1) How is one visual technique used to capture the readers attention and engage them with the concept

of Change? 53 Time is a large influential magazine that, with its cover and the large words, would capture the readers attentions. The text straight underneath, The generation changing the world, captures the readers attention as through this capitalised text allows the reader to question the concept of Change. The vector lines allows the reader to make eye contact with the young people at the bottom of the page which is positioned to denote a realistic picture of multiculturalism and trustworthy people, further allowing the reader to engage into thinking about the concept of change made by the youth of todays society. 2) How does Bobby Ghosh use language to introduce and develop his attitude towards youth and political changes? The subheading introduces a admiration and disbelieved attitude towards the youth in bringing such large political change in the world seen through the rhetorical questioning, A generation toppled two dictators what do they want? The intertextuality of a rap in the article sung by the youth which directly questions the President, Miseries everywhere, Mr President/I see injustice everywhere demonstrates the willingness and passion of youths to protest and reinforces an attitude of admiration and disbelief. The evocative language towards the end, its easy to be disappointed when looking at the Middle Easts sad recent history. And yet something in the region feels as if it is changing, signifies the hope the youths have created in making a change in the world and political change through their use of technology, which demonstrates the development of admiration within youths of todays society. 3) How do two poetic techniques help to convey an attitude to youth, power and change? The rhythm of ABCB, We just feel like we dont have the means/To rise above and beat it, and the evocative language displays the hopeless attitude youth has towards the unfair hierarchy within society where youth have no power to decide and be listened to in society. The repetition of the chorus, so we keep waiting/Waiting on the world to change/We keep on waiting/Waiting on the world to change, depicts the patient waiting and the hope in waiting for change to arrive and for time to pass so the youth would have power within society. The enjambment, one day out generation/Is gonna rule the population emphasises the triumphant attitude of the youths to change and gain power within society seen through the hyperbole, gonna rule the population. 4) Select any two texts and justify why you think their representation of Change should be included on a website for Year 11 students in 2013?
