American Soldier

 2
A.The most powerful image was the photo when he comes back home from iraq, because you can see how happy he is to be back and to see his family, and you can see how happy the parents are to see their son, and nothing bad happened to him
B. The most powerful sequence of photos was the one of coming back from Iraq, because his family is really glad to have him back, and you can see that by all of the picture of them doing all of this fun stuff together, and his girlfriend is happy to have him back, because there are pictures of them having fun together.
C.These photos work together, by being in different sequences, like from the start when he was signing up, the he goes to Iraq, the hes training, and he gets his first mission, and it keeps going until he goes back home with his family.
3.
A. the verbs ar written in past tense
B.The captions enhance the photographs by telling us whats in the picture, and what he was doing, and thinking, or saying.
4.
a. Ian is tearing up a picture of his girlfriend, because he keeps thinking about her, and it makes him sad, in  his room.
Ian is getting off the plane from iraq, and he is very happy to see his family, after all of the time he over there.
Ian is getting his head shaved, and it took the barber, less than a minute to shave Ian's head.
5.A. the videos enhance the photos, by us knowing how he feels to be over there, by his voice, or his feelings, that he has in the pictures.
B.videos are better than photographs, because you can see the people move, and you can hear them, and how they feel,like when he was signing up in the picture, you don't know how he feel about it, and in the video he tells you how it felt, and how it felt for the parents.
c.photos are better than videos, because its like you are stuck in time, and sometimes some photos can have different effects, and sometimes you know how the people feel by just looking at the photo, instead of watching,like in the photo with his mother crying, you can tell that she is very sad, and she doesnt want him to go.
