For today's assignment,from many letters,I picked up the letter entitled "Protect the whales off Australia" written by Craig Stringer.It is a claim about Japanese whaling including Migaloo who is an Australian preferred humpback whale in order to do research him.The plan will start in less than one week and she thinks it should not be done.
Through her logic,she is trying to make readers realize that how Japanese plan is stupid by using numbers of how many whales they are
planing to kill(in this case,she insists 50 humpback whales and 10 fin whales would be killed)and she explains the detailed tragic process of researching whales like their bodies are born and peered.These contents implies that the plan would lead to an extinction of Australian whales and in addition to that,although she does not use her emotion in the letter directly,she is trying to warn Japanese government not to do it for the future.
She seems to have proud as Australian from the letter because she mentions that Australian government does not do such a thing which might lead to an extinction rather it keeps protecting from now on.So,one thing that she is an Australian is her authority in this letter.
