How does the language of these two articles differ? What kinds of words do you see in each? How
would you describe?

The language in the news item is much more formal and transparent, while the one in the opinion
item is very subjective, the opinion of a certain person is directly exposed.In the first article you can
find words like: proven. Demonstrated, based on.In the second article we find expressions like : I
think, I believe, fee;, specific for expressing an opinion.
List the instances of opinion that are present in both articles.Are there any special words or
sentence structures that make the opinion obvious?Describe.
Instances of opinion that are present in both articles:
-no one is saving the crypto industry
-crypto industry need to stop looking for saviours
In the second article, the sentence “stop looking for saviours” makes the opinion obvious because it is
deduced very quickly that it is about FTX, the most important player that has just shocked the crypto
market after his bankruptcy.

Does the News item cover the facts thoroughly?
Explain
It covers the facts completely because they come
with a lot of examples based on different studies
from several sources, touching every point of the
problem.
Does the Opinion Item address both sides of the
opinion?Explain.
The opinion item addresses both sides of the
opinion.It offers a good explanation.It dosen’t
show us only the opinion of one side and this
helps to better understand the overall opinion.

Which article did you remember the most? Why? Which one told you more information about the
issue? Why?

I remember the second article more because it is related subjectively, which helps me remember it
easier.I think the first article gave me more information because more specialists in the field are
interviewed and they offer more details about the problem.
