You will answer all ten questions. Please take your time when answering. Your answer WILL BE TWO paragraphs in length, summarizing your knowledge of the issue in a concise, logical manner (points will be taken off if it is under this!!!) Watch your grammar and spelling. You can use the text as a SECONDARY source to back up your answer. It cannot be your full answer. What I mean is you can use the notes, the text and such as a guide. For example, the first four sentences will be your answer. The last four would be the quote backing up your answer. Also, cite that quote. I need to know you understand the material, not what others are saying.
