PEE Paragraph for transcript technique
Natasha in the transcript uses constraints when talking to the teacher in order to set boundaries as to what can and can't be said or done when speaking to students, this also shows the audience that although the teacher is a higher power, due to his obligations as a teacher, the students still have some power over him. An example of this is where Natasha says 'Amorous?' this informs the teacher that there is a language barrier between them and the he should tone down the use of low frequency lexical choices. It also is effective as the use of the interrogative forces the teacher to stop what hes talking about and answer the question due to his obligations as a teacher.
PEE Paragraph for 'Drummer Hodge' scene technique
Bennet uses adjacency pairing throughout the speech between Hector and Posner possibly to represent the characteristics which they both share in turn meaning they see each other as peers. An example of this is when Posner say 'No, Hardy' and Hector replies with 'Oh, how old was Hardy?' as previously stated both Hector and Posner share similar views in relation to there sexuality and love for Dakin etc. therefore the use of adjacency pairing shows that there is a link between them.
PEE Paragraphs for linguistic techniques in 'The History Boys'  
In 'The History Boys' Bennett uses an ellipses in order to display confusion or at times uses it in order to add tension. One example of this is when Posner says 'He liked you... didn't he?' in this case the ellipsis is used both to show Posner's lack of understanding in relation to the topic but also it is used in order to add tension to the scene due to it being a rather 'touchy' subject for both Posner and Irwin.

In the conversation between Irwin and Posner Bennett also uses asyndetic listing to show the audience the line is being spoken quickly. An example of this is where Irwin says 'eye catching, showy, false' the lack of conjunctions shows a rush in the way Irwin is explaining his point this may be used to represent his frustration in the realization that what he taught the boys was a waste of time or possibly this may just be a way for Irwin to establish an educational high ground and show that he is still in power like when he was teaching the boys.

Finally Benett uses taboo language in this scene in order to represent how Irwin has fully moved on from teaching. An example of this is when Irwin says 'Now fuck off' the swearing Irwin uses here contrasts what we have seen from him throughout the play, although Irwin had touched on subjects which are seen as inappropriate in the class room, he always knew where the boundaries were which contrasted Hectors teaching style. But now he has left the schools these boundaries have been forgotten and his ways almost seem more like Hectors which could be due to his rejection from Dakin leaving him with no one to love much like how Hector was never truly in love either.

Will analysis of 'Death Row - The Final 24 Hours'

'Countdown, the final 24 hours, to execution.' This is the opening sentence to 'Death Row - The Final 24 Hours' It is a minor sentence which displays a sense of urgency through the narrator (Ted Marcoux), setting the tone for the documentary as it is very fast pace in parts such as describing the procedures.Ted Marcoux uses the word 'execution' at the end of the sentence for some added intensity and also the represent the end of someones life, execution is also a word which hits hard to a lot of people due to it being a controversial subject so this sentence intrigues the audience.     

How does the article inform and entertain the reader?-                                                                                                                    The article uses a mix of facts and opinions from people close to the victim in order to put across the main details of the situations whilst also introducing some alternative ideas of what happened. The article also provides facts such as the size and weight of the python ‘The python weighed about 125lb (56kg) and measured 20ft (6m) long’ to add a bit of shock factor to the article in turn making the audience want to keep on reading. The article also provides some controversy with the quotes used as one says ‘It was only by the grace of God that one of the officers knew how to deal with snakes’ which emphasises the need for the police to arrive, the use of the noun ‘God’ shows that it was so lucky that it seemed as if there was a higher power involved, really emphasising the extent to which the assistance was needed. However the next quote contradicts this by saying ‘She said “her father's life was never in danger”’ this quote is used to put the audience in a state of questioning whether or not what the police have said is true or not in turn intriguing the reader. The use of the adverb ‘never’ adds intensity and assurance to the quote establishing the certainty that the victim would have been fine without the authorities.

  

Place I know well - Bristol
I love my city, but hate it too. Which is why although I am angered by the the fact that Bristol has the reputation of its population consisting of primarily farmers and farmers wives, living here for sixteen years has lead me to believe that a reputation like that is far better than the one which is deserved. In reality if you were to take a walk through Bristol center on a standard afternoon and collected data of the types of people you see, I'm sure the majority of the population would consist of a mixture of teenage chavs, alcoholic middle aged men and homeless people begging for money. Not quite the idealistic community hoped for from one of the UK's most sustainable city.  

