EF_Kevin 8 / 13,321 129 Mar 9, 2009 #2Ah, I have not read the book, so can you tell me, in your own words, what this meant?Really, it is your job to come up with a few ideas, and then we will help. Otherwise, we will be doing the work for you. Take a whack at it, and then I will try to help. BTW "a lot" is 2 words.So, what are the "wrong things"?Look at verse 53 from the Tao Te Ching:Keeping to the main road is easy,But people love to be sidetracked.http-server.carleton.ca/~rgray/TaoTeChing
EF_Sean 6 / 3,491 Mar 11, 2009 #3Don't forget, as you craft your first draft, to include properly cited quotations to back your points. In fact, you might start by creating a quote outline, in which you just list the relevant quotations you plan to use in your essay in the order you plan to introduce them. This can be a good way to get started if you are having trouble coming up with ideas.
