Choose ten of the following questions and answer them in good, complete, organized paragraphs! I will be expecting clear, thought out answers, with good evidence from the text, your notes, the PowerPoint, and/or the biographies youve read. If you use a biography, make sure you cite it correctly (in-text and works cited entry at the end of the question) so that you avoid plagiarism!  No other outside sources should be used; however, if you use an outside source you DANG sure better cite it correctly (in-text and works cited); otherwise, you will not receive credit for the question.
    Each of the questions you choose to answer is worth 20 points, so make the answer a 20-point answer. 
o    Hint: For every 10 points, there should be at least a paragraph consisting of 10-12 REAL sentences.
o    Every answer should have quotes from the text as evidence of your claims.
    It is YOUR responsibility to submit your complete exam to Turnitin.com before midnight on April 23rd.  Failure to do so will result in a 0 for both Test 2 and 3. You will only have the opportunity to submit it one time, so dont submit part and then try to come back and submit the rest.  This is a one-shot deal.

13.    Both The Snows of Kilimanjaro and A Streetcar Named Desire explore the ideas of manhood or masculinity.  How does each one treat this idea and how does each answer the question of what it takes to be a man?
1.    Situational irony is a mark of the Realism, and it is often found throughout the Modernism and Post-Modernism movements.  An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge, Desirees Baby, and Richard Cory all utilize this literary device to make a mark on their readers.  Discuss the effectiveness of this tool in each of these pieces of literature and how it helps each one fit into its time period An Occurrence at Owl Creek = Realism; Desirees Baby = Modernism; Richard Cory = Post-Modernism
4.    Jack Londons To Build a Fire took a very different view of Nature than most of Robert Frosts poetry.  Choose at least one the Robert Frost poems that we read that might have something in common with Londons view of Nature as a force that is indifferent to mans suffering at best and cruel and destructive at worst.  You might want to look at more than one to give you the two paragraphs
6.    Using flashbacks is a technique that was used in two of our stories this semester, An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge and The Snows of Kilimanjaro.  In two separate paragraphs (one for each story) explore how the flashbacks worked in each story and what the flashback technique added to the story.  Why was it there?
7.    Modernism and Post-Modernism thrived on the idea that things are not at all what they appear. Both A Streetcar Named Desire and Everyday Use contain this theme. Choose one of these pieces and explain how that piece of literature goes about delivering the idea that things are not what they seem and contrast the appearance with the reality.  Make sure you include what you think the author was trying to tell us with this contrast.
8.    Both The Gilded Six-Bits and The Storm address the theme of adultery, and in true Modernism fashion, neither one takes a traditional view of the topic of adultery.  Choose one of these stories and discuss how the story took the topics of adultery and put a Modernist twist on it. (btw Chopin was really a Modernist ahead of her time).
9.    A Wagner Matinee and A Pair of Silk Stockings could both be considered firmly in the Modernism genre.  Both address the idea that we sometimes give up a life we know, only to miss it once its gone.  While this idea/theme has always been around, what makes these two stories so powerful and so Modern.  Who is involved in these stories, and why does the theme make us a little uncomfortable?  In essence, what qualifies them as part of the
10.    Most of what we read this semester consisted of my favorites, but by now, you all know that two of my VERY favorites are Zora Neale Hurston and Booker T. Washington.  Explore what How It Feels to Be Colored Me has in common with Washingtons Atlanta Exposition Address.  What are the common themes and do you think the two would have agreed on how they saw the word why or why not?
14.    A Streetcar Named Desire may embody the themes and ideas of Post-Modernism more than any other single piece of literature weve read.  Focus on two elements of Post-Modernism and make your case that A Streetcar Named Desire is THE Post-Modernist piece of literature to demonstrate those two elements.
15.    The Life You Save May Be Your Own contains grotesque (dishonest, immoral, twisted) characters, Mr. Shiftlet and Mrs. Carter, both.  Choose one of those characters to compare with another grotesque character from a different piece of literature.
