Today, we will revisit "Blind Ambition" and look at the way the aurthor orgaized the information. We will analyze the text to see if we can identify which text structur's they used and discuss how it contributes to the author's overall purpose.
Authors often organize information in logical ways so readers can understand key ideas and how they fit together.
Readers who can identify the structure will better understand the text, remember the important information, and be able to use the structure to write their own texts.
