Choose an animal that you have had the opportunity to research and observe. Write about the world from your chosen animal's perspective. • Create as full a sense as you can of what your animal's life is like. • Think of an exciting event or encounter to write about.

I love being with my mum and cuddle her. Also, I enjoy being with other elephants. Some of them are my age, and we play in the water, or we make funny noises to each other to show how happy we are. When the days are hot, I enjoy throwing sand or dust on my body to protect it from the sun.

It is pretty quiet where I live. Some days I see these animals with longs tails that eat a lot of bananas and hang from the trees. Other days I see some striped black and white animals. They look so nice with their strips. The thing that I enjoy the most is when I see humans. Humans are so happy when they see us. Besides, I love their shape so much. Every time I see a human, I go towards him or her and touch their head with my trunk. They are adorable creatures. Even more, they always have delicious food that they give me while they pet me. I love being with humans!

Explanation:

In this description of the world through an animal, we can see how an elephant sees its world. Elephants enjoy being in groups, being with their mother when they are young, and playing in the water. They also make noises to communicate with other elephants or to express themselves.

The exciting event described is when they see humans. Elephants love humans when they see one. The reaction is of cuteness and happiness, which is the same reaction we have when we see one of these animals.

answer: a: they can affect the author’s perspective and in turn the theme and purpose for the writing.

the author's background and time period greatly affect the text that the author produces. this is because we are all a reflection of our time period and background. depending on where and when we were born, we will find some questions more important than others. for example, if we are a wealthy person born in medieval times, we will most likely be interested in courtly love and stories of knights and honour. however, if we are born in the 20th century in africa, we might instead focus on colonialism and its effects on the newly liberated countries. the theme and the purpose of writing are both affected by these conditions.
