complete “Activity: Annotating a Passage”

Note: a summary does not contain your opinion of the essay you are summarizing.

3.Then write an analysis of the text. But analyze the text for how the writer presents his case, not for what he says.

4.Before writing your first draft, analyze the text using the questions in the “Writing Strategies Checklist” on p. 29. BUT – your essay should NOT consist of answers to those questions in the order of the questions. Instead, you would organize it based on what elements actually are prominent in this text.
Length of analysis: 250 words. ( I have attached the questions with the David Brooks essay)

5.Finally, write a description of the kinds of annotations you made, how many times you read the passage to make annotations, and if you found it helpful to make annotations in preparation to summarizing and analyzing the text.

I. A summary of the Brooks excerpt.
II. An analysis of the Brooks writing.
III. A description of the annotations you made.
