2. Both Witness to the Tragedy" and "Hope Survives in Search for Katrina's Missing' provide first person

English

"Witness to the Tragedy" is a first-person account of the destruction that Hurricane Katrina caused in certain places, shortly after its passage and how people are living in the rubble and flooding while waiting for help. The account is very distressing, because it shows people trapped in their homes, swimming in an attempt to save themselves, as well as the situation of animals and the nature of the attacked place.

"Hope Survives in Search for Katrina's Missing", while also being a first-person account, presents a different account. In this text we present the search for people who were missing after the passage of Hurricane Katrina. This search has been going on for many years and although it shows people anguished for not knowing if their missing loved ones are well, it is a report that causes less anxiety in the reader, because it does not present people at serious risk of life, with chances of drowning or being stuck in rubble.
