Daily Journal 2 8 January 2013 • Is Privacy an illusion? Do you think that your privacy is at risk in today’s society? Give at least 2 reasons (Topic Sentence) to support your answer and include an example for each (Concrete Detail) and then explain how your example supports your CD (Commentary). You must pick one side (either you think your privacy IS at risk or IS Not at risk). Example: Yes, I think our privacy is at risk because technology allows people to retrieve your personal information without your knowledge. For example, a company I frequently purchase items from online was recently hacked and a few days later I received a letter from the company and then from my bank explaining that the hackers retrieved customer’s credit card information and that they were giving me a new credit card, number, and account privacy settings. This shows that, due to technology, which we often contribute to making our life easier, actually allowed someone to invade my privacy and attain personal information without my knowledge and, if the company hadn’t realized it so quickly could have ruined my credit and finances- who knows what else they could have done!

Clauses & Phrases Clauses • A clause is a subject and a predicate working together. ExamplesItook the dog to the park.The example has one subject, I, and one predicate, took. Since they are working together to form a comprehensible sentence, this sentence has one clause. Ilove learning, so Ispend a lot of time reading.This example has two predicates: love and spend. Since they are each working together with separate subjects, this sentence has two clauses. Dependent Clauses • A clause that cannot stand on its own (incomplete sentence). • Write an example Independent Clauses • A clause that is a complete sentence.
Phrases • A phrase is a group of words related to the subject, predicate, or object. Phrases do not contain a subject and a predicate, or we would call them clauses. Phrases provide additional information about subjects, predicates, and / or objects, and understanding how they work is helpful to building an analyzing sentences. Examples After working late into the night, Jack fell asleep on his desk.The emboldened portion of the sentence exemplifies the phrase. It provides additional information about our subject, Jack, but the sentence does not require this information to be grammatically complete.
