2 1/2 pgs

In a well-written, proofed report that is at least 2 ½-typewritten pages in length, you should
summarize the chapter of the book you have been assigned. Your summary should be written
as though you are explaining the ideas in the chapter to someone who has never read it.
You should select one quote or passage from the chapter that is especially illustrative of the
chapter as a whole. That quote should be included in your paper. However, instead of writing
out the full quote verbatim, you should merely indicate the page number of the quote and
provide the first 4 and last 4 words with an ellipsis in-between. [An example of what this would
like is the following: Berger writes on p. 2: “One of these days … the occupations just
mentioned.”]
Any technical definitions from the chapter should be explained in your own words. You should
avoid paraphrasing the chapter. That is, you need to avoid a summary that merely itemizes the
contents of the chapter. In other words, I do not want an essay that merely states: “On the first
page, Berger discusses ______. One the next page he talks about _____.” You should explain
and expound upon the ideas in the chapter, and your paper should be written as a seamless
whole. That is, it should therefore hang-together as a cohesive, coherent summary that explains
the content of the chapter.
Finally, you should write two quiz questions related to the chapter. Those quiz questions should
be short, essay-style questions that would require 3-5 sentence responses. You should also
provide an answer key.
