Part B: Higher Thinking / Development paragraph

The question will be pertaining one of the themes in the novel Cue for Treason.

Answer as completely as possible with as much critical thinking as possible. By this I mean that you must refer to how it was during the Elizabethan Era with regards to the subject, and how that subject is treated today.

Part C: Text Analysis

You will be asked to read an excerpt (part of) a story. You will be asked to write a character analysis (character sketch) of a character from the first-sight story.

You now know how to write a character sketch (your latest summative evaluation), so you shouldn’t have a problem with this task. Remember to prove your points by giving examples from the text. (Remember: 3 character traits, 2 proofs for each character trait).Use plagiarism in a Sentence

Part D: Creative writing

You must write an ending to a first-sight text.

The criteria:

Must becontinued in the same verb tense as the story.
Must continue with the same characters and finish it with as much

fantasy and originality as possible.

GOOD LUCK AND PREPARE YOURSELF!
