In the poem "The Names" by Billy Collins the text is structured in chronological order as he lists all the names (A-Z) of those who were victims of 9/11. The author used chronological order so that he could name those who were killed by the alphabet. "I started with A, with Ackerman, as it happened," The authors purpose was to remember those who were harmed during 9/11 and he could do so by writing them in chronological order. "Names written in the air." This showed he author was reminded of those who lost their lives regardless of where he was. The tone was sad as he remembered that awful thing that had happened to all those victims, all those names. "So many names, there is barely room on the walls of the heart." The tone connects to the authors purpose because its sad remembering all those victims of 9/11 and what happened to them.

In the poem "We Breathed You In" by Patti Tana the text structure is description because the author is describing what had happened to the people and how they must have been afraid and how everybody feels sorrow for them. The author used description so that she could describe how it must have been that day for the victims and for those who were bystanders. "the day you burned you fell you flew through new york air." The author is describing what had happened. The text structure connects with the authors purpose because the authors purpose is that everybody feels the pain of those who lost everything on 9/11 and by describing what had happened to the victims it reminds people of the pain. "your love your life became our life" The tone is sad, again, because its hard thinking about what had happened to hundreds of people that day. The tone connects to the text purpose because the tone is sad while its describing the sadness and pain of 9/11.

In the article "Hijacked Jets Destroy Twin Towers and Hit Pentagon" by Serge  Schmemann the text structure is chronological sequence because it is describing the events that had happened on 9/11 in order. The author chose this structure because his purpose is to inform the readers what had happened and chronological structure described what had happened in order. "Hijackers rammed jetliners into each of New York's World Trade towers yesterday, toppling both in a hellish storm of  ash, glass, smoke and leaping victims, while a third jetliner crashed into the Pentagon in Virginia." This is informing what had happened but still explaining it in order. The tone is upsetting in this article because it uses words such as "hellish." The tone connects with the text purpose because the text purpose is describing what had happened in order and the tone is upsetting and so is what is being said in the structure of the text.
