__J ____ T ____ i ____ m ____ e ____ d ____ B ____ C ____ R ____ 3 ____J __ I think the author’s purpose in “Dianna Golden, Go for the Gold” is to inform. I think it is to inform because it gives dates, times, and events in the text. It says: “In 1979, when she was just 17, Dianna earned a spot on the US Disabled Skiing Team.” The text explains what happened in Dianna’s life. It doesn’t say “We should all be like her” like a persuading text would. It doesn’t say things that didn’t happen, like a fiction story book would. This is how I know it is inform. __ R ____ e ____ f ____ l ____ e ____ c ____ t ____ i ____ o ____ n __ For this BCR I got a three out of four. Again, I could have added more textual support and examples from my own life.
