The poem I have chosen is Small Dragon by Brian Patten.
The poem appeals to children's imagination to tell them about a dragon that the author has found in the forest. The author depicts the dragon. He says that it feds on many things like grass, roots of stars, hazel nut and dandelion. Then the author says the dragon made a nest among the coal not unlike a bird but larger. the author says that if you believed in it he would come hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder. In this way he leans on children's innocense to make them believe.
What I liked about this poem is that in a world in which children are treated like adults and they have to worry about life. In a world in which children are forced to work and they have to make a living, there is this dragon that appears in the forest. Thus the author appeals to the innocense of children to make them believe in a wonderful creature, in a wonderful life.
The quote that I like is
If you believed in it I would come
hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder,
Because that makes me think that there is a dragon, that there is a wonderlful creature in the forest. I just have to believe.

A critical analysis essay aims to review or to critique something and when you write one you should always use FORMAL (option C) language.
In the second question you want to find the best option that persuades someone to eat tortillas, thus you should use the word ENHANCE (option A), because it means tortillas will improve the flavor or the quality of any dish. In other words, the other options are saying tortillas can be eaten with any dish and that it'll taste good, but if you use enhance, you are saying tortillas will make any dish taste better, which is a persuasive argument.
The review of the argument of the writer is as follows:
- He makes use of the bandwagon fallacy when he talks about the statistics of people who said Daylight Savings has made them less productive.
- The argument would have been more convincing if he had made use of good supporting details.
<h3>What is an Argument?</h3>
This refers to the use of words and logic in order to convince a person about a given perspective or position on a particular topic.
Hence, we can see that the writer makes an argument to abolish Daylight Savings and tries to be forceful about it, without the use of proper supporting details.
He does not include the source of the research that talks about the 88% of workers who said Daylight Savings reduced their productivity, and he also made use of the bandwagon fallacy.
