The text has examples of description, problem/solution, and compare/contrast, but the overall structure is cause/effect. The author shows how humans and animals survive and even achieve great things, even though their bodies are not perfect. Their imperfections cause them to adapt in order to survive.
my grades are on the line :(

Number 3 response:
If you include a conflicting point of view and evidence in an argument it can make it more persuasive because lets say you just heard someone say something like ‘’ I think that we should use solar panels from now on anywhere and always no matter what’’, its not much evidence r much of an opinion even but its still a claim. Imagine right after somebody has an opposite opinion like ‘’yes I believe solar panels are more healthy but they’re expensive and if its night time we cant have electricity and if the sun goes dark somehow we will have no power and no way to have light or entertainment or contact’’ its significantly more persuasive because it provides evidence which makes their argument more causing to believe since it seems they know what they are talking about. The effect that the conflicting sides have evidence and fair reasoning can have on readers for people listening can be the fact that they have more information on the topic, that they can understand where both sides are coming from and for readers their response will be a more understanding and informational one and listeners will have more info on the topic like readers. The examples I will pull from ‘’Genetically modified salmon can feed the world’’. Imagine if Yonathon Zohar (the author of ‘genetically modified salmon can feed the world’) just blatantly said I think genetically modified salmon is good for us, no one, would be persuaded to be towards his belief so he put evidence, proof, and reasoning to his viewpoint for example; ‘’ Fish species that used to be plentiful, such as cod, plaice, haddock and others, are now rare in the wild. The king of the oceans, the giant bluefin tuna, is now near the point of no return, its stocks dropping precipitously in the past decade alone.’’ Stating that we are losing our amount of fish because the massive amount of fish we are fishing for food when we can just genetically modify it.

“Hang on, Dolly!” is a short story written by Sally Lee. The central idea is to never give up and do not let fear stop you from achieving a goal. The information in the text is effective in informing the reader about the central idea because it provides detailed examples of not giving up. For example, Dolly was nervous to fly in a hot air balloon, but she did not look down on herself and succeeded in parachuting! “High-Flying Hero!” is also a short story and the author is Christy Mihaly. The central idea is that we can overcome and push through in tough times. The author effectively informs the reader about the central idea by providing details that explain the concept of pushing through pain. In this story, Chen the pigeon was shot in his chest and fell in the middle of the war, but he was able to work through the pain and fly to the base.
The author’s text structure and explicit details were effective in informing me as the reader about the topic. These stories gave great details and points that were easy to understand and helped me relate to the characters. I relate to Dolly and how she did not give up when I was in a spelling competition. I was nervous to be on stage with the whole school and parents watching me as I spelled out words, but I did not let my nerves stop me. I tried my hardest and I told myself not to be nervous and I placed 5th out of 30 people! I was unable to relate to the character, Chen, however the story has great enough detail that I may be able to use in the future.
The point of view of Sally Lee is more effective than Christy Mihaly’s story because she provides more events, more detail, and more points that lead to the topic and central idea. Christy Mihaly on the other hand has less events yet has enough detail to explain the topic. The part of “High-Flying Hero!” where Chen got shot and plunged out of sight, it does not explain what happened next. The author could have done a better job thoroughly explaining this event. In comparison, in Sally’s story “Hang on, Dolly!” She explained the events in a way for me to understand what was happening in the events. Both stories are effective in informing about the topic, but Sally Lee’s story is more effective than Christy Mihaly’s Story.
DO NOT copy and paste otherwise the teacher will find out. Change a few words/sentences.
Number 1 response:
The steps that experience readers can use to analyze conflicting viewpoints and information on the same topic is trying to understand both viewpoints, do their own research and then look at the conflicting viewpoints on the topic again to see their reasoning and evidence more clearly and so they can understand their opinions. It is very important for readers to recognize and evaluate conflicting information because, the advantage of this is they won’t have much of an opinion when they must write and informative response because they’ve seen both sides and both arguments and evidence included. Some examples of this helping I will pull from ‘’Say no to genetically engineered salmon’’ and ‘’Genetically modified salmon can feed the world’’ (both from CNN I will leave the links in the bibliography). Let’s say for example you only read ‘’Say not to genetically engineered salmon’’ your information will be one sided and you shall have no choice but to write information about one point of view on the topic making you more likely to mistakenly write and opiniated response whilst if you read both ‘’Say no to genetically engineered salmon’’ AND ‘Genetically modified salmon can feed the world’’ you will not only have an easier time to write a non opiniated response but you will have more evidence and research on the topic from two sources on the same topic.
Number 2 response:
It matter when two authors interpret facts differently because its more informational when two people have different information about the same subject and you can get the topics on both sides of the argument therefore not have an opiniated topic on the matter and being able to write an informative response or essay. Yonathan Zohar believes genetically modified salmon can be of good use while one the other hand Rick Moonen believes otherwise. Zohar’s reasoning for his opinion is that since a great amount of people are going to eat fish more often because of the health benefits workers are spending more time and money to catch more fish, causing the factory’s to package them to overfill and causing a handful of fish that used to be extremely common to now barely seen in the wild so in solution he want to genetically modify salmon so more people can be feed and less resources are wasted. Moonen’s reasoning for his opinion is that genetically modified food in general is bad for you and he believes its also a tactic to make already big companies more profit.

