In the space provided below, in a 500-word (or more) essay, compare and contrast the characters of Elisa in “The Chrysanthemums” and Harold Krebs in “Soldier’s Home.” Be sure to state your thesis clearly and explicitly. As well, develop your answer thoroughly with carefully expressed explanations, and offer specific details from the text. Please choose either a block or an alternating organizational pattern.   * When citing from the text, remember to use MLA format by stating the author’s last name and page number in parentheses. No outside sources are allowed except for the stories that were posted in Canvas.   * You will have two hours to complete this essay examination.   CHECKLIST FOR WRITING AND REVISING YOUR COMPARISON-CONTRAST PAPER Have I used prewriting to explore ideas for a subject? Have I carefully thought about my purpose? Have I written for the usual general audience? If I am writing for a specific audience, have I made that clear to the reader? Have I limited my subject? Have I established a clear thesis? Do I have enough support for my thesis? Have I compared and contrasted according to a single purpose? Have I been fair with the comparisons and contrasts? Have I followed an established pattern of organization? Have I proofread for grammar, spelling, and mechanics? * Remember:         No first-person pronouns No second-person pronouns No contractions Always use present tense when writing about literature   GOOD LUCK!
