Okefenokee Swamp
Okefenokee Swamp The author two passages are informative about Florida’s Okefenokee Swamp. The author in Passage 1 supports this claim by using simple sentences to describe the swamp then finally using the last sentence as the negative thing about the swamp. Passage 1’s purpose is to inform tourists so they would want to visit, creating an inviting tone for the audience. The author in passage 2 supports this claim by informing about the smallest to biggest negative things about the swamp, then finally connecting the swamp with a “hellish zoo”. Passage 2’s purpose is to inform the improvements for the tourists about the swamp, creating a negative tone for the audience being researchers or geologist.
Passage 1 uses visual imagery to describe elaborately the positive nature at the Okefenokee Swamp. The “primitive swamp” is located in “southeastern Georgia and northern Florida” and is a “shallow saucer-shaped.” Passage 1 also dramatically uses adjectives to inform about the unique qualities you can find present at the swamp, “exotic flowers such as floating hearts, and rare orchids” located in the “open water”. Passage 1 informs persuasive material to try to attract tourists to visit but as the passage has sucked the audience in it gives almost a subliminal message about the alligators being present so the visitors will know but ignore it because of all the other positive attracts at the Swamp. Passage 2 uses imagery to describe the downfalls of the swamp. “Muck, mud, slime, and ooze” which exaggerates the description of the “Four hundred and thirty thousand Acres.” The passage also is very concrete with verbs to inform about how much of a “misery of life” the swamp is comparing the swamp to a “hellish zoo”. Passage 2 uses order of organization for the least dangers of the swamp to the greatest dangers. Showing the audience, just because there is “stinging, biting, and boring insects” there is also hundreds of species with “beaks, talons, claws, teeth, stingers
