Directions:
Select one question from each chapter and respond thoroughly and specifically. Include the question with your response. Use MLA formatting standards to document research. MLA requires parenthetical in-text citations whenever published (that includes the Internet) information is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized. I'm looking for thorough responses (more than a single sentence) that provide clear explanations and specific examples.
