Ironman
Ironman is about a boy named Bo. Bo has been
fighting with his dad for a while, and has turned his anger towards his
teachers in outbursts. Bo trains him self to the limit as a triathlete. Bo is
really close to being expelled from school because of all these outbursts with
his teachers. Soon enough Bo gets assigned to anger management.
So far this book has been good but I still need to finish the book I am still
in the beginning. My guess right now is that Bo freaks out and a whole incident
happens in school but this book seems like an exciting book. Another prediction
I have is that Bo will have a big fight with his dad.

In this post it shows
my voice because it describes the book in my voice and how I would put it in my
own words. “Bo is really close to being expelled from school because of all
these outbursts with his teachers.” In this quote it shows how I use the word
outbursts as important word that show these little outbursts of anger from his
Dad. My personality in this is probably like how I emphasis the word outbursts
with his Dad and his teachers. This word helps set how important his anger is
in the story.

Example of syntax for
# 2. “Bo has been fighting with his dad for a while, and has turned his anger
towards his teachers in outbursts.” This piece of syntax could be a balance sentence
because their likeness in length. An example for Diction in #2. “Bo trains him
self to the limit as a triathlete.” In this piece of Diction it could be a piece
of Jargon/ low informal because you don’t hear triathlete a lot and a
triathlete is “A triathlon
is a multiple-stage competition involving the completion
of three continuous and sequential endurance disciplines.[1]
While many variations of the sport exist, triathlon, in its most
popular form, involves swimming, cycling, and running in
immediate succession over various distances.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triathlete
