Problem
Identify the passage and describe its significance for the text in which it appears. You might connect the text to its historical moment, identify philosophical strains within the text, compare it to other texts, explain its significance to the plot or themes or characters or simply ramble on until you think you've written enough. You'll get 1 point each for identifying the text and the author correctly and up to three points for your description of its significance.
Wash the white clothes on Monday and put them on the stone heap; wash the color clothes on Tuesday and put them on the clothesline to dry; don't walk barehead in the hot sun; cook pumpkin fritters in very hot sweet oil; soak your little cloths right after you take them off; when buying cotton to make yourself a nice blouse, be sure that it doesn't have gum on it, because that way it won't hold up well after a wash; soak salt fish overnight before you cook it; is it true that you sing benna in Sunday school?; always eat your food in such a way that it won't turn someone else's stomach; on Sundays try to walk like a lady and not like the slut you are so bent on becoming; don't sing benna in Sunday school; you mustn't speak to wharf-rat boys, not even to give directions; don't eat fruits on the street-flies will follow you; but I don't sing benna on Sundays at all and never in Sunday school.
