You are proving a close reading and understanding of the book. Your focus on the exam is on Hong and her views. The goal is to prove you read the book and to give thoughtful, thorough responses that prove a close reading. Defend your answers by using examples and quotes from the book only.
Each of your two answers should be approximately 500 – 700 words. Write more if you wish. Each answer should read like a brief essay. Use your best grammar and writing. Begin with a topic sentence and remember to use proper academic signal words when quoting and summarizing.
Whatever question you choose make sure to prove a close reading by using examples and quotes as needed. You can use answers from the specific chapter and elsewhere in the book
assignment:
In Chapter United
Hong states, “For many immigrants, if you move here with trauma, you’re going to do what it takes to get by.” (see page 34) What led her to make this statement? What point is she making? Use a second statement the author makes (or more) and examples when defending your answer. FYI: Hong is not an immigrant. She was born in Los Angeles. It’s pointless to use her an example. Also: If you write about Dao, aim to connect his negative behavior to the trauma he experienced.
In Chapter Standup
Hong offers her views on the LA riots. What is her overall argument? Defend your position by using at least 1 quote from the chapter and any important examples.
It is clear that the student understands the reading and the author’s view. The student uses quotes and examples to defend his/her/their response. The student goes above and beyond and offers examples from outside of the assigned chapter.
The student has edited her/their/his responses and uses signal words when quoting and summarizing. The student avoids “you” for each question. It is clear that the student knows how to frame quotes use They Say templates and transitional words. <