However my city is not one which lacks interesting architecture such as the royal suspension bridge, overlooking the slimy mud river which runs beneath and the S.S Great Britain, gracefully floating next to the rat infested docks. Although this may come across as an exaggeration of the 'small imperfections' of Bristol, I assure you the sight of cat sized rats scurrying under docks like trolls under a bridge, may leave you slightly more empathetic.

But like I said, I love my city. This is the place where I've grown up and this is the place where some of my fondest memories as based in such as...      

The History Boys Character Run Downs | Will Thompson -

• Hector - Hector is an eccentric old fashioned teacher who refuses to conform to the modern ways of teaching and often disagrees with Irwin's teaching style. Hector teaches a very broad range of subjects shown by having a french lesson reenacting a brothel as one of his lessons however he insists this is useful knowledge which develops the boys language skills. 'All knowledge is precious whether or not it serves the slightest of human use'. Hector is also a pedophile and touches the boys on his motorcycle, he tries to justify this however Tott and the headmaster take it very seriously I see no excuse for his actions. Finally Hectors teaching inspire all the boys however Posner arguably more than others.
• Miss Lintott (Tott or Totty) - Miss Lintott contrasts Hector in teaching styles as she is purely interested in teaching the boys the facts and history where as Hector is more interest in culture and broadening the boys mind even if it does not follow the curriculum. However Miss Lintott in still very fond of Hector and admires him in some ways. Tott also feels strongly about the sexism shown throughout history and is not afraid to explain this to the boys. Finally Miss Lintott is aware of the line between teacher and pupil and advises Irwin to keep his personal feelings to himself.
• Irwin - Irwin is different from Miss Lintott and Hector as he is only a fews years older than the boys so is far more relatable to them. He teaches the boys to approach the exam and history as a game and tells them how to beat it by saying the opposite to the question. Irwin also contrasts Hector and Miss Lintott as the boys seem to have power over him both in the lessons and when Dakin offers himself to him he cannot help but to fall for his urges.
• Headmaster (Hector) - The headmaster is portrayed as a fool, he is far less inteligent than all the other teaches and his attitude towards Oxbridge is mocked by the others. He also shows throughout that he is very self centered and only cares about the results of the students as well as the his own reputation rather than caring about the repercussions his actions make on students and teachers.
• Posner - Posner is madly in love with Dakin and Dakin is aware of this but uninterested, Posner is also aware that Irwin shares his feelings and he notices him also admiring Dakin. Posner does not fit in fully with the others as shown by Hector not letting him on his bike. Posner gets into Cambridge mostly due to his paper on Hitler where he showed detachment from his Jewish roots which was praised however this exemplifies that although Irwin's methods worked they were still amoral. 
• Dakin - Dakin is the leader of the boys and is favored by both Hector and Irwin, as well as Posner who loves him, he also understands the game which Irwin is trying to teach. Dakin is also a manipulator in many ways, he uses sex to get what he want e.g. with Fiona and Irwin, and also manipulates Felix by using blackmail to keep Hector hired. Finally it is shown throughout that Dakin is not a very morale person, this is shown through the ways he talks to Posner and how he talks about Fiona.
• Scripps - Scripps is a strong christian and a budding writer, he narrates some openings to scenes and Posner and Dakin often confess to him as if he were a priest. It is likely that Scripps is a representation of Bennet. 
• Rudge - Rudge is the least intelligent of the boys and the teachers regard him as a 'lost cause', he is also patronized occasionally by the boys and teachers however he is not not stupid and recognizes this. Rudge is also very hard working and excels in sports, he makes it clear he does not have an interest in history and cares more about proving to others that he can get in to university rather than actually getting into the university.
• Timms - Timms is the class clown who tries to find a joke from anything, he is often subject to whack from Hector and enjoys teasing Irwin. 
• Lockwood, Akthar and Crowther - These three boys are not given strong personality's, however input with the quick witted repartee within both Hector and Irwins lessons. Crowther is a keen actor, Akthar is a Muslim and Lockwood is a shrewd film buff who is interested in politics.

The language I use when speaking to adults and people I am unfamiliar with tends to be quite formal as apposed to when i'm speaking to friends and family, the language I use then tends to be much more informal and I also have a slightly more distinct Bristolian accent. Also when I am in a situation where I have to talk to someone I dislike or don't want to talk to my language is blunt and the tone of my voice is very dull. Finally when I write a text message I will try to abbreviate as much language as possible to save time.
