To successfully complete this exercise, you must thoroughly answer each question—that is, “I don’t know” or “nothing” or “none” answers will not suffice. Good critical readers always find something to address.

For the first three questions, write 50-100 words. For the fourth activity, you must define at least five words to receive full credit. If you think you know all the words, look up a few–were you right? You may also look up people’s names, concepts, etc.

Title of Chapter:

1. What is the reading about? Write a 2 – 3 sentence summary of the chapter. Also provide two specific examples from the text to support your claim. Paraphrase or directly quote your examples and cite them in MLA format to the best of your ability.

1. What do you find most interesting or surprising about the reading? What does the text have to do with you personally and with your life (past, present or future)? It is not acceptable to write that the text has NOTHING to do with you, since just about everything humans can write has to do in some way with every other human. Provide specific examples (quotes or paraphrases) from the text in your response.

1. What do you find most challenging or problematic about the reading? How much does the text agree or clash with your view of the world, and what you consider right and wrong? Use several quotes as examples of how it agrees with and supports what you think about the world, about right and wrong, and about what you think it is to be human. Use quotes and examples to discuss how the text disagrees with what you think about the world and about right and wrong. How well does it address things that you, personally, care about and consider important to the world? How does it address things that are important to your family, your community, your ethnic group, to people of your economic or social class or background, or your faith tradition? If not, who does the text serve? Use quotes to illustrate. NOTE: you need not answer all of the prompts for this particular question as long as your response is thorough.
