Use one of the following themes and two of the following texts to compose an essay consisting of 5 paragraphs. You may find contrast between your texts (Text A represents X about my theme while Text B represents Z about my theme) or comparison (Text A and B indicate C about my theme). You must use at least one written text in your essay; in other words, you can’t use both films as your two texts, but you can use one film and one book/short story or two books/short stories.
All essays should contain a thesis statement in the first paragraph. The middle paragraphs should prove that thesis with quotes and specific paraphrase from the texts. The final paragraph should function as a conclusion.
All essays should be well-written, with proper sentence structure and grammar. No need for citation, as I will know what you’re quoting from.
