Analysing  travel literatures will equip us to understand the conventions  of travel writing .To learn a bit about the history of the genre , question why people wants to travel and investigate what it means to be a tourist and the impact of tourism on places in the world . Analysis of  travel literature also will allow us to investigate the overlap between language and literature that  exists in the wide and varied genre of travel writing .

“ Where to find warriors queens , fairies and castles in Scotland” an example of travel literature  and a mythical Scottish literature  by  Connor Mcgovern  which is  about  the writers’ journey to Scotland  and how he find the setting of  the warrior queens , fairies and castles in   that place .

Works of literature feature innumerable figures of speech that are used as literary devices  .  In this literature the author made use of imagery  to  activate the readers  mind to imagine than place where he is  . It is actually an effective method to get the readers attention not just to read but to actively incorporate their imagination to the place being described . These can actually add meaning to literature and showcase the power and beauty of the nature . Example  from the literature “  Shaped like raven’s wings  spreading into the sea of Herbrides..”. The writer also used a lot of emotional words and long paragraph to share his journey while travelling . It is very clear that when the writer travelled he was able to know histories of the places  and the reasons why those certain places were chosen to be the setting  of the queens and fairies in that place.  A clear statement that  proves this was when Duncan said to the traveler  “ I can’t imagine being anywhere else now,. I like being up here out of the way – I hear all the gossip from Elgo without having to be there”.

Out of the travelers journey to the home of the fairies queens and castles . He was able to describe each of the place that composes his journey . He described  Skye –the theatre of natural  drama , where legends like Scathach’s  have played out of century . He said , it’s a suitable place for tales of warriors and witches , given the brooding mountains , moorland , tumbling waterfalls ,and  loch-frayed coasts that hint at a violent , element past . He also give a detailed background of the weather in Scotland  . The traveller described it as dramatic as landscapes  , changing  at a moment’s notice like the whims of  a God . As to observe , the writer doesn’t  simply described the place , rather he made use of comparative statements . Also , description  of the places was less emphasized  on the picturesque and sublime , rather it gives more focus on the historical background of the place .

Aside from  the description of the places stated by the traveler  , he also give a greater detail in the lives of the people. He describe them by their possessions.  Example from the article “ One person who is well –versed is Skye’s landscapes is Scott Mackenzie , the gamekeeper at the 23 , 000 acre Eilean Iarmain . The way the author gives description focus on the historical background just like he describe places . I believe that these are credited largely to one factor , the writings medium influences what is being stressed as the purpose of the writer .

Aside from giving detailed descriptions for the places and the people , the author also incorporated the dialogues he was able to encounter in his travel . Like their dialogue between the tour guide ,the people in that place that he met on his way. Dialogue in reality can also help  charge scenes with emotion , heightening tension between characters and provides exposition while sounding natural and lifelike to readers .

The author also incorporated images and photos in the article . This includes the image  of the Old Man Storr on the Trotternish peninsula of Skye , a dramatic rock .Also , the image of Skye’s largest township . Images and photos actually evoke the readers emotion as what the writers wanted them to feel . Also pictures in a travel literary will bring you to place being described in that piece, though you did not literary step-in to that place but out of imagination you are in that place .

In addition to the content, the style of the article resembles a one-sided argumentative essay, ‘arguing’ about the pros of travelling. The paragraph starts with a topic sentence, then the writer’s elaboration on the sentence. For example, ‘(Travelling) shows us the sights and values that we might ordinarily ignore. Travelling consists not only in seeing new places but in seeing with new eyes”.

The Coronavirus pandemic that had caused severe impacts in our economy. Moreover , it cannot be only assessed in economic terms . It  has also devastatingly affected the mortality and fatality rate  across all nations.

What are the possible causes of  pandemic ? Looking back to the history of this current virus , Corona, the spread rate continuously rise due to  travel and trade , weak immune system , returning OFW’s,  globalization ,over -populated cities  . Thus ,   spread of virus is highly observed in an open economy .   In a study , any infectious diseases leading to pandemics are caused by zoonotic pathogens that were transmitted to humans due to increased contacts with animals through breeding, hunting and global trade activities .Additionally, priority  is given to the profit while there is negligence to the people’s need .  Pandemic is a recurring event in the world  and this could be controlled   if only  authorities put priority to the needs  of majority .Pandemic could be prevented to some extent  if medical companies should have started developing  vaccines for viruses .

Thereafter , pandemic has an impact in  the economy , it has affected mental health and has  a social impact .  In the economic sector , pandemic can result to increase in expenditure , decline in  tax revenues and economic downfall .

Pandemic is disastrous as it could be .There is no way to escape viruses . But  prevention of viruses starts from within . Our action , our behaviour and our attitude towards it can prevent the transmission . Simply , boosting our immune system is  one way to prevent  being infected .  By just simply giving priority  to the needs of the people in times of pandemic , we can get easily overcome it .

The graph   shows the mortality rate in all age group,  from ages 0-70 +  years old  among the population of the Philippines in the year 2013 .   Obviously,  The graph is very transparent in over all rate of mortality in specific  ages . The purpose of this report is  to relatively study  the  simple patterns of changes in mortality rates in different age groups during the transition from high to low mortality levels .

In the graph , it is very clear that in the Philippines ,  it is the old ages that claim the most number of deaths. The very high mortality rate  is   from ages  70 and above  at about 73 %  rate .  This are perhaps due to low level of ability and capacity to live .

Moreover , the rate of mortality among the ages 1 and below is also high at about 12 % . Very young ones also claim the most of the deaths of the year  especially those during the formative stage which extends from a  a few month before birth .

To conclude , the rate of mortality increases as age increases. Leveling up of mortality rate at very early -old ages is faster . This expresses that ageing corresponds to a progressive decline in the physical and mental ability of a person leading to high mortality rate as age increases .
