Literature

 

The bonds between siblings are among the strongest. May-Lee Chai describes the relationship between two sisters in her short story, “Saving Sourdi.” 

After reading “Saving Sourdi,” discuss the following questions in 3–5 paragraphs:

  1. The story begins with a strong revealing statement from Nea, the narrator. How do you think Nea feels about her sister Sourdi based on this information? How does what happens at the beginning of the story foreshadow what happens later?
  2. This story is told from Nea’s point of view. How do you think the story would change if it were told from Sourdi’s point of view? Do you feel closer to the character than you would if this story were told in third person?
  3. Nea briefly mentions an experience she and Sourdi had in a minefield when they were younger. What impact do you think this had on the relationship between the sisters?
  4. Nea’s family is not originally from the United States. What are some clues the author gives to describe the origin of their ethnicity? Give 2 examples of characters who say things that are racially offensive, and discuss how this makes you feel about those characters. Can you relate to these experiences?
  5. How does the author describe Duke and Mr. Chhay? Do you get a sense of who these characters are based on these descriptions?
  6. As the story progresses, how does the relationship between Nea and Sourdi change? Why do you think it changes?
  7. What does the mother value, based on how reaction to updates she receives from Sourdi? Why do you think she might feel this way?

What is an  Annotated Bibliography

GUIDE & SAMPLE

https://monroecollege.libguides.com/annotatedbibliography

An Annotated Bibliography is a working list of references—books, journal article, Online documents, websites, etc. that you will use for an essay, research paper, or project. However, each reference citation is followed by a short summative and/or evaluative paragraph, which is called an annotation. ( See sample attached).
Administrative Notes:
This assignment is listed on the syllabus as “Mid-term research paper” and is worth 100 Points ( 20% of your grade). Your paper will be an annotated bibliography, specifically focusing on the “Discretion” topic (i.e. Protecting proprietary information  ) in the context of protecting National Infrastructure.

Annotated Bibliography sample attached.  Internet have many other samples of what this document should look like.

You paper must be in correct APA format, use correct grammar, and will need to include at least FIVE (5) resources (articles) related to Discretion with their respective short summaries for each article.
ALL of which must:
1) Be current. Published within the last 5 years.
2) Must be from Peer-Reviewed-Articles. ( University Library ).
3) All articles related to Chapter 7 Discretion.

Remember that an annotation is not the same as an abstract. Abstracts are descriptive. Your annotations are to be evaluative and critical. Give me enough information for me to decide if I’m interested enough to read the paper, and also how you perceive the paper. Don’t go skimpy on these annotations, but DO NOT write too much here. Quality is far more important that quantity. This exercise is for each of you to demonstrate that you can identify, categorize, and digest multiple research papers. 
Every resource you choose must be peer reviewed. That means the paper must have undergone a formal peer review before being published in a journal or presented at a conference. You must ensure that your resources have undergone rigorous reviews. In most cases, you can find out the review process for a conference or journal by visiting the appropriate web site. Do not simply assume that a resource is peer reviewed – check it out.
