Blog Model

Below is a sample post--a model of the kind of paragraph I want you to create fro your first blog. it begins with context, then the claim and then reference to the quote, followed by the analysis connecting the quote to the claim. I've numbered the sentences as well. Don't be afraid to make connections between the quote you choose and other parts of the novel as well. Have fun blogging!

It is a pleasant thing to reflect upon, and furnishes a complete answer to those who contend for the gradual degeneration of the human species, that every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.
Charles Dickens

Life is made of ever so many partings welded together.

Charles Dickens

Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.
Charles Dickens

An author is a fool who, not content with boring those he lives with, insists on boring future generations.
