AP SEMINAR

 1. " In this season of giving, (metacommentary) six of John Carroll’s IND transfers donned their old uniforms and returned to their former school to continue a special Thanksgiving tradition. At the invitation of IND’s Alumnae Association,  Caitlin Kuhn ‘21 ,  Grace Hemphill ’2 1 ,  Brandi Swinton ‘21 ,  Lauren Milbourne ’22 ,  Rhyian Singleton ‘22  and  Breanne Swinton ‘23  helped to distribute 80 “Hildie’s Thanksgiving boxes,” stuffed with a turkey and a week’s worth of groceries, to the residents of nearby Latrobe homes. Named for Sr. [Hilda Marie Sutherland, a mainstay at the school for 65 years before her passing last year, the Thanksgiving boxes were the longest standing tradition of her “Hildie’s Helpers” service club] elab . We are proud of these Patriots whose service showed what it means to “live like Hildie” and carry forth her selfless love. Thanks to Mrs. Hemphill for sharing the news with us and to Sue Petti, President of ...

 1a. Examples in the chapter show that translating academic language into everydayspeak can be a good tool for spelling out ideas to readers. But at a basic level, such translation can be a basic means for you as a writer to prove your thoughts to yourself. Translating academicspeak into everyday speak can be a tool to help say what to begin with. 1b. As the examples in the present chapter have informed, translating academic language into everydayspeak could be an indispensable tool for clarifying and underscoring ideas for consumers. Therefore at an even more simple level of understanding, such translation can be an indispensable means for you as a writer to clarify your own ideas to oneself. In separate means, translating acadmeicspeak into everydayspeak can serve as a processing mechanic that enables you to discover what you are trying to claim to commence with. 1c. As the examples in this chapter show, translating academic language into everydayspeak can be a necessary tool in ...

 1.     - transitions(underline)          - keywords(circle)           - pointing terms(boxes) Our civilisation . . . is founded on coal , more completely than one realises until one stops to think about it. The machines that keep us alive, and the machines that make the machines , are all directly or indirectly dependent upon coal . In the metabolism of the Western world the coal-miner is second in importance only to the man who ploughs the soil. He is a sort of grimy cary- atid upon whose shoulders nearly everything that is not grimy is supported. For this reason the actual process by which coal is extracted is well worth watching, if you get the chance and are willing to take the trouble. When you go down a coal-mine it is important to try and get to the coal face when the “fillers” are at work. This is not easy, because when the mine is working visitors are a nuisance and are not encouraged, but if you...

 1. After reading a few articles, I have concluded that most of the articles used "who cares" questions as they were an important part in setting their arguments. Compared to the ones who used "who cares" questions, the articles I read that didn't use them were a little hard to keep interested in and some of their main points were left unexplained. The authors who used the questions mostly just stated why their argument and claims actually mattered to what is happening in the real world today or how it can affect people's lives. One technique I could use for my own essays is to demonstrate why my claims should be important to the readers. What I would suggest to the authors of the articles that "who cares" questions is to try to least point out why their arguments are relevant. 2. For this exercise, I will use my essay about single-sex schooling as an example. For this essay, I do not think I did a good job at stating the "who cares" ques...

 1. Charlip first uses a signal phrase by using a quote from a different source, which we can only assume is an opposing article because then she state s "If only that were true, things might be more simple". This statement is important because it shows how she believes that perspective is too simplified and inaccurate. Charlip uses the personal pronoun "I" a lot to state that it is her point of view, and when addressing a professor she first implies that he will give his opinion and then states, using "he", what he said. She then states how he would person ally define the topic and ask questions directly to the audience. Like in this chapter, Charlip uses a template with a quote to restate her point: " The average American will tell you he or she is “middle class"." She also addresses her father's opinion, as they had the same one. 2. For this example, I used my essay about how single-sex schools are better than coeducational schools. I...
