What could the passage mean to different people?
Could words be replaced to clarify the meaning and make the entire passage more effective?
Jump in and comment on other students’ paragraph selection and see if you can provide a reading that is different from the meanings they suggest.
To conclude this week’s discussion, think about the following question: “Is it better to have the right word or the right meaning?” Provide a response that explains your thoughts on this question.
