make a comparative argument about three elements these two stories have in common(“Hills Like White Elephants” and “Good People”)

Prompt: (1) make a comparative argument about three elements these two stories have in common. These elements can be related to structure, type of narration and point of view, character, setting, symbolism and figurative language. The elements don NOT have to be similar, but they have to yield a good comparison, even if they are different. (2) describe how each of these 3 elements function in each story. (3) compare and contrast these 3 elements respectively in the two stories. Clearly connect this comparison to your thesis argument and show how your formal analysis and comparison serve as a way to demonstrate your thesis. I have already written my paper, but my prof. sent out an email saying, “I have been making my way through grading Essay 1 and I have to say that I am not very happy with the results. You have to completely revise your essay, thesis statement, essay structure, topic sentences and conclusion.” I am attaching my essay as well as the grading rubric.

Upon learning about Pirzada’s family, why does Lilia throw away the remaining candy, and why does she “not feel like celebrating”?

This week your brief writing assignment will address one of this week’s discussion questions (including your own if you chose to go your own way). The purpose of this is to develop a personal response that builds on the class discussion. Read everyone’s comments carefully and then craft your own. One page double spaced will suffice. 1) Food figures prominently in this story; Lahiri meticulously describes each of the meals they eat (and it makes me hungry every time!). What do you make of all this food? What is its significance and how does it contribute to the story’s larger meaning and effect? 2) How do you interpret the end of the story? Upon learning about Pirzada’s family, why does Lilia throw away the remaining candy, and why does she “not feel like celebrating”? What is the significance of the candy?

Design a comprehensive plan for reducing crime.

All students will submit a final project no later than the last day of the term. The project should focus on a specific type of crime, such as: Urban gang violence; domestic violence; terrorism; heroin use; the manufacture of methamphetamine’s (i.e. “meth labs”); animal abuse; drunk driving; human trafficking; mortgage fraud. (If you have an idea for a different type of crime, write to your professor for approval before proceeding.) Proceed as follows: 1) Conduct a literature review to describe the nature and extent of your selected crime. 2) Analyze your selected crime from the vantage point of the following three paradigms: Classical, positivist, and critical. How would each perspective explain your crime, and how would they suggest addressing it? 3) Of the three paradigms, which do you think provides the best explanation of your crime? Explain your answer. 4) Finally, design a comprehensive plan for reducing crime from your selected paradigm. Be sure to apply specific theories and theoretical concepts in your design. For example, if you select the classical perspective, you might apply routine activities theory, situational crime prevention, and/or broken windows, and so on. Completed papers should be approximately 15-20 pages in length, not counting title page and reference list. All information must be drawn from government reports and/or academic/scholarly/professional books or journals, with a minimum of ten (10) high-quality sources required.
