Hamburger Hotdog Paper

Writer’s Name: Tommy KimQuote #1

Say: “‘O Cyclops! Would you feast on my companions? Puny, am I, in a cave man’s hands? How do you like the beating that we gave you, you damned cannibal? Eater of guests under your roof! Zeus and the gods have paid you!’” (994).

MEAN: Odysseus illustrates colossal hubris in what amounts to a glory-taunt, insulting the Cyclops even after debilitating the creature by stabbing his eye. MATTER: In this case, Odysseus acts with the immaturity of a child, acting in an unworthy way of taking advantage of an opponent when they are most vulnerable. Had Odysseus made these claims of strength and bravado while he were in the cave, staring at the face of death, then he would be worthy, but making these taunts after escaping amounts to a cowardly act. In fact, he endangers his men by this juvenile behavior since the Cyclops then throws a boulder at the men, prompted by this taunt. Lives are endangered, immaturity is revealed, and Odysseus is unworthy.

COUNTER-ARGUMENT

THESIS: In the epic poem, The Odyssey by Homer, Odysseus is an unworthy hero because of his arrogant actions and motives. Say: “I clambered fore and aft my hulk until a comber/split her, keel from ribs, and the big timber/floated free; the mast, too, broke away…These I straddled,/riding the frightful storm” (1015). Mean (What does the quote “mean”? Summarize): Odysseus explains how he tied the broken pieces of his boat together to survive the ocean storm. MATTER (How does this matter to the thesis?): Although he shows muscular strength by tying rope to broken pieces of wood, in the end, he lacks the courageous motive and mental strength to risk his life and find his men. The put it another way, he is unworthy because he is arrogantly looking out for himself instead of searching for survivors (THE UNTOLD) for whom he is responsible as a leader.

Hamburger Hotdog Paper

Writer’s Name: Tommy KimQuote #1

Say: ABIGAIL. I have been hurt, Mr. Danforth; I have seen my blood runnin’ out! I have been near to murdered every day because I done my duty pointing out the Devil’s people—and this is my reward? To be mistrusted, denied, questioned like a—DANFORTH, weakening. Child, I do not mistrust youABIGAIL, looking about in the air, clasping her arms about her as though cold. I—I know not. A wind, a cold wind, has come. (101)

MEAN: Abigail argues that she is the virtuous one, that she is suffering because she is aiding the court, turning in those who were acting suspicious MATTER: In this case, her denouncement of the court reveals her admirable ambition to beat the unfair judicial system, and by simply pointing at the paranoia in the air, not creating it, she confirms what the judges already believe—that evil has invaded the town and is clouding their judgment.

Quote #2

Say:ABIGAIL. She is blackening my name in the village! She is telling lies about me! She is a cold, sniveling woman, and you bend to her! Let her turn you like a—PROCTOR. Do you look for whippin’? (22)

MEAN: This passage illustrates just how far Williams uses any means necessary to win Proctor’s love, even questioning his manhood. MATTER: As a result, her ambition inspires her to try new methods to be romantically involved with Proctor, never quitting, using her resourcefulness to use every possible way to achieve her goal of Proctor.

Quote #3 (Counterargument)Say: ABIGAIL. No, he’ll be comin’ up. Listen, now; if they be questioning us, tell them we danced—I told him as much already. (18)

MEAN: This passage reveals how Williams can masterfully arrange plans so that all the girls involved with the original ritual have the same account of the incident.

MATTER: Ultimately, Abigail Williams ambitiously arranges the proper stories to tell using her resourceful mind. Though this may be immoral to some who are obsessive with rules, in the end Williams allows her friends and herself a way to escape the cruel punishments given out during that time, punishment that included stone presses, hangings, and drowning. The pure ambition to survive allowed Williams to survive the ruthless persecution of that era.

In the play The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, Abigail Williams is an admirable character whose resourcefulness and ambition are heroic.

.

• Example:Donald Trump is worth four billion dollars, and he is running for the United States Presidency for 2016. Many businessleaders respect and admire Trump’s accomplishments, but many of his actions, including dodging the Vietnam War draft, reveal an unworthy man who persuades Americans by using hatred and fear to diminish those who are disadvantaged. He is an arrogant bully. (Move #1) Many men like Trump fail living up to the standards of heroism, going back centuries, including characters in literature from Hellenistic Troy. (Move #2) In the epic poem, The Odyssey by Homer, Odysseus is an unworthy hero because of his arrogant actions and motives.

time you experienced the thesis:

EXAMPLE: MR. KIM’s FATHER IN COMMUNITY COLLEGE.

3 SENSORY DETAILS• Air conditioning• Back Pack zipping• Whispering of students

Introduction• Scene: Write 3 sensory details.The air conditioning of the classroom (WHERE) came down heavily on

my father’s (WHO) head, chilling the sweat off of his neck. The community college classroom was filled to capacity, with 80 students rustling papers, zipping up back packs, and whispering to each other before the professor arrived. My father smelled the strange perfumes that reminded him of fruit and flowers. When the professor began the lecture, my father was utterly bewildered. He could catch a few words, but the Chemistry class seemed fractured, unable to be pieced together. Although he had a minimal understanding of English, my father charged ahead to take this class to provide a better life for his family. The impossibility (WHAT) stared him in the face, but he attempted the class anyways. He ultimately dropped out of the class, but it doesn’t mean he is less admirable. (TRANSITION TO THESIS)It is the reaching that matters more than the attaining.

