3. What is the most well-developed part of your essay? Explain why its so fantastic.
I think that the most well-developed part of my essay is the first body paragraph. It
contains what I think is an example from the book that supports my point well, and also a
somewhat good deal of research that also supports my point. I feel like I explained my point very
well in this paragraph compared to the other two body paragraphs.
5. Why should the reader believe what you have to say? What makes you reliable?
I think the reader should believe what I have to say because my point is strong and important.
What I have to say in this essay is reliable because it is supported by additional research and
examples from the book. What makes me (as the person who wrote the essay) reliable is that I
am not biased about the point in any way. There isn't a single side that I am necessarily a part of,
so none of the information makes the other side of the point seem completely false.
6. How does your conclusion tie up your main ideas? How does it leave the reader thinking?
My conclusion ties up my main ideas my restating my thesis and each of the specific points I
made. The conclusion leaves the reader thinking by introducing some new information, along
with some of my own thoughts about what Fitzgerald's purpose of writing a satire was.
