AIDS Walk New HavenB. American Red Cross at YaleC. Best BuddiesD. Bridges ESLBPersonally, I love writing reviews of any kind
38、 mostly because that way I can put all my thoughts about the subject on the paper. Before we go on, I have to mention it is different when you write a review for yourself i.e. your blog or website and for your professor in college. To an untrained eye, reviews may seem pointless. Whats the point of
39、writing about something when other people and your professor have already read the book? Isnt it enough to talk about it in the class? Just as movie reviews develop your critical thinking, book reviews do the same. It is not enough to read a book and call it a day; you have to establish your opinion
40、, your likes, and dislikes. When a professor gives you this assignment, he/she wants to see your abilities to analyze the book and use vocabulary skills to discuss different parts of the plot. Since we are accustomed to writing book reports at a very young age, it comes as no surprise we dont think
41、book reviews are different than a book report. Contrary to the popular belief, book reviews and book reports are two different types of writing. Knowing how they differ is essential for writing a high-quality paper that will guarantee a good grade. Book reports usually centre around topical details
42、about the author and the plot of the story. On the other hand, a book review is a more complicated approach to understanding and discussing a book. It doesnt centre around a summary of each section, but you have to carry out a thorough analysis. As you grow and develop as a student, so does your abi
43、lity to think critically. You dont just sum up what youve just read but analyze every piece of the puzzle in order to show the ability not only to pay attention to detail but also engage thinking critically. Here, you have to be careful that you arent, actually, just retelling the story.While book r
44、eviews may contain some elements of book reports e.g. author, characters, plot, the emphasis is to provide a more detailed insight, go deeper and elaborate strengths and weaknesses of the book, and discuss the elements of the story. You know the difference between book reports and book reviews, now
45、what? Now youre ready to begin the assignment. In order to write a thorough book review, you have to pay attention to everything about the book, which is why writing down the information about the author, genre etc. is strongly advised. Thats why youll need a pen and notebook where you can write eve
46、rything.58. According to the passage, what should be done before starting to write a review?A. Identifying the target reader. B. Consulting with your professor.C. Developing an interest in reviews. D. Listing all your thoughts on the paper.59. The author shows the importance of a book review mainly by _. A. giving a solid example B. making a reasonable assumptionC. drawing a valid comparisonD. pro
