Assignment Week #2:
- Identify and define the word “butchered”. I looked up for the word butchered and it meant killing (people) or also cutting up an animal for food.
- Important or interesting: “But when I killed my first chicken I was only seventeen and unaccustomed.” I find this sentence interesting because the author is using words that would let the reader know what the passage will be talking or mentioning about. This sentence lets the reader analyze not only was she a 17 year old girl but also an unexperienced chicken animal killer. This shows that the author will provide some sort of new experiences that the 17 year old girl had. Which, new experiences means learning something new. Though, what I would like to know is how was she feeling while she was trying to kill the chicken for her first time and what would she have done different or does she regret doing it?
- Is there any way that you can relate life experiences with the first time killing a chicken? If yes, how or why does it make it relatable?
