In this unit, you have been exploring how authors use informational texts to communicate with audiences. You've also seen how authors communicate their point of view, tone, and purpose in a text.

When a writer composes a text, that writer takes time and thought to shape the text so the elements work in harmony. That is, the point of view, tone, and purpose all contribute to a unified message. But what about more informal writing and conversations? They usually aren’t carefully planned out like an essay. Think of some examples of informal writing or a conversation you can recall well. Describe how clearly they express a unified point of view, tone, and purpose. Compare them to at least one formal informational text. Discuss why you think the two modes of communicating are different or the same.

Answer:

In my opinion, I think a conversation can express a unified point of view and purpose. I think this because in a conversation, people make lots of points by arguing/debating, about how they think of something and what the purpose is about it. Although you don't really write out a conversation, you talk when your having a conversation. They are not very organized either. A formal informational text is very organized and gets the point across pretty easily and clearly. A conversation and a formal informational text are pretty different because even though conversations can give info, they also are full of opinions and can be pretty bias and informational texts are obviously very informational and they are very organized. That is why I think they are different.