Pollution and How It Effects the Ocean
What Plastic Does to the Ocean.
When you think of the ocean what do you think of? Do you think of the cool water, the soft sand or perhaps the warm sun? But did you know that under that beautiful sunset on the water, is all of your trash? Trash is the main cause of extinction to the population of whales and sea turtles, can cause human diseases, and is lessening our amount of clean water.
The ocean has more plastic then marine life. There is an estimate of about 150 million tons. Every year 8 million tons is added annually, rising the amount of plastic each year. This is a problem because plastic cannot disintegrate, but only breaks up into little pieces. That means plastic can be floating around the ocean for hundreds of years before it can break up.
Each year about 100,000 sea animals die as a result of plastic being dumped into the ocean each year. Marine animals often mistake this plastic as food. For example, Sea turtles eat plastic bags because they resemble jellyfish. Plastic can also get stuck in a whale’s throat and they choke to death or the digestive system will get too full of garbage, and the animal dies.
Ocean pollution also has an effect on human life as well. Diseases such as, Kidney Damage and Nerve Damage have been linked to swimming in a beach that is polluted or by drinking polluted water. This is why so many beaches are closed, and why purified water is more expensive. Because of this, people will drink out of polluted waters and get diseases or possibly die.
The oceans are getting more and more polluted with plastics. As a result, it is killing more marine life, causing us diseases, and ultimately starving us. This is why we need to take better care of our oceans by reusing and\or recycling plastics, bags, jars, and bottles so they do not end up in the ocean.
rlly? was i looking at the wrong portfolio...

