Title: A legacy of service: Three generations of Pines family have served in military
Author: Perry Stein
Source: The Miami Herald
The topic of the article is all about loyalty
The main idea of the article is: Bolivar Perez Rios he was a great soldier in many wars and he was awarded, he passed down his talents to three more generations. (implied)
The author’s purpose for writing this article is to give an inform us of one military soldier who has served his country very well.
The author’s perspective in this article is subjective (biased) because he is talking about
only one soldier in the army and his perspective.
The pattern of organization of the article is flashback.
The reason the author chose this pattern for the article is because it was talking about Bolivar’s life back in the day and how he served in the army from a young age.
The text features included in the article are: Illustrations helped me by letting the reader know who Bolivar is and his generations. Subtitles, this helps by letting the reader know which person is which.
This article is about (a summary in your own words) the different generations of Bolivar, a Puerto Rican soldier, who helped in the army and received many prizes like the blue heart, and the bronze star. He inspired his children, grandchildren, and soon his great grandchildren.
The significance (importance) of this article is that it lets you know how a Hispanic person helped in many wars, and this was just one person.
What I learned from this article is if you are good at something like at war, you might be able to influence other people because of your respect to the country.
What I liked about this article is that it gave an example of someone that was celebrated in veteran’s day.
What I did not like about it was really nothing it entertained me a lot.
Who should read this article and why: people who want to know about some people who helped in wars and all of that they should read this article because it gave the example of Bolivar helping in war ever since World War 2
This article reminds me of (text-to-self) how I respect my country, Israel, and the country I am now living in, U.S.
(Text-to-text) I cannot really relate this to any book.
(text to world) It relates tto people who had just had a life like his and are his age in the real world.
