3. Now pick one of the three you wrote about in the previous question. In a short paragraph of approximately 250 words, tell me more about this particular fact, story, or situation. In this response, you must incorporate one quotation from the reading with the correct in-text citation. At least 80% of the rest of your paragraph should be your own thoughts and ideas about the topic you are writing on or the quotation. Do not summarize or paraphrase from the reading. Rather, use this space to reflect or expand on what you are writing about with your own ideas. Do not just repeat the author’s ideas. I cannot stress this enough. I am interested in your ideas. Worth 40 points.
