2. In lines 8–11 below from “Hurricane Hunters: Flying Right into the Storm,” the author uses a craft technique. “A hurricane flight is often more than just a bumpy ride. It can be a slam bang, stomach churning, spine jarring, heaving, yawing, pounding nightmare of a ride with pilots struggling at the controls and meteorologists straining to read their instruments,” said meteorologist Al Peterlin. Explain the craft technique(s) the author used and why the author may have used this technique(s). Also, if the author had made different craft choices, how would that have affected the text?
When analyzing author’s craft, remember to:
•identify craft technique(s) the author used
•write about the writerly goal(s) the author seems to have been aiming toward
•elaborate on how these technique(s) support the author’s goals, writing at least a few sentences
•as part of the above, write about how the text would have been different if the author had made different craft choices.
