reading 1.1 about an article....

In the second class, MISS SYAZWANI have asked us to read article 1.1 in critical literacy reading book. The title for this article is CONVICTED KILLER BACK AT WORK. It is all about DEBORAH PARRY, 40 years-old who was convicted of murdering her colleague Australian, YVONNE GILFORD in Saudi Arabia. During the discussion session of this article, all of us have to use our critical thinking sense as to achieve the target for this subject. it is hard for us to understand the article because it is very complicated. this article was written by LUCIE MORRIS who was from LONDON. sincerely i feel jealous when all of my classmate have lot of idea regarding this article while i just keep silent. this article is written for people who are not in the medical or legal professions. why? because there is no any scientific term in this article, so all level of readers are suitable to read this article as the words which used is easily understand. rhetorical function? to persuading the readers that DEBORAH PARRY is not guilty at all. besides that, this article is written to warn the readers that DEBORAH PARRY is a convicted killer. on the perspective side, i think that the writer try to condemn DEBORAH PARRY because she used "Convicted Killer" as a word to reinstate DEBORAH PARRY with a criminal record. as for positioning aspect, this article can be said as bias. Finally, the visual literacy is very important as it represent the way how the writer want to give visualization regarding this article.
