Reading Response RLW and FDouglass–Faustina (update)

Part A:

One thing I learned from “How to read like a writer” is that reading can be difficult sometimes but if you understand what you are reading you will be able to write. The author explains that when you read a book you should see what techniques the reader used. In the text it states that “When you Read Like a Writer (RLW) you work to identify some of the choices the author made so that you can better understand how such choices might arise in your own writing”. (Paragraph 1) this quote means that you should read how they are put together.

Part B:

In paragraph one, “I lived in Master Hugh’s family about seven years. During this time, I succeeded in learning to read write. In accomplishing this I was compelled to resort to various stratagems. I had no regular teacher. My mistress, who had kindly commenced to instruct me, had in compliance with the advice and direction of her husband, not only ceased to instruct, but had set her face against my being instructed by anyone else”. According to Douglass he said he lived with the Maste Hugh’s family for seven years. In order to achieve his goal, he has to learned how to read and write on his own. He had no one to help him. His mistress who begins to help him was advice and direction by her husband who detain her not to help him.

    Read instructions for this HW. It is supposed to be ONE post. YOu can also look at other students posts.

    Good you did it correctly now:

    Part A: Very good explanation of one of the main points from RLW!

    Part B: YOu need to explain exactly what the words in your chosen quote mean. What you wrote is “This quote talks about the experience he has been true, teaching himself and to read write and why his mistress didn’t educate him.” This is not a precise explanation of each sentence. This is not enough explanation. IF the quote you chose has 5 sentences, then your explanation should be 5 sentences, with each of your own sentences putting Douglass’s meaning into your own words.
