In this article, it talks about the discovery of a new homo genus species, Homo naledi during an expedition in South Africa in 2013. More recent discoveries have also allowed us to date the fossils to be between 335,000 and 236,000 years ago. This article also talks about how they survived in their environment; using their teeth as clues due to the lack of other animals or tools associated with Homo naledi. Further into the article, it highlights some of the unanswered questions about Homo naledi. Some of these questions are how is Homo naledi related to other Homo species? and What was their diet?
In English, we have been given different texts to analyse and make connections. The texts that were given were Frankenstein (written & visual), Be Right Back (visual), Blade Runner (visual), and Ex Machina (visual). After analysing the text, here are some of the keywords I've come up with that I think connect to each other.
For Plato, the soul is the self. Plato perceives the human person to be made up of the body and soul. The soul consists of three parts: rational soul, spiritual soul, and appetitive soul. The rational soul is found in the head, it allows the person to think; while the spiritual soul can be found in the chest which allows the person to express their emotional feelings. Thirdly, the appetitive soul. It is found in the abdomen of a person, this allows a person to express their physical needs.
Pathos: Use of emotions to persuade a person or a group. A Greek word meaning "suffering", "experience", or "emotion". Used to appeal to the emotions of the audience to persuade them. An example of this can be seen in charity ads. "There are people starving in Africa. Donate now to help."
Logos: Usage of logic to persuade an audience. An example of this can be found in a toothpaste advertisement, saying that "9 out of 10 dentists approves"
Ethos: A contrast to pathos, ethos uses the audience's beliefs to persuade them. For example, people can use religion, culture, or personal beliefs to persuade the audience. "Say no to abortion. That child is God's gift!"
Method of cooking using direct dry heat, usually in an oven
Stewing
Slow cooking process in which food is gently simmered for a long time until it’s tender. A good method to use with tough cuts of meat. Casserole works in the same way but is heated in an oven rather than on top of the stove.
Roasting
Similar to baking. Food is cooked in an oven in a little oil or fat, uncovered. It is suitable for cooking larger cuts of meat and chicken.
Steaming
Moist method of cooking, using vapours from boiling water to heat and cook the food. This method retains valuable nutrients since the food does not come into contact with the liquid. Food remains moist and tender. Vegetables such as broccoli and carrots are often cooked this way.
Boiling
Moist cooking method. Food is gently cooked in a liquid such as water or stock. The liquid temperature reaches 100 degrees and this is when the method is occurring, it is then turned down to simmer until it is cooked and tender.
Grilling
Makes use of direct heat to cook and brown the surface of the food. It is a quick method of cooking because heat is direct and the food is already tender or easy to cook. BBQ is an example of this method.
Stir-frying
Quick-cooking method where ingredients are tossed in a pan or wok to cook at a high temperature. Little oil and water are sometimes added to give moisture to the dish.
Should avoid this method if you are trying to reduce the amount of oil or fat in your food plan
Why is it important to do different cooking method to reduce salt, fat, and sugar?
The text is about how people can change others positively by doing simple things. We know this because, at the start of the short film, the protagonist was, even though he had a choice to help others he chose not to and kept his hands in his pockets. Until an old lady held his hand to help her cross the road. As they were crossing to the other side, a car was speeding through the road, almost hitting them, making the protagonist take his hand out from his pockets and put his hand up; scared of getting hit. After crossing the road, the old lady thanked the protagonist for taking his time accompanying the old lady to cross the road. The protagonist then changed his attitude towards others and started helping those who are in need. I think the reason for this is to inform the audience that simple things can have a positive impact on people.
Why is the text written in the way it is?
The text is written in the way it is to inform the audience that people can help change others positively in the right time and change the world to a better place. This was shown when the protagonist was about to cross the road and a grandma held his hand for help. With the car travelling straight towards them, the protagonist was forced to take his hand out to gesture the car to stop. With all of what happened, the protagonist was moved. I think this was done to indicate the audience that they can help make the world a better place slowly, one person at a time.
How does the text construct a version of reality?
