Exercise 5 

1.    No, it does not give me information about Eleanor Roosevelt’s childhood.
2.    The most passage is about The Greatest Woman in the world (Eleanor Roosevelt) that the first woman who declares and introduces The Human’s Right to the world.
3.     This passage gives a positive impression of Mrs. Roosevelt. We can see that she was the most influential member of the United Nations Commission on Human Rights. Her enthusiasm for her work at the United Nations was rooted in her humanitarian convictions and her steady faith in human dignity and worth.
4.    Mrs. Roosevelt felt that her greatest accomplishment as the remarkable and greatest accomplishment in her life.
5.    Mrs. Roosevelt was an intelligent person I’ve ever known. She was an enthusiastic person, an astute, accomplished, brilliant woman thoroughly familiar with the word political negotiation. She was not only optimist person, but also she had a big idea for the human life. Despite of that, Adlai Stevenson, once said of Eleanor Roosevelt, “She would rather light a candle than curse he darkness” and I’m on his side.

Exercise 6
 
1.    The encyclopedia gives more information about Mrs. Roosevelt’s childhood (it includes the place, and the time she was born completely). It also gives me the entire of her life until she passed away.
2.    The passage one and the passage two are similar in the explanation about Mrs. Roosevelt as the Greatest Woman through the world and her achievement. The differences are in the first passage described about the accomplishment of Mrs. Roosevelt in the Declaration on Human Rights generally. But in the second passage brought the information of the Mrs. Roosevelt’s life completely.
3.    If I were writing a report on Mrs. Roosevelt‘s life, I prefer using the encyclopedia one, because the encyclopedia supply the details information about Mrs. Roosevelt’s life. Not only in the childhood, but also in the end of her life. 
4.    If I were writing a report about the United Nations, I would rather use the web one than an encyclopedia. A web opens the entire of the source widely.  So that we can absorb the information and sources from it.
5.    In my side, the encyclopedia is easier to skim. With many reasons, I will explain it one by one.
First, reading encyclopedia is the same as we read the text book or a story book.
Second, if we read the encyclopedia, we get the general idea.
Third, Reading a web likes reading only the opinion of the writers in the web, that sometimes the writer gave the wrong information about the information and he/ she doesn’t have the responsibility about that. All of that, reading a web is not the bad one also; it’s just giving another source besides encyclopedia.
