Every week, I will be adding another close reading passage and set of questions to this page. These are intended to give you extra practice with analyzing and interpreting upper-level literature. I will not take these up for a grade, so it is your decision to use this or not.
I will also be posting possible answers for each question. Keep in mind that answers will vary.
If you would like to talk about close reading with me during tutorials, please bring one of these completed close reading practices with you.