This text constructs a version of reality by portraying how people can have a positive impact on others even on simple things. There's another short film I found which I thought was related to the first short film with people showing kindness to others. How one guy showed kindness to a person and how they keep passing it on.
What do the images suggest?
The images in the first short film suggest a change of personality using the colour of clothes and body language of the protagonist. For example, at the start of the film, the protagonist was shown as a dull colour person, wearing grey clothes, and had his hands in his pockets. Which changes at the end of the film after what had happened to him. We see the protagonist change by the colour of his clothes, from grey coloured clothes to different coloured clothes. His body language also changed from gloomy to joyful. I think this was done to help indicate to the audience how the protagonist's personality changes after what has happened to him.

Use time-related specifics:
A part of Paragraph 2:
It was a burning afternoon when she asked me to hang around the park. The park was full of thick, towering trees with dark green leaves.
A part of Paragraph 6:
3 years later. I proposed to her at the beach. I planned it for about a month with the help of her friends. The anticipation of her saying yes to me gave me butterflies every time I think of it. 20/04/85, the sun was setting, the clouds painted orange, it was breezy.
Figurative Language for the sense of sound:
“Whooshhhhh”, the trees whispered as we walk on the soil mixed with gravel. “Scrunch, scrunch”, the ground crunched as we both wander around the park, holding hands, feeling the smooth, chill breeze.
Describe characters through action:
A part of Paragraph 4: While eating, we talked about what recently happened in our separate lives. Oh boy, the way her face glows, her smile widens, her eyes, her hazy, brown eyes distracts me from listening to her story. Paragraph 7: With tears rolling down her eyes, jumping with excitement she said yes. At that moment I felt like I was the luckiest man in the world. Adrenaline rushed through my body, my heart pounding, it felt like it was about to explode. I couldn’t stop smiling, it was the highlight of my day.
Show Characters through what they say and omit:

She was distracted by the sunset on the horizon which gave me enough time to kneel on one knee on the fine sand. It took her a minute to notice me kneeling down. I took the ring out and said in the most heartfelt and truest words in my life “Will you marry me?”
Replacing Words
Nouns - 3 years later. I proposed to her at the beach. - 3 years later, I proposed to her in Palawan, Philippines.

During yesterday's practical, we ensured that we limited the chance of contamination by:
- Using different chopping boards.
We used green chopping board when we were cutting vegetables. We also used the red chopping board when we were cutting red meat which in our case was beef. We did this to prevent cross-contamination from the blood of the red meat into our vegetables.
- Using tongs and a tray when collecting the beef.
When we were collecting our beef, we used tongs rather than our hand. This is to prevent bacteria from our hands contaminating into the beef.
- Using separate knives.
We used separate knives to cut our ingredients. We also made sure that the knives we used are clean and free of food particles. We used the red-handled knife to cut our beef and use the green-handled knife to cut vegetables. This also prevents cross-contaminating from the blood of the beef into the vegetables.
- Washing vegetables
After collecting the vegetables, we ensured that we washed them before cutting or putting them into our food. We did this to wash away any bacteria from the vegetables we used.
- Clean and sanitised work area
Before starting our practical, we ensured that we wiped our workbench with anti-bacterial spray. By doing this, we are changing the ph level of our workbench higher than ph level 7 which is the optimal growth of bacteria. Changing the ph level higher than the optimal level for bacteria means that the environment for the bacteria was changed therefore killing them.

What high-risk food was used? How do you have to handle to keep safe
The high-risk food my team used was ham. To keep safe, we used tongs to separate them rather than using our hands and we also used different cutting boards to cut our ham.
Explain the health and safety procedures you put in place prior, during, and after. Give 2 examples for each.
Prior to the practical, my group made sure that I washed my hands and cleaned and sanitised my workplace. People with long hair tied their hair to prevent them from touching the food when handling them.
During the practical, we made sure that we used different boards and knives to prevent cross-contamination when cutting the vegetables and the ham. We also ensured that we appropriately handled our knives when using them, not waving it around, pointing them downwards when going back to our workplace after acquiring them.
