Parody/Pastiche

original text: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/nov/16/isis-bombs-hostage-syria-islamic-state-paris-attacks Rationale I have read the text of 'I was held hostage by ISIS. They fear our unity more than airstrikes'. This text is an opinion column which shows the author's opinion about how ISIS can be innocent.

Practice IOC

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7j4eKx5EtWjZE9IeUs2a2Z5eDg/view?usp=sharing Reflection: I went through numerous trials, however, all of them were too short for the time limit. I would need to practice talking and analyzing in dept. I also find it difficult to make the conclusion. After certain period of time (around 6-7 minutes), I run out of things to say and ends my IOC in a very awkward way.
