           While writing papers it is very important to use definitions as you go throughout your paper. This allows the audience to stay on the same page as you and helps them connect to a bigger idea. It would be hard to read a paper that you don't even really know what the word is meaning. There are 2 specific types of definitions that authors use, classical and extended. Classical definitions are the brief "dictionary" definitions of the word and they really just tell you what the word is and maybe what it does. Then there is extended definitions, which is way more in depth than classical. This just helps the audience connect more with a deeper meaning of the words and maybe by some examples and more in depth understanding.

 

             In the recent article I read about a football player from Australia it talks about how this man from Australia and how he came over to play football in the united states. He came to play for the University of Utah and he has now changed the whole face of college football. He made it possible for people from other countries to come and play and make a difference in American football. This relates to sustainability because it is also promoting the equality that comes with the politics of football.
