Exercise 5

1.    No , the passage doesn’t give me any information about Eleanor Roosevelt’s childhood.
2.    The passage is mostly about the biography of Eleanor Roosevelt , about what she did and her success
       in doing that.
3.    The passage gives a positive impression of  Mrs. Roosevelt , it is shown from the sentences written
       which talks about her modesty ,  her enthusiasm in human right , her optimism , her success in politics,        and also the achievements she got.
4.    What Mrs. Roosevelt felt about her greatest achievement was optimism and a determination.
5.    As a person , I can say that Mrs. Roosevelt was a great , smart , and modest woman who had huge
       contribution s in struggling for human dignity and worth. She’s a couragious person who was dare to
       struggle for what she believed was right.

Exercise 6

1)    The encyclopedia entry adds some informations about Eleanor Roosevelt’s childhood and her family.
2)    The two passages are similar for both are talking about  the biography of an inspiring figure Eleanor
       Roosevelt. But they are different for its  contents. The first text didn’t tell us about the childhood life of
       Eleanor . But the second text did.
3)    If  I were writing a report on Mrs. Roosevelt’s life , the encyclopedia entry would be a more useful
       source  for me , because usually the quality of the information  in the internet is below what we found in
       print.
4)    If  I were writing a report about US , The web page would be better to choose for it’s completed with
       some pictures or maps.
5)    It’s easier to skim rather than reading such a thick  encyclopedia  or  looking on a web page , because
       by skimming we don’t have to read all the words written that might  probably get us confused. We just
       need to find out the key words that answers the questions in our mind.
