Explain how this quote might be foreshadowing Che’s life.
“I now know, by an almost fatalistic conformity with the facts, that my destiny is to travel, or perhaps it’s better to say that travelling is our destiny, because Alberto feels the same. Still, there are moments when I think with profound longing of those wonderful areas in our south. Perhaps one day, tired of circling the worlds, I’ll return to Argentina and settle in the Andean lakes, and if not indefinitely then at least for a pause while I shift from one understanding of the world to another.”

Photo Analysis: Article
Your edition of The Motorcycle Diaries has provided you with photographs taken by Alberto and Ernesto themselves. You will be creating a newspaper headline and developing an article including an interview with the travelers themselves for ONE of these photos. Each photo provided has a small caption indicating the nature of the photo. Your article should provide insight on the personalities of Ernesto and Alberto as well as explain the photo.
How to Write Up an Interview There are two ways an interview can be written up. One is as a regular news story (either straight or narrative). The other is in a "Question and Answer" ("Q & A") format.
News story style:
1. Choose a Title (HEADLINE) A good title should have something about the topic of the interview. It may also
have a subtitle that includes the name of the person(s) being interviewed (magazine) Summary of the topic (newspaper)
2. Interviewer/author’s name (BYLINE)
Where (geographic locale) info is from (goes in ( ) )
3. 1st Sentence/Paragraph tells the topic under discussion and who is being interviewed.
Write in paragraphs (story style) Use dialogue and identify the speaker(s) (exact quotations and who said them) Be to describe the people interviewed in a way that shows why he/she is a good
source of information Don’t use “I” unless it’s in dialogue from a witness Titles should summarize the entire story generally; the article should add details,
“filling out” the story Format should look similar to what follows: “TITLE”by Your Name, Your Employer(CITY) – The article begins here. You only put in a city, or byline, if the story happened in one specific location/city; otherwise, the first paragraph is indented. If the story does happen in one place, there is no indentation; everything through the first paragraph begins at the margin. When you start the second paragraph, you should indent it. Every paragraph that follows should also be indented.
Q & A style:
Ms. L. Pineda
Date: _______________________________
1. The title usually includes the name of the subject being interviewed, often with a clever twist or an allusion to the main topic(s) the interview will cover.
2. The author usually gets a byline directly beneath the title. 3. The actual interview itself should start with a short introduction that explains to the
reader who is being interviewed, when and where the interview is taking place (to provide context), and what the main topic(s) of the interview will be.
4. The rest of the interview looks very much like a transcript. o If the interviewer represents a specific group or magazine, his or her questions are
usually prefaced with the name of the group or magazine instead of his or her name.
o Alternatively, the interviewer's words can be prefaced with his own name. This could be both first and last name, or just a last name.
o The subject's name precedes her responses. As with the interviewer, this could be both first and last name, or just a last name.
o Frequently, after the first question and answer, the identifiers are abbreviated to initials.
5. Sometimes, a question or answer may be preceded by a context clue that will help the audience understand that there is more meaning going on than just the words themselves. Sometimes called a "parenthetical", these notes are usually in brackets (sometimes parentheses); they usually appear right after the speaker's name, although they can go in the middle of a question or answer if that is where the notation belongs.
6. The interview usually concludes with a question designed to provide an answer that gives closure to the overall interview.
