They Say, I Say, Chapter 2 | Coursehero Helper
I dont understand this English question and need help to study.
This assignment is based on They Say, I Say, Chapter 2, “Her Point Is,” pp. 30-42.
Read the following article, which was published in The New York Times newspaper, May 19, 2019 and written by Miriam Pawel. Write an effective summary of the article, 250-350 words.
If you want to take notes, a printable version of the article is HERE
The points (10 available) will be based on the clarity and accuracy of your summary, as well as how effectively your summary accomplishes the following (as explained in They Say, I Say):
- The reader shouldn’t be able to detect whether or not you agree with the article!
- At the same time, the summary should focus on what you believe are the most important points of the article. (Avoid writing a “list” summary.”
- Use signal words that fit the language of the article. Avoid repetitious use of “she says,” or you will lose significant points.
Finally, make sure your summary is tightly organized, written in complete sentences and uses precise word choice.
