  2. PRESENTATION 1 • ANALYZATION OF SHORT STORIES: • - Shopaholic by My Chronos • Incredibly Touching • Hobnail by Crystal Arbogast • The Story of an Hour by Kate Chopin • Shopping by Jennifer Rose Lane

  3. GRAMMAR Coordination • To coordinate two or more words, phrases, or clauses is to place them in a construction that lends equal weight to each of the element. • Can be joined by coordinating conjunctions like and, but, or, nor, for, so, yet. e.g: On that very day, she quit teaching reading, and writing, and arithmetic. [Excessive coordination] • the author uses few numbers of ‘and’ to indicate the coordination of the sentence and his idea.

  4. Tenses • to tell the time whether something happens now, in the present, or in the past. - e.g: ‘Her name was Mrs. Thompson. As she stoodin front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school, she toldthe children a lie. • The author starts of the story with a past tense of the word ‘was’. This is to indicate that his story is for sure a situation that had already happen.

  5. PUNCTUATION • Period/ Full stop (.) • A full stop usually place at the end of the sentence to show that sentence of idea has been finish. • e.g.: Flashy lights adorn in fantastical bloom, exhilaration tweaking my tender urge. (Stanza 1, line 2) Scent of leather mingles with Dior's perfume, cashmere feel, oh what a stimulating surge. • In this poem, the author ends the first idea of the first stanza with a full stop. This is because the author wants to end the first idea and start the second idea.

  6. Comma (,) • Comma is used for the purpose of separating items in a list. Besides that, comma is also used to separate clauses. • E.g. : A cute sparkly top, it looks so heavenly, plus that gold Gucci watch was made just for me.  (Stanza 1, line 7) • The author uses comma after each clause to indicate a slight pause.

  7. Exclamation mark (!) • Exclamation mark is used to show some strong emotion, surprise, anger, or joy. It often marks at the end of a sentence. • E.g. : ooh,  I love that Victoria Secret nighty! (Stanza 3, line 8) • The usage of exclamation mark at the end of this line is to indicate the excitement towards the Victoria Secret nighty.

  8. MECHANICS • Capitals • used in proper names, races, religions, states, cities, and etc. • also used for major words in all titles and emphasis. • e.g.: and perhaps those CHIC black boots on the display. (Stanza 2, line 4) • The author capitalizes the whole word ‘CHIC’ probably because she wants to emphasis on the word itself. • To indicate that the black boots is so beautiful. • Numbers • E.g. : As she stood in front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school, she told the children a lie. (Paragraph 1, line 1) • From the short story, Incredibly Touching, the author uses figure instead of spelling it out.

  9. SPELLING • Compound words • made up of two or more words which serve as a single unit of modifier (written as one word or hyphenated). • e.g: It was Brently Mallard who entered, a little travel-stained, composedly carrying his grip-sackand umbrella. (Paragraph 21, line 1) • Final Silent e • e is usually dropped when an ending beginning with another vowel is added. • -e.g: stood amazed at Josephine’s piercingcry; at Richards’ quick motion to screen him from the view of his wife. (Paragraph 21, line 3)

  10. DICTION a) Word choice • In the short story, the author uses active voice. e.g: ‘Adam could feel the excitement pulsing in his veins.’ Denotation vs. Connotation • The short story contains denotation . It is easy to comprehend, very straight forward and no hidden meaning that acquires deeper understanding. b) Cliches (Triteness) • There are a few clichés found in this short story. e.g: ‘She looked like an angel, so sweet and so real.’ - The sentence ‘like an angel’ has always been used and it seems that it has lost its originality.
