has undergone since the first one, for thyroid cancer, in 2002, followed by the one on his salivary glands in 2003. After that, they disagree about the numbers and dates.cancer, and had his jawbone removed. Chaz Ebert, Roger Ebert's wife kept a journal of all the time that they spent in the hospital. So Roger Ebert had to communicate with his hands by tapping his nails to get peoples attention or by writing letters in his Palms. Roger now uses his thumbs to communicate whether or not he is ok. Two thumbs up means, he is ok and two thumbs down, he needs his full time nurse. Roger wrote hundreds or thousands of reviews. But he wrote his last one on April 6, 2013 on the movie "To The Wonder". He died two days after he released the information on how the cancer has came back to his body. 

2. What kind of writing do you think it is? 

 

This writing to me, was how Roger Ebert battled cancer changed his life In many different ways. One being not being able to talk.

3. Do you notice anything interesting about the way this text looks?

 I noticed in this interview that there wasn't a question and awser format that interviews usually go by.