• Who, what, where of argument.– Who: My father– What: impossibility– Where: Classroom

Introduction• Scene: Write 3 sensory details.Use a student sample “admirable” character

Introduction• Write your thesis after each of your introductions:

Scene, Rhetorical Question, Factual Statement.• Example:

The black smoke from the burning Blackhawk helicopter smothered my uncle’s face. He and his partner, Delta Force Sergeant Shugart, watched as mobs of Somali soldiers approached the crashed helicopter. Even amid the thumping helicopter blades, my uncle could hear the shots and cheers of the mob. But my uncle asked to be lowered closer to the crash. My uncle, Delta Force sniper team leader Gary Gordon, slid down a nylon rope from the helicopter, landed on the dirt, and ran to the injured pilot tangled in the crash. My uncle knew his chances of survival were close to zero. The impossibility stared him in the face, but he attempted to secure the perimeter anyways. He ultimately was killed, but it doesn’t mean he is less admirable. It is the reaching that matters more than the attaining. In the play The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, John Proctor is one such hero, an admirable character whose reaching for the impossible is considered heroic.

Move #1• Write your thesis after your transition into your

thesis.• Example:Donald Trump is worth four billion dollars, and he is running for the United States Presidency for 2016. Many businessleaders respect and admire Trump’s accomplishments, but many of his actions, including dodging the Vietnam War draft, reveal an unworthy man who persuades Americans by using hatred and fear to diminish those who are disadvantaged. He is an arrogant bully. (Move #1) Many men like Trump fail living up to the standards of heroism, going back centuries, including characters in literature from Hellenistic Troy. (Move #2) In the epic poem, The Odyssey by Homer, Odysseus is an unworthy hero because of his arrogant actions and motives.

MOVE #3, PARAGRAPH #2!• Introduce quote “move. Summarize what is happening

around the quote. Assume the reader hasn’t read the book.)

• Use the following template:

A clear instance Odysseus’s unworthy ways was (who-what-when of scene), “Quote” (Page #)

– Example: A clear instance Odysseus’s unworthy ways was after the encounter with the Cyclops, when Odysseus and his men escaped the cave of the single-eyed cannibal,

Move #4 - 6 (Move # 4) “‘O Cyclops! Would you feast on my companions?

Puny, am I, in a cave man’s hands? How do you like the beating that we gave you, you damned cannibal? Eater of guests under your roof! Zeus and the gods have paid you!’” (994). (Move # 5) Odysseus illustrates colossal hubris in what amounts to a glory-taunt, insulting the Cyclops even after debilitating the creature by stabbing his eye. (Move # 6) In this case, Odysseus acts with the immaturity of a child, acting in an unworthy way of taking advantage of an opponent when they are most vulnerable. Had Odysseus made these claims of strength and bravado while he were in the cave, staring at the face of death, then he would be worthy, but making these taunts after escaping amounts to a cowardly act. In fact, he endangers his men by this juvenile behavior since the Cyclops then throws a boulder at the men, prompted by this taunt. Lives are endangered, immaturity is revealed, and Odysseus is unworthy.

Move #7 & 8• Transition “move” into paragraph #3• Use the following template:

(Move #7) Not only is his (worthy/unworthy trait) displayed when (Where say #1 occurs) his worthy/unworthy attitude is also on display when (Where say #2 occurs). (Move #8)

Example: Not only is his immaturity on display when fighting an enemy, his unworthy attitude is also on display when he interacts with his men, specifically during their stay on the island filled with the Cattle of the Sun God

Paragraph #3: Moves 9-11Move 9 (Say): “’O Father Zeus and gods in bliss forever, you made me sleep away this day of mischief” (1012)!

Move 10 (Mean): Odysseus claims that it was Zeus’ fault for Odysseus oversleeping while his men slaughtered the cows, which were supposed to be left alone.

Move 11 (Matter): As a result of Odysseus’ absence from the men, they had offended the Sun Gods by killing the cows, but Odysseus is avoiding his responsibility by blaming Zeus. He is an unworthy leader who arrogantly believes he is not capable of doing wrong, revealing a selfish motive that refuses to accept the consequences for making a mistake.

Paragraph #4: Moves 12-16Move 12 (Contrast Transition): There are some

circumstances, however, that readers might deem Odysseus as (worthy/unworthy), such as the moment when Odysseus (Who-what-where of quote), Move 13 (Introduce quote):

Paragraph #4: Moves 12-16Move 14 (Say: a quote that CONTRADICTS your thesis)“I clambered fore and aft my hulk until a comber/split her, keel from ribs, and the big timber/floated free; the mast, too, broke away…These I straddled,/riding the frightful storm” (1015). Move 15 (Mean): Odysseus explains how he tied the broken pieces of his boat together to survive the ocean storm. Move 16 (Matter):Although he shows muscular strength by tying rope to broken pieces of wood, in the end, he lacks the courageous motive and mental strength to risk his life and find his men. The put it another way, he is unworthy because he is arrogantly looking out for himself instead of searching for survivors . (Unmentioned Variable) for whom he is responsible as a leader.

Paragraph #5: Moves 16-181

(Move 17: Transition) On the whole, being a leader is difficult because a good leader always puts the women and men they are responsible for first. As the president of the United States, your primary responsibility is to protect those who need help, and like Odysseus, (Move 18: Connect with introduction) Trump only understands his selfish motives—they both only understand colossal hubris and arrogance. We can only hope that being a hero does not mean being someone with the motives of a toddler. A toddler with his fingertip over a nuclear weapon switch can only mean catastrophe for all of us.
