Connecting 2 Authors
Read the quotations below and find a common thread between them:
1.What philosophies of life do the quotations contain? How do they compare? Are they compatible?
2. Pick just one pair: one quotation from Mairs and one from Tolentino.
3. Define the connection between them. What do these two quotation say about a particular topic/concept?
4. Then, work on a paragraph that connects both quotations to make a larger original (=your) claim. Start in the middle (from inside out, so to speak), by connecting the quotations, creating strong IQCDC for both. Then make sure that you write a topic sentence that reflects your original claim based on both quotations.
