Questions

a) Manorexia is a term that refers to males suffering from the eating disorder, anorexia nervosa. 

b)I have been told to look for signs that young people are obsessed with their weight amid mounting concern of a slimming epidemic.
Recent figures suggest that almost half of young teenage girls are skipping meals in their quest for a perfect body.

c)The earliest warning signs of anorexia (anorexia nervosa) can be very difficult to distinguish from normal eating or dieting behavior. Anorexia symptoms may also be concealed.

d)Certain risk factors developing an eating disorder are specific to men. Men who were teased as children for being overweight and athletes who must maintain a certain weight for enhanced performance are more at risk of developing eating disorder.

Rationale

I wrote a letter about the language and cultural identity or, self-identity, it was written with a serious tone because it is more formal, and hopes to address a friend audience.

 In my letter I tried to use a formal language with phrases like "I need helping hand to deal with paperwork". I tried as well to use a easy-to-understand level of vocabulary with words choices like "experience, dominated, informated, accept".

 Using this elements I feel I reached my purpose of making that my friend will understand all the message that I writed with a particular point that is "the experience of people that are third culture kid".
I chose a letter to do this because I felt that in this way I could best express more my feelings and it is more formal and also I thing that the letter represent very well the topic and the third culture kids.