After the practical, we ensured that we cleaned my workspace by using an anti-bacterial spray to kill off bacteria. We washed the dishes we used and stored them back to where we got them from. How do you know that the process/strategies you put in place maintained the safety of your food?
By doing these strategies, I am making sure that I killed all the bacteria around my workplace and prevented cross-contamination.
Yesterday was market day, the day where we sell our products. Our coffee jelly sold out very quickly and our cinnamon doughnuts were successful even though we only cooked it twice in our life and never had any doubts. Another positive about our business is that we made $57.50 at the end of the day. The night before yesterday, we were trying out our to see if it would be a good product to sell.
Before starting, my business group thought maybe we could try a different recipe to make our cinnamon doughnuts. About 20 minutes of mixing the ingredients, I smelt something burning. I looked at our oven and found out it was where the smell was coming from. So I opened the oven and a thick smoke came out and we had to use teatowels to take the smoke out by spinning it to make a fan. Which took us about 10 or so minutes to finish our experiment. After the incident, my business group decided to stick with our original recipe to make our cinnamon doughnuts and it turned out to be a good decision for us. If we were to do it again, we won't bake our product because of what happened to the oven. We would also try to be more careful when making our product.
Historians argue that understanding the cause of significant events is much more important than just remembering facts, dates, and figures about things in the past.
The Treaty of Waitangi was about the agreement between the British and the Māori which was signed in 1840. The Treaty of Waitangi is needed to construct laws between the Māori and the British colony in New Zealand. Signed in 1840, the British and the Māori established laws for the diverse society to follow. Although the Treaty of Waitangi was written and signed in the past, it is still relevant for the newer generation of today's society.
Before the Treaty of Waitangi was established, the people's behaviour in Kororāreka was lawless and chaotic. By establishing the treaty, laws were produced, creating a list of rules for people to follow. Therefore reducing the lawlessness and chaotic behaviour of the whalers. These include heavy drinking which caused fights between the sailors and prostitution; all occurring on Kororāreka/Russell which in the time became known as the 'Hell Hole of the Pacific'. The treaty was needed to make an agreement between the Pākeha and the Māori to create laws to stop the lawlessness behaviour from happening.
The missionaries influenced the Māori into signing the treaty to protect their rights. The missionaries influenced the Māori by buying land for them as the Māori 'trustees', the missionaries also taught the Māori literature. Christianity was introduced by the missionaries to the Māori which taught the Māori how to write and read in Māori. The treaty was needed because it helped both the Europeans and the Māori to be in a good relationship with each other.
The introduction of muskets to New Zealand caused an uproar of violence causing a series of wars which today is known as the Musket Wars. With the introduction of muskets, land boundaries rapidly changed. It also raised military power after tribes traded for muskets, for protection, balancing the tribes' powers with each other. The musket wars caused increased violence and deaths of thousands of people because there were no laws around the ownership/trading of muskets. The treaty prevented these from happening any longer and provide stability.
Before the treaty, there was the Declaration of Independence, signed on October 28 1835. With the Declaration of Independence, about 34 Northland Chiefs gathered and signed the document. The chiefs also made a deal with the British: mana and sovereignty of New Zealand. The effect of all of this was important because there were no laws created to protect the Māori as had been agreed in the Independence. The declaration is also the stepping stone for the Māori because it showed that some groups/tribes wanted to work together for a better community. The treaty was needed to establish new laws to protect the Māori.
The events that occurred before the Treaty of Waitangi was signed showed clear reasons to why the treaty was required. Occasions such as the Musket Wars and the lawlessness behaviour of the whalers in Korerāreka proved that the treaty was needed to stabilise the different situations that happened. With the Declaration of Independence, it helped lead the Māori to sign the treaty. The Declaration of Independence was the stepping stone of the Māori which allowed them to create laws but it never occurred due to the fact that a disagreement had sparked a war, tribes against tribes. In conclusion, the treaty was needed to unite the people in New Zealand to have a good relationship with each other and to create peace.
