Assignment 6

When I read Susan Orlean's article, she is very detailed, she even had a proper introduction that keeps us reading, and helps us understand what we will be reading. She doesn't seem to have any grammar mistakes. She uses the right words to fit into her article about taxidermy, she learns those grammar by the taxidermist that she meets at the convention, the words that we do not often see everyday unless you are around taxidermist all the time, those words that she uses in this article is; fleshing machine, acetone,bondo,noonkester's #NRBERH head sculpted by Bones Johnson, arcane, javelina, Talmudic.. etc, she uses a lots of words that taxidermist use that we don't use everyday. So she did pretty good with describing what they do, she even talked with them to get more information and use their words, and also she hears them. Her arrangement is very good, like I say she had a good introduction, she even added history before she writes more from what she has learned when she is around at the convention.
Her tone, she seems to make it exicting, artistic, natural that makes us want to read more. She seems to try to convince people that taxidermy is art, an hobby, and that people has a love for animals but only in a dead way, and they want to show the world what animal really looks like upclose, and that taxidermy is very important. They had a World Taxidermy Championship, taxidermy was around for generations, they even have websites, they even make a lots of money, " Taxidermy is now estimated to be a five- hundred- and seventy-million-dollar annual business, made up of small operators around the country who mount animals for museums, for decorators, and mostly for the thirteen million or so Americans who are recreational hunters and occasion want to preserve and display something they killed and who are willing to shell out anywhere from two hundred dollars to mount a pheasant to several thousand for a kudu or a grizzly bear." She gave a good details of how much they make just for mounting animals, and made them sound like a profession not murder, which I still disagree. I think she picked a magazine to do her article in is to have people who has never experince those thing, and learn something new and accept it nor maybe try it because it is a natural thing. The genere she uses is odd because it doesn't matches the people who reads them but she knew what she was doing, why put it in taxidermy magazine if those people that reads it already knows, so put it some kind of people magazine or fashion magazine or gossip magazine so people would read it and understand why taxidermy is around.
