What Is a Life Worth

1. I have not read anything from Time Magazine.
2. I know that Time Magazine is a very well known and affluent publication containing many articles about news today.
3. The types of articles that are included are exposes, interviews, and national and international news about politics and technology.
4. Typical adults could read Time Magazine but its usually more affluent people that read it such as lawyers, doctors, etc.

1. I can predict that the article will be about the moral controversy that a life has actual monetary value, something offensive to the families involved.
2. They both talk about valuing life economically, not philosophically.
3. I think the article will be from a third person point of view because the article isn't written by a person that this has happened to.

1. The article is fairly unbiased as it does show equal examples and scenarios describing why it is so controversial even though the government is just trying to do the right thing and do the most they can do short of bringing them back.
2. The author uses a few different types of evidence such as family portrayals, statistics, and some examples of events the author has attended in regards to it. The most effective of these is the family portrayals because they are very emotional.
3. I think the information in the article is trustworthy because Times Magazine is a very reputable publication and things like this truly do happen in society today because due to the abundance of people in the world life has become less precious and lives are measured by monetary means.
4. The authors evidence is based on his use of both logic and emotion to show how offensive this is to the families involved. The family examples stir up a lot of emotion in the text and the statistics backed up those emotions with reason for it. Shakespeare uses more and stronger emotions such as the conflict of reason and action.
