1st/2nd APLang/ENG 1101

**HW DUE COMPLETED IN CLASS WED. 10/27: 

1) FIRST, CAREFULLY READ James Boswell's BACKGROUND and his *POWERFULLY-ENTERTAINING (*yet no-less important!) 18th century essay 

"On War" [from the WAR PACKET PART II/SUPPLEMENTAL section of binder] 
  • THEN ANSWER the written qu's marked w/*'s at the end of the text
  • FINALLY, ANSWER the x9 MULTIPLE CHOICE Qu's at the end of the text/last page
    • IMPORTANT!! This will be your first 'crack' at AP LANG EXAM-STYLE MChoice QU's, so it's a low-pressure situation...AS LONG AS YOU COMPLETE THEM AND DO YOUR BEST! The best way to get better at these is through effort and practice, which we're starting now
    • we will check these practice MChoice qu's together to see how many you get correct, so BE HONEST; your score for this first one is just so we can get our 'sea legs' with MChoice practice, just do your best

******************
**FINAL NOTES: these questions/answers and your UPCOMING GRADED CLASS DISCUSSION RE: THESE SHORT YET SIGNIFICANT RHETORICAL ANALYSIS ASSIGNMENTS are for YOUR benefit
i.e., LIKE ANYTHING IN LIFE, YOU GET OUT OF THEM WHAT YOU PUT INTO THEM.

**You may WRITE/ANNOTATE your [COMPLETE/THOROUGH] answers in the margins of each sheet of the packet OR THE BACK, write your answers on a separate sheet.  Whatever you do, BE PROACTIVE and DELIBERATE with your work!!

***NOTE: those of you who HAVE NOT added comments to discussion(s) in the last 2-3 classes, please be ready to volunteer WEDNESDAY!!! **REMEMBER: DISCUSSION is a TREMENDOUS PART OF THIS COURSE!
