Title: Animal shelter's behavior experts face life and death decisions for animals
Author: John Owens
Source: The Miami Herald or Chicago Tribune
The topic of the article is animal shelter decisions
The main idea of the article is: An animal shelter in Chicago that is a anti-cruelty based shelter has to chose decision that regards to life and death situations to animals. It is stated.
The author’s purpose for writing this article is to tell the reader about what animal shelters do to check the animals behavior
The author’s perspective in this article is objective/subjective (not biased) because he does not show any form of opinions.
The pattern of organization of the article is in flashback, fact by fact, and a interview of the animal shelter.
The reason the author chose this pattern for the article is to focus on the main idea to talk about what is happening in the animal shelter.
The text features included in the article are: quotes from the interview of the animal shelter which helps the pattern of organization.
This article is about (a summary in your own words) what animal shelter behavior experts do. If the animal is not tame they would train it but if it isn't trainable they would put it down humanely. 
The significance (importance) of this article is that some animals die due to behavior issues.
What I learned from this article is some animals are put down if they weren't trainable.
What I liked about this article is how they put a lot of information on what they do in the animal shelter.
What I did not like about it I don't like how they put down animals if they weren't trainable or tame I would just keep on trying.
Who should read this article and why people who would learn about animal shelters because some people would like to volunteer there. However it should be people not in the group PETA
This article reminds me of my mentally challenged bird who flew away. I chose that because he was hard to train.
(text-to-text) This really doesn't remind me anything related to this article in text form.
(text-to-world) This reminded me of the animals that were put down since the text and animal shelters that put down animals are related.
New vocabulary I learned
I did not learn any new words.
