They say/I say Chapter 5 ex. 1
In the first sentence when the author quotes Marxs and Engels which states, "Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other - the bourgeoisie and the proletariat" right after that the author said "If only that were true, things might be more simple." This is an example of the author stating the views of others and then distinguishing her views from that. By stating this the author is disagreeing with the quote by Marxs and Engels and her views is that it isn't that simple to say that society is split into just two groups. The author also goes on to say that there is upper middle class, lower middle class, lower uppers, and upper uppers, which this is also an example of the author inserting her views based off of the views of someone else.
They say/I say Chapter 4 ex. 1
I think she has a combination of agreeing and disagree with those agruments that are summarized. I think this because she states the examples of the different social class backgrounds that are rewarded in the classroom. But she also stated that there has been a little or no attempt to investigate these ideas empirically in elementary or secondary schools or classroom in this country. So there that also leaves doubt in your mind, which leads me to believe that she sees the point the arguments make but also sees then since it hasn't been investigated full that it could be wrong, which is why i say i believe she agrees and disagrees.

7.j
1. The kind of writing this paper resembles is not what you usually see in terms of layout and desgin. There are color images throughout the paper, which draws your attention and all the pictures are placed neatly and there is no edges off the page or anything, which makes the paper look more organized. Whereas if they had the edges of the pictures or something off the page and the picture wasn't placed straight then that would be sending a different message to the reader.
2. The appearence of this paper may influence the way an audience reads it because the pictures draw your attention and may give the reader a preconceived notion since they would most likely look at the pictures before reading. Also the titles may influence the reader because they give the reader an idea about what that section is going to be about before actually reading it.
3. If you changed the paper by removing the images and re-formatted the text to make it look more like a typical college research paper then it would affect the audiences persecption, becsuse I think the images help the paper and keeps the audiences attention. Also I like how the paper was laid out with heading above certain topics, that way you already had an idea of what the paper was going to talk about before just jumping right into reading the whole thing.
