Imagery

"A touch of the hand and this burning would, on the instant, beautifully reverse itself."
Imagery is describing something with the five senses.The Sound of Thunder describes the time machine and the time travel with a lot of imagery. The machine gives light :" the light of the Machine on his thin face."  
We can feel the machine making noise: "The Machine slowed; its scream fell to a murmur. The Machine stopped." We can see out of the time machine: "First a day and then a night and then a day and then a night, then it was day-night-day-night." "The sun stopped in the sky." 
"Roses sweten the air" this is imagery because it describes to you what you can smell ' roses ' which means that the smell is comfortable and nice. The examples are good imagery because when you read the text you can image what is happening and what you can smell.

Thesis statement

'Shockwaves have hit the EU like an out of control bulldoser'. Todays newspapers talk about the migrant crisis and the results. The Daily mail is negative towards the migrants. It's a xenophobic paper.  Xenophobia is fear or hatred of strangers or foreigners. For example, they use words such as 'migrant crisis' which refers to the people in a bad way. This is because 'migrant' says that they are coming by choice, where as 'refugee' shows that they don't have a choice. Another example is 'out of control bulldoser' the word 'bulldoser' refers to very aggressive and powerful in a negative way. The Daily Mail uses the word 'crisis' a lot. The Daily Mail makes it's readers believe what they already think.

Migrants in Hungary paragraph

Migrants in Hungary:
Hungary is in big trouble because lots of migrants want to come over the boder, however since Hungary made a fence so that they cannot come in, the migrants try to handle this situation with aggression. Bbc and lots of other news said that may be no problem now, however when the big crowd of migrants come there will be no way to get out of this situation. Also if Europe doesn't solve this problem the migrants will have a rough time because winter is coming and the migrants have no money or blankets which means they will freeze and then die. The european union should find a solution to resolve this problem before the trouble comes.