WHERE IS THE ONE ABOUT THE PERFECTLY IMPERFECT
im really confused cause it doesn't fit in with any text structure i know
PLEASE MINE IS DUE TOMORROW I NEED HELP ON PERFECTLY IMPERFECT PPPPPLLLLEEEAAASSSE!!!!
WRITE ONE ABOUT THE PERFECTLY IMPERFECT
Rip bozo thanks for giving me something I can go off on instead of just flat-out giving up or just copying a whole text
here are some portfolios. i made sure they didn't sound to mature or anything i made them 6th grade maturity level so they dont sound to nerdy, or playful in any way. these should work for you no matter what grade you are in. thank me later :P
(FYI- I WONT USE ANY OF THESE THAT ARE LISTED AND I WILL ONLY BE LISTING 8 PORTFOLIOS AIGHT SO IF YOU ARE USING ONE MAKE SURE YOU REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE AND SAY WHICH PORTFOLIO YOU USED SO PEOPLE CAN KNOW YOU ALREADY USED IT OR ELSE IF THEY USE IT THEY WILL BE AT RISK OF PLAYGARISM OR WHATEVER YOU CALL IT OK BYE SORRY FOR WASTING YOUR TIME LOL OK ACTUALLY)
PORTFOLIO 1:
In the informational text "The Life Cycle of a Butterfly," the author uses a chronological text structure to present the stages of a butterfly's life. I identified this structure by noticing that the author organized the information in a step-by-step manner, starting with the egg stage, followed by the caterpillar, pupa, and finally, the adult butterfly. The author's choice of a chronological structure helped me as a reader because it allowed me to easily follow the progression of the butterfly's life cycle. I could understand the natural sequence of events and how each stage leads to the next. This structure made it easier for me to comprehend and remember the information presented in the text.
PORTFOLIO 2:
In the informational text "The Water Cycle," the author utilizes a cause and effect text structure to explain the process of how water moves through the environment. I identified this structure by recognizing that the author presents the different stages of the water cycle and explains the cause and effect relationships between them. For example, the author explains that when the sun heats up the surface of the ocean, the water evaporates and forms clouds. Then, when the clouds become heavy with moisture, they release precipitation in the form of rain, snow, or hail. This cause and effect structure helped me as a reader because it allowed me to understand the interconnectedness of the different stages in the water cycle. I could see how each step leads to the next and comprehend the reasons behind the changes in water form and movement. This structure made it easier for me to grasp the concept of the water cycle and its significance in our environment.
PORTFOLIO 3:
In the text "The Advantages and Disadvantages of Video Games," the author distinguishes their position from other positions by presenting a balanced perspective and acknowledging both the positive and negative aspects of video games. The author does not take an extreme stance, but instead provides a fair assessment of the benefits and drawbacks. This approach helped me as a reader because it allowed me to see the different viewpoints and make my own informed opinion. From considering the different positions presented in the text, I learned that proponents of video games argue that they can improve problem-solving skills, hand-eye coordination, and even social interaction through multiplayer games. On the other hand, opponents argue that excessive gaming can lead to sedentary behavior, addiction, and a negative impact on academic performance. The author supports their analysis by providing examples such as research studies that show the positive effects of gaming on cognitive abilities and real-life stories of individuals who have experienced negative consequences from excessive gaming. By examining these different positions, I gained a better understanding of the potential benefits and risks associated with video games.
PORTFOLIO 4:
In the text "The Pros and Cons of School Uniforms," the author distinguishes their position from other positions by presenting a balanced view and acknowledging both the advantages and disadvantages of school uniforms. By doing so, the author demonstrates their objectivity and fairness in considering multiple perspectives on the topic. This approach helped me as a reader because it allowed me to see the strengths and weaknesses of both sides of the argument. From thinking about the different positions presented in the text, I learned that proponents of school uniforms argue that they promote a sense of unity, reduce distractions, and minimize bullying based on clothing choices. On the other hand, opponents argue that uniforms limit students' self-expression, can be costly for families, and may not address the underlying issues of behavior and discipline. The author supports their analysis by providing specific examples and evidence for each perspective. For instance, they mention studies that show a decrease in disciplinary issues after implementing uniforms, as well as individual stories from students who feel restricted by uniform policies. By considering these different positions, I gained a deeper understanding of the complexities and nuances surrounding the school uniform debate.
PORTFOLIO 5:
In the informational text "The Importance of Recycling," the author's purpose is to persuade readers to understand the significance of recycling and to encourage them to take action. The author's point of view is that recycling is crucial for preserving the environment and reducing waste. I determined the author's point of view by examining the language and tone used throughout the text. The author consistently presents facts and statistics about the negative impact of waste on the environment, emphasizing the importance of recycling as a solution. The author also uses persuasive language and appeals to readers' sense of responsibility and duty to the planet. Thinking about the author's purpose and point of view helped me understand the topic by providing me with a clear perspective on why recycling is essential. It helped me see the urgency and relevance of the topic, and it motivated me to consider my own recycling habits and make more environmentally conscious choices. Understanding the author's purpose and point of view allowed me to engage with the text on a deeper level and grasp the importance of recycling in protecting our planet.
PORTFOLIO 6:
[TEST QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
ITEM 1: authors purpose
ITEM 2: Description
ITEM 3: Description
ITEM 4: Problem/ Solution
ITEM 5: Authors point of view
ITEM 6: to persuade readers to be less concerned with the flaws they perceive in their own bodies bla bla bla bla bla bla
ITEM 7: whether the author expresses judgment or value.
ITEM 8: Having certain items on hand will make your camping trip a success.
ITEM 9: Hope and improvement
ITEM 10: willing to consider a new idea or custom.
PORTFOLIO 7:
In the text, the author effectively distinguishes their position from others by offering a unique perspective that challenges conventional wisdom. For instance, while the common narrative might emphasize the pursuit of an “ideal body,” the author argues that there’s no such thing and that our flaws and variations have actually aided our survival. This analysis has underscored the importance of open-mindedness and critical thinking. It’s shown me that every perspective, even those that challenge our existing beliefs, can offer valuable insights and broaden our understanding. This experience has been a powerful reminder of the richness that comes from considering diverse viewpoints.
FINAL PORTFOLIO OMG IM TIRED (portfolio 8 lol)
The author’s purpose and point of view can be determined by examining the language, tone, and arguments they use in their writing. The author’s point of view is their personal perspective or opinion on the topic, which can be identified by their expressions of judgment or value. The author’s purpose is their reason for writing, which could be to inform, persuade, entertain, or express personal feelings. Understanding the author’s purpose and point of view helps us to better comprehend the topic, as it allows us to see the topic from a different perspective and understand the author’s intentions. This can lead to a deeper understanding of the topic and help us form our own opinions.
THERE YA HAVE IT SO UHHHH YEAH LOL IF YOU GUYS DONT LIKE THE PORTFOLIO LOLOLLOLOLOL GOODLUCK BYE UwU

Hello! How can I assist you today?
Yes, I'd be happy to provide you with a summary of the first book in the "Wings of Fire" series by Tui T. Sutherland.
Book 1, titled "The Dragonet Prophecy," follows five young dragons who have been hidden away from their warring tribes for all their lives. The dragonets - Clay, Tsunami, Glory, Starflight, and Sunny - have been prophesized to end the long and brutal war between the seven dragon tribes.
The five dragonets are kidnapped from their secret home and taken on an adventure across the continent, where they face many dangers and challenges. Their captor, an ambitious dragon named Morrowseer, tells them that their destiny is to fulfill the prophecy and secure peace between the tribes.
As the dragonets journey towards their goal, they are forced to grapple with friendship, loyalty, and their own individual hopes and fears. Along the way, they encounter other dragons - some friendly, some hostile - who help them or hinder them in their quest.
Ultimately, the dragonets must decide whether they will fulfill their destiny and become heroes, or choose their own paths in a complicated and dangerous world. "The Dragonet Prophecy" is a thrilling introduction to the "Wings of Fire" series that sets the stage for the dragons’ epic and perilous journey.
