Hi,

Forgot about chapter three discussion questions, just make sure you've read it and can answer a pop quiz if necessary.

Regarding chapter four: Take a look at pages 72-73. There are three sample essays. Answer the following questions in the "comments" link below (make sure you are logged into blogger, or if you post anonymously and want credit, put your name somewhere)

1. How would you describe differences in the length and complexity of sentences, in the level of vocabulary, and in the degree of complexity of each sample essay?

2. Based on differences in style, who is the intended audience for each piece?

3. Which of these samples seems most convincing or authoritative to you, and why?

Please respond to this entry before class on Wednesday.
