2. Summarize the essay in less than 100 words.
3. Represent 3 places in the text that you agree or disagree with. You'll need first to quote or paraphrase and include an in-text citation. Then you can explain why you agree or disagree. You can also explain why you think the author is framing the argument in a way that does or does not make sense.
4. Identify a place in the text that increased or decreased the trust that you had in the author.
