Active Reading HW 1

Hello!

We discussed in class the importance of being familiar with the style and skill of newspaper journalists and columnists in conveying their opinions to their readers. Our job in close reading is to identify and summarise their ideas and opinions, to show how those ideas and opinions create certain effects on the readers, and to say how well the writer creates effects on us.

This week we are simply looking at the understanding element (U) – to identify and summarise the writer’s ideas and opinions. You have to be able to do this in your own words.

Using the attached passage, write down why you think the writer created this article, and for each paragraph summarise the point or opinion he is expressing.

Any questions, ask on here or in class. Homework due Tuesday 9th October.
