DRAFT DUE APRIL 8TH
BEING ABSENT ON THE DAY A PAPER IS DUE
DOES NOT GIVE YOU AN EXTENSION.
APRIL 8TH IS THE ONLY DAY I
WILL ACCEPT DRAFTS
FINAL DRAFT DUE APRIL 15th
- You must use at least 2
outside sources to support your thesis.
- You must use examples from
the texts we have read in class and the outside sources. Papers that do
not quote outside sources or the text will not pass.
- Follow MLA guidelines we
have discussed all semester (Everything from heading to block quotes to
number the pages..everything).
- Works Cited Page
- Never
end a paragraph with a quote.
- Cite
outside sources within in your text; if it appears on your works cited
page it has to be used in the paper (direct quotes or paraphrasing).
- Always
keep in mind: is this quote proving and supporting my thesis? If not, do
not use it!
Pick one of the following topics and be
sure to use TWO RELIEABLE OUTSIDE SOURCES!
The
Road
1) One man they meet on the road says
"There is no God and we are his prophets." What does he mean by this?
Explain the role of God and faith in The
Road. As always, use direct references to the text as your proof.
2) Describe the relationship between the
boy and his father. What do they feel
for each other? How do they maintain their affection for and faith in each
other in such brutal conditions? How do they support each other during the
tougher times of the novel?
3) What does The Road ultimately suggest
about good and evil? What separates the “good guys” from the “bad guys”? How do
we as readers know this?
4) Use the idea that the boy is symbolic
of a religious figure or “the one” and explain how his role changes over the
course of the novel.
