    1. I think the result I found most surprising was the fill-in, “And he gave ___ written word ‘skunk’…” The correct answer was “the.” Even though 77 students gave the correct response, there were still several who used random words such as “garbage,” “things,” and “fishy.” These words do not even come close to fitting the sentence being that they are all form class words. A second point of interest is the fact that no one was able to come up with the correct word for “prolific.” That is the only…

This seems to me to be like an explanatory piece overall because you don’t provide much evidence to support your proposition. You explain the background of your argument, but you don’t explain why the debate about Cleopatra’s race has relevance and why it should continue. This is…
