I have a summary paper to do that is suppose to be 8-10 pages. The problem that I am having is where to get started. This is what the teacher want us to do.

Question

Relate your life in work, social responsibility, and/or individual responsibility to a literary work. What themes do you see in both? What shared experience can you discuss, and what meaning is there to them that can be applied to society at large?

It does not say if it has to be something we read for class or anything and my teacher has not emailed me back yet and this is due tonight by midnight so I really need help to get started and it is worth 450 points.

Answer 1

Think of something you've read, whether for class or not, that you identified with, or even thought, "I understand this. I felt like this when ... "

There may be two or three things you've read that could fit. What are they?

Answer 2

That is kind of hard for me to do. Because I really only read urban fiction books unless it is something for school and once I read it and do the work I do not remember nothing about it because that is not what I am interested in reading.

Answer 3

Well, I suggest you go back over your reading list and find one. There's no way around this assignment, you know!

When you go over your reading list, put each title in quotation marks and then into www.google.com -- and read any summaries you find to help you remember what the story was about.

Let us know when you come up with at least one.

Answer 4

The Use of Force is one that I remember a little bit about.

This one?

Start doing some brainstorming by writing nonstop for about 10 minutes. Start with this sentence (or something similar):

When I first began to read this story, I could really identify with ...

Answer 6

Yes that is the one.
