Additional Instructions for the Composition II C
Test
Write your C
test just as you wrote Paper 4. You need an introductory paragraph ending in a
thesis statement. You need to use the terms we have been working with in class,
and you need detailed support from the source that you are working with. You
need to use parenthetical documentation within your paper as you have been
doing in class, but you will not have the information you need to create a work
cited entry.
Give careful attention
to the central idea and relate the other elements and supporting examples
carefully to it. As with Paper 4, name and support the type of conflict. Name
and support the type of point of view. Use diction for the tone section and
any other language aspect for the language paragraph. For character, focus
on one important characteristic of the protagonist. Relate time and place
to the central idea for setting. I do not care what order you use in discussing
the fiction elements as long as you begin with central idea and begin by supporting
your interpretation of central idea.
Remember that regardless
of the kind of essay you are given for the C test, you are writing
an interpretive aim-analytical mode paper which needs to be objectively written.
