Response to Murphy Paul Article:  Here are the requirements: Each term in bold should be addressed in your essay. To be clear, I literally want to see the terms in your essay. Refer to the Critical Analysis Questions below. Your essay must be written in MLA format. Your essay should be written in the present tense, with 3rd person point of view. This means avoiding pronouns such as I, me, my, we, our, us, you, your, and yours. You must include in-text citations after borrowed information and  a Work Cited page (–50 if either is missing). The article was retrieved from: https://ideas.time.com/2013/06/03/why-we-should-read-literature/Links to an external site.. The author, publication date, etc., are listed on the article. Use OWL at Purdue to format the Work Cited entry: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/mla_style/mla_formatting_and_style_guide/mla_works_cited_page_basic_format.htmlLinks to an external site. Word count should be no less than 600 words. That would come out to (approximately) 1 ½ typed pages. Never include the headers, title, or Works Cited page in your word count. There should be an introduction, conclusion, and body paragraphs. The number of body paragraphs will depend on how you organize your paper. Your thesis statement should be the last sentence in your introduction. It should be specific and, in one sentence, address what your entire essay is about. Remember that you are focusing on how Murphy Paul creates her message, not necessarily the message itself and/or whether you agree or disagree. Do not use AI to revise the essay.
