Answer to the Voice Questions

Question 3

The piece Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson was the piece which I viewed created the most intricate sensory experience. One line which I viewed as an intricate sensory experience from Speak was, "My contact folds in half under my eyelid. Tears well in my right eye." This really gives me something to picture in my head, and there are many other great examples of imagery in Speak. 
 
Question 6
In the first passage there are actually 2 types of tones. One is playfulness as in the beginning all the kids are messing around and having a good time. The second one is shown more towards the end of the piece, and it is harsh. Towards the end of the story the new teacher is very harsh to the students causing all the students to follow exactly what she says.
In the second passage the tone is anxious. Throughout the whole passage the main character is feeling anxious as she has nowhere to go. She is inside the bathroom with a girl who is threatening her and she can't even leave as outside her teacher his monitoring the hallways and she skipped that teacher's class. Due to her having nowhere to go she is stuck and very anxious.

Question7
The voice in my creative non-fiction piece is used to inform the readers on my view of the topic. It also allows the reader something to relate to and some things to laugh at. Some purposeful choices which I have made to my piece include personal experiences. These allow the reader with something to relate though. Another thing is humor, this makes the reader went to read my piece more. Overall I think this is adding strength to my article.
