Let's check on the rhetorical situation here:
Genre: summary/response essay which is very similar to a book or movie review.
Audience: someone who has NOT read the original (so they would not need to). This is an artificial requirement; many of your readers WILL have read the article, but you are writing as though we had not.
Purpose: to provide a clear, unbiased account of the article, and then share your reaction to it.
Homework:
1. Reread your article and work on revising your draft. The second draft is due on Tuesday.
2. I'll be checking journals next week also. You'll need at least twenty vocabulary words plus assigned work (see past entries of this blog.)
