Thlog 2

Time goes quickly, two week has gone after the quarter began. In the second week writing 2 class, we also have learned so much.
In the Monday class, the most impressive thing we discussed is the oxford comma. We could find largely difference through reading the sentence with or without comma before “and.” The comma can separate two items and make sentences clearer. It is a common question we would meet when we write essay, thus I think this question is so important that we should focus on. Not only talking about the usage of Oxford comma, we also discuss the usage of the difference of “Hyphens” and “Dashes” in class. Hyphens are always to explain the word or phrase, and make readers understand the article better. Dashes always connect two words together such as “five-year.” Also using hyphens will make sentence that after hyphen be important. The discussion of the comma and hyphens are help me a lot in that I always meet such situation when I write essay.
In addition, we browse three genre generators websites and find the common features of each generator, then we write the PB1B. From these website, I find that each kind of things always has common features and genres whatever is academic essay, comic or meme.
What’s more, after reading “Who cares?” I also learned many skills for writing. The writers should not assume readers will know about some words or phrase they use in the article. Writers should explain each unclear world clearly. Also, writer should tell readers what the topic does matter. “So what” always can attract reader and make the article interesting. These points are so important that I should concern when I write my essays.

After two weeks’ writing class, I feel that it is the one of most interesting and relaxing class I have had. What the most important is that I also can learn so much now thing from class. I am glad to have it.
