SUBJECT
1. I think the practical goal(s) that Merwin wants to achieve through his impractical
directions maybe by letting the readers understand the beauty in its
imperfections. In every situation we need a little push of courage and
determination in picking up parts of ourselves and build it as a whole.
2. The unchopper cant enlist the aid of nature because nature there is a
representation of uniqueness of its individuals on handling their situations in life.
Mens work through their dreams and aspirations in life.
3. For me, ourselves told us that it cant be helped because whatever other people
say about the situation or problem we have but only us can planned our life in
dealing those. We know ourselves better than them so we are the one to decide
what are going to do.
4. The information does Merwin give the reader about a tree and its environment
is the importance of the tree in the environment because without trees in the
environment the great disaster will be happening same as to us when we dont
believe in ourselves that we can do it.
5. I think we need to try in believing in ourselves that we can do much beyond what
we know or expect.
STRATEGY
1. Merwin chose process analysis as the organizational strategy for this essay
because he wants us not just to understand but to come up with realization of
what is the essence of tree in the environment and believing in ourselves deeply.
2. Merwins essay is an informal process analysis because it expresses personal
experiences or observation on human nature in representation of tree and
environment.
3. Merwins tone in his essay was subjective. Practice, practice. Put your hope in
that and you are afraid the motion of the clouds will be enough to push it over.
4. By letting his readers realize the importance of the trees and environment and
your determination in life. My reaction was I need to know myself better and push
that I can do everything I want to do.
5. We need to think before we make any decisions because when we decide
afterwards theres a lot of possibility that we will fail. We need to be sure in any
decisions in life so that we are assures in everything will be happening around
us.

There are a lots of new things that can be learned when a teenager goes into

relationships. This practice is an essential skill, which they will hone throughout their
adult lives. Teens begin to develop an understanding of how intimate relationships work.
They find what factors contribute to successful relationships, but also discover what
they need and desire from intimate others. These early dating relationships often lead to
fulfilling and caring adult relationships, adding credence to this positive aspect ot
teenage dating.
