My Reaction"The Last Meow" Part 1 by Hex and Gabe
My reaction to part one was very emotional. The pathos in the first paragraph struck me like a lightning bolt on a stormy day. It reminded me of my past years with my cat Winston before my mother took him away. I loved that cat so much even though we had our bad times. These memories relate to the first paragraph of the article "The Last Meow" because of the pathos it contains. Even though in that paragraph it describes how bad that cat is, the pathos in that paragraph shows that that cat is dying, reminding me of my cat, Winston.

Today in class we learned that about Description paragraph and Contrast paragraph. Description is when you describe something or someone. A contrast paragraph is when two paragraph are compared to each other. I also learned that when you have a list in a sentence you have to use a semi-colon. This describes you listing a list instead of you telling what's in your list. The first paragraph is full of pathos, it contains a lot of feeling. For example the sentence, ''Her sleek ermine coat was matted and worn, her long neck that it drooped to her chest," it gives out emotion because it describes how weak the cat is; its just sad.
