The Background Information
After finishing a unit studying Hamlet, Abby Cornish wants to take her Literature students see a production of The Lion King, but she has hastily written an email to the theater manager that lacks some needed information and the appropriate diplomacy and courtesy.

The Email
I would like to arrange for a group of high school students from my Literature course to attend a performance of The Lion King. Do you have a group block of seats available for either October 5th or 8th? Also, do you still offer the 20% group discount? Do you do backstage tours, because I would like for my group to take a tour after the show. I need a response from you by Friday so I can make the necessary plans.

Thank you,
Abby Cornish

Her Goals
She would like to obtain 25 tickets for a matinee showing on one of two dates in October (the 5th or 8th).
She would like to obtain the tickets at the 20% off group rate that the theater has previously advertised.
She would like her group to be able to take a backstage tour after the show if possible.
She would like to have a response to this request by the end of the school week (Friday) to have enough time to prepare for the field trip, and she is sending this email on Monday.
She would like for the email to be professional and courteous and to represent her in a professional way.

In this excerpt from "dover beach" by matthew arnold, which two lines or sets of lines suggest that the speaker has undergone a loss of faith? the sea of faith was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled. but now i only hear its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar, retreating, to the breath of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear and naked shingles of the world. ah, love, let us be true to one another! for the world, which seems to lie before us like a land of dreams, so various, so beautiful, so new, hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, nor certitude, nor peace, nor for pain; and we are here as on a darkling plain swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, where ignorant armies clash by night.

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
