PLEASE NOTE: You will type and print this assignment, but you need to save it somewhere you can access it again because you will also rewrite it and may even choose to enter it into a contest!

Before class on Thursday, complete Practice 8 on past unreal (untrue) conditionals on page 204 of your grammar workbook.

Before 10pm on Wednesday, respond to this post answering these three questions:

1. Why do people lie?
2. How would society be different if no one ever lied? Would this be a good or bad thing overall? Why?
3. What are some clues that help you tell when someone is lying? Do you think you’re good at being able to tell when someone is lying to you? Why or why not?

Number your answers when you comment.

Before class on Thursday, respond to one of your classmate’s comments. Tell them what you agree with and why or respectfully disagree with them and explain your position. Alternatively, you could expand on one of their points and share your own experience. Both your comment and your reply to a classmate’s comment should be well though out, in good English with your best spelling and grammar, and consist of several sentences.

This counts as a homework grade. Follow all directions and do your best work to get full credit.
