B. Reflection

First, I not understand the material of feature lead, bodies, and conclusion, but I read many material from pdf about feature leads, and after I read the material, I understand about common types of feature leads, that is first, Allosion leads, its give the reader a reference to a character from history, literature or mythology and relate that reference. Second, Anecdotal leads, this type of ead uses a brief story to represent the universal experience. Third, contrast leads, these leads point out opposite, such as hot and cold, wet and dry. Fourth, Parody leads, a weel known song, poem phrase or title can be re-written to begin your story. Fifth, Narrative leads, through reading the lead, the reader feels as though he or she in the middle of the action. Sixth, descriptive leads, the lead can describe a person, a place or an event. Seventh, starting statement leads, this type of lead consist of a single statement which is designed to startle the reader. Eighth, Question leads, this type of lead with caution.

After I understand about feature leads, next I learning about the body of story, some of the technique which help sustain a piece are: repetition of core themes, metaphors and figurative language, varying sentence and paragraph length and pace, consider the point of view. Next, I learning about the end of the story, and the material is about several ways to end the story, here are few of the most common ones, that is end on a powerful quote, e d wirh an anecdote, summarize the story in the sunal paragraph briefly, circle back to the end.

C. Summary

Feature Leads

The leads is vitally important to the story. No matter how well the body or conclusion is written if the leads does ot grab the attention of the reader and hold it. Here are some common types of feature leads:

1. Allusion leads give the reader a reference to a character from history literature and mythology and relate that reference to what is going on in the story.

2. Anecdote leads, this type of lead uses a brief story to represent the universal experience

3. Contrast leads, these leads point out opposites, such as hot and cold, we and try, then and now.

4. Parody leads, a well known song, poem, phrase or title can be written to begi your story, if the reference is clear.

5. Narrative leads, through reading the lead, the reader feels as though he or she is in the middle of the action.

6. Descriptive leads, the lead can describe a person, a place or an event

7. Starting statement lead, this type of lead consist of a single statement which is designed to startle the reader, then, in subsequent paragraphs, it goes on to explain the situation.

8. Question lead, use this type of lead with caution.



The body of the story

Some of the techniques wich help sustain a piece are:

a. Repetition of core themes, metaphors and figurating language. For example a feature article profiling a hight school basketball player might feature verbal images of the locker room, the baskerball court and the workout room players lifestyle.

b. Verying sentence and paragraph length and pace. For example the president said at the meeting that “media practitioners often oact in an autonomous, amoral and irregular manner, journalists, in other wordm are a bad lot”.

c. Consider the point of view, every story is told from a point of view.



The end of story

a. End on a powerful quote, this will give the reader something to think about as he or she finishes the story

b. End with an anecdote, can be very effective if you began with an anecdotal lead, moving into the story itself before the original anecdote was completely told.

c. Summarize the story in the final paragraph briefly, use and add-on closing, which makes a point in the end which was never addressed in the story it self.

d. Circle back to back the lead, restate something from the lead if it helps to complete the message that the story is trying to convey.
