  What do you notice abotu the language Anderson uses? What is his purpose for doing so? How is it effective?

I notice that the languages that Anderson uses is the language that today teen uses and it's trend of language that is meant to be used. For example "if we were to take a time trian back into the 1990's the people that exist at the time wouldn't say " that's the ****" but maybe they will say " that's nice" or " buddy" instead of "dude"". Another example is the word "UNIT"--it's used as dude and it's a word that they invented through out time. THe languauge that he uses is slang. His purpose of using slang is to make the teenager more like teenagers for we-- teenagers uses more slng then just plain words to talk to one another. In my opinion i think that this language that is being used by Anderson brings more eyes and readers to the book. IT also shows somewhat of a real teenaegr uses and choices in words.

• What do you know about thefunction of the "feeds" such as "going fugue" (pg.7)," the feed suggestsed'supplu'"(pg.11), advertisements at the end of chapters, etc. What does this all mean?

The feed is HITLER. IT is hitler becuase in the holocaust hitler took over or brain wash many people into doing the things he wants them to do and made them took commands. The feed some how takes apart at it by slowly taking control over the human body beign the brain for them and making the choice for them. The feed is also the technology for them( ipods, cell phones, enternet, etc....) The feed helps shows advertisements, give then songs to listen to( play for them), tell prices of things, looks up things that they want to know, give information, and let then connect with others that are far away. For example: "she would pause ans we can tell she was m-chattign all the news back to the friends down on earth" (pg.52) For me i feel like this means the ending of human beigns own brains but the control of technology at which was made by human hands itself.

• The girls have to change their hair frequently becuase the style change. What does this statement tell us abotu the trends in the novels?

This statement tells us that everyone likes to be on top of the trend in this novel and that many new trend are out daily. Also tells us that new trend is not staying new for a longtimefor so many are getting it like the very next secoud that it comes out. New trends are what everyone in the book wants to be in or have. For example " when violet was wearing a wool and that e other girls was in the bathroom fixing their hair to look like the newest tren." It 's just like us, today. WE all live our life and have our own fashion until soemthing new comes our way than every one starts to get it. An example is skinny jeans: we all wear skinny jeans for it;s the new trend in the fashion world for an girl ( some boys also wear it too.) Basically it tells us that the new trend is the new goods form this statement.
