Dear All:
Sorry I was grumpy and dizzy today. I "woke up on the wrong side of the bed," as they say. Anyway, to help you out a bit I'm giving you some ideas of stuff to practice for the mid-term:
We reviewed four types of texts, but I really want you to be able to distinguish between three of them:
-Nonfiction Stories
-Persuasive Essays
-Informational Articles
How do these differ? Which are factual, and which are opinionated? Which tell stories, and which just convey information? In which one does the author tend to have a point?
Speaking of fact and opinion, what is the difference? What is a "false fact?" Is "I love Indonesia" a fact or an opinion? What about "The Earth is flat?"
There are two modifiers in the sentence, "The motorcycle mirror was broken because I hit the ramp crooked." One modifies a noun, and the other a verb. Which words are the modifiers, and what words do they modify?
Be ready to do a small reading and answer multiple questions about it!
Lastly, be ready for a 1-star logic puzzle, like the ones you've completed before. Make sure you know how to define "mutual exclusivity," how to graph and cross-hatch, and how to process list and ordinal clues!
Hope that helps. If you still have questions, just leave a comment!
