County attorney (with the gallantry of a young politician). and yet, for all their worries, what would we do without the ladies? (the women do not unbend. he goes to the sink, takes dipperful of water from the pail and, pouring it into a basin, washes his hands. starts to wipe them on the roller towel, turns it for a cleaner place.) dirty towels! (kicks his foot against the pans under the sink.) not much of a housekeeper, would you say, ladies? mrs. hale (stiffly). there’s a great deal of work to be done on a farm. what is one possible disadvantage of hearing the characters’ voices as opposed to silently reading the scene? readers are unable to envision for themselves the setting of the room in which the county attorney and mrs. hale are talking. readers are unable to visualize for themselves the movements of the county attorney and mrs. hale. readers are unable to make inferences for themselves about the emotions and motivations of the county attorney and mrs. hale. readers are unable to create their own voices for how the county attorney and mrs. hale might sound.

An expository essay instructs, provides information, or explains. in this essay, you are presenting information and explaining why you think the ideas and work of the individual you chose had an effect on european thought. but before you begin writing the essay, you need to organize the information you’ve gathered by creating an outline. directions: your taking notes sheet should have you identify and organize the information you found while doing your research. now it is time to create an outline to organize the information in the way you will present it in your essay. you may decide not to use all the information you gathered, but be sure you do not leave out anything that you believe is important to support your thesis. your essay should include an introductory paragraph, supporting paragraphs, and a concluding paragraph. each paragraph should cover one main topic and should correspond to a roman numeral (i., ii., iii.) on the outline. the main topics should cover: the person’s accomplishment and contributions, and the effect of his or her accomplishments or contributions on european thought. write a topic sentence for each paragraph of your essay. be sure it tells the reader what the section will be about and how the information relates to your thesis statement. your topic sentence for the introductory paragraph might say something like “johannes gutenberg’s invention changed the way people communicated.” a topic sentence for the second paragraph—the first main topic—might be something like "gutenberg’s printing press changed the way books were produced and the way knowledge was communicated.” decide which pieces of information you will use to support your topic sentences. (these ideas or groups of facts are called subtopics.) subtopics follow capital letters and periods (a., b., and c.) on your outline. add this information beneath your topic sentence. you can further divide subtopics into specific facts. in an outline, specific facts follow arabic numerals and periods (1. 2. 3. 4.) end your outline and essay with a concluding paragraph. write a concluding paragraph that summarizes the main ideas of your essay and restates your thesis statement in some way. write no more than four or five sentences. worth 241 points
