First Draft:  Last week, I won two tickets to see the hottest band in the country perform. I will never forget the anticipation I felt waiting to find out if I was the lucky caller. The only problem was that I would have to choose who to go with me: Jackie or Sharon.

Revision: Last week, I won two tickets to see the hottest band in the country perform. I was on pins and needles as I hung on the line, dying to see if I was the lucky caller. The only problem was that I would be forced to make a choice between my two best friends. Should I invite Jackie or Sharon?

As you can see the revision uses hyperboles and figurative language so it makes it harder to make a choice.

In Act II, Scene 2 of The Diary of Anne Frank, Anne prepares for a “date” with Peter. As Margot helps her to get ready, their dialogue reveals evidence that Anne is maturing, as does Anne’s discussion with Peter later in the scene. In your journal, describe how Anne is changing, using specific examples from the text to support your ideas. How would you feel if you were in Anne’s position as a teenager surrounded by adults, trying to navigate the challenges of growing up seemingly all by yourself? Your response should be at least 150 words in length.

Answers

Anne is becoming more mature as she ages, and she looks at the world through a fresh pair of eyes. She now understands part of the burden that her parents hold, and she acts more politely towards the other adults there. Anne, it is very clear that if there is one individual in particular Anne does not like, it is Mrs.Van Daan. As she becomes more mature, she and Mrs.Van Daan become more acquainted and they do not clash as much, Anne becomes more polite. I understand why Anne would be frustrated by her situation. She wants to be treated with respect, but at the same time, she isn't the most mature. So as the war went on, she becomes more understanding of the adults and later on matures. If I were there I don't know how I would be trying to figure out everything on my own. I would more than likely be frustrated trying to figure out my teenage years while everyone is focused on the war.
