letters to the editor examples


part1:
          Re “Time to Break the Silence on Palestine   
          (Letters to the editor)opinions of “Martin Luther King and Today’s Israeli-Palestinian Conflict”
part2:
         


genres of letters to the editor  are polite attitude, opinion ,  and details to support, personal information.

i think the most improtant genre is opinions:
"Michelle Alexander deduces that Martin Luther King Jr. would condemn Israel if he were alive today. I disagree."(from first letter)
"I speak as an American Jew in saying that supporting the Palestinian struggle for rights is about the most “Jewish” thing I can do"(from second letter) 
"I agree with Ms. Alexander that some of the current Israeli government’s policies toward its Arab population deserve sharp criticism."(from third letter)


To show the clearly opinion to the whole topic, is really necessary to letter to the editor, usually shows up at the beginning.


part 3:
L1
writer:Richard Schlussel
goal/purpose: disagree
reader/audience: editor
context:Israel-Palestine today. 

L2
writer:Maxine Fookson
goal/purpose: support
reader/audience: editor
context:Israel-Palestine today. 

L3

part4:
They have tow disagree and one agree with Michelle. They are writing about if  Martin Luther King Jr. would condemn Israel if he were alive today. They are trying to lay out the history to prove their opinion.

First post!

Hi everyone,I am Tianru Peng and this is my first post on this blog! I am so excited to share my life and feelings in here. First I would like to do a little intro. You can probably see by my name, I am Chinese and come here since I was 14 years old. My high school is In New York State which is 3 hours drive from here, it’s pretty far I know . In high school I can go NYC every week, sometimes for shopping and always searching for Asian delicious food!I really enjoyed LOL. Every year I only stay in China for 3 months, while when I come back to here, I always miss the food back home. So I also really enjoyed learning and cooking Chinese food in my apartment. My major is business management. I also very like English, while sometimes I can’t really keep reading, I just can’t focus on that. So I use a another way to learn— watching tv shows! Black mirror and west world are my favorite!I also have a cat which is 1 years old. I posted a photo of him below, is him cute huh?
