'The Outsider' Anticipation Guide

-You can tell a lot about a person by the physical appearance-
Disagree. By my opinion, you can't tell how a person is, and how his personality is by just looking at him.
A person that you might think that you won't like, can maybe be a very nice person in real life, but if you won't really get to know him, you can’t know. Looking at a person and judging him, can maybe give us a clue how that person acts, but it can not tell us how is personality is, if he is funny or sad etc.
A person can not dress with the new fashion clothes, and then you will think that he is something that he is not, but when you will get to know him, you will maybe discover that he is the same as you.
I think people shouldn’t judge others only by there look, also they should try to talk with them, and maybe try to know them, and then decide whether you would like to stay friends with them or not.

-The loss of a family member or close friend can have positive effects-
Agree and disagree. I disagree because when you lose somebody who was close to you in a certain way, you feel very bad and sad, and usually you want to be alone, and to not talk with anyone. Though, it is always hard to deal with a loss, from the other side, sometimes there can be positive affects like it can make you and your family closer, and sometime you can discover who your real friends are, and even sometimes maybe you will find that people you didn’t even think that will be with you in your hard times, will be there for you.

"Tell-tale Heart" Edgar Allan Poe

"Tell-tale Heart" Edgar Allan Poe

I was asked in class to choose the clip that I prefer the most. I picked the third version of the 'Tell tale heart' by Edgar Allan Poe.

I picked that version because it helped me the most to understand the story. It was not long at all, and was told by a puppet. Of course it was with a sense of humor, another reason why I liked that clip the most. The puppet did talk very fast but it didn’t matter because I still understood the story, and not like the other clips, this one was very short and effective.

Though I think the readers can understand the story from all the clips, I think they will understand the story the best from the first clip.

Because even though the quality of the video isn’t very good, this clip tells the entire story, detail by detail, and the reader can understand the story perfectly.
