Assignment: Answer all of the questions in 2-4 sentence paragraph, unless the question requires a one-word or one-sentence answer. Your answers must be according to the lecture and the reading, and demonstrate a comprehension of them. Do not write as part of your answer "depends on the individual", "everybody thinks about it differently", "this is just how I feel" or anything else of the sort - this is not a class on relativism.

All citations from the text must be in quotation marks, with a page number. All paraphrasing from the text must be provided with a page number. Unless there are quotation marks - you need to use your own words (and I do not mean change a few words). Read the relevant passages from the text attached and then restate them in your own words to answer the question and do what the parts ask you to do.

Use numbers - and answer under those numbers. Do not include the question.

In 1-10, the answers should be according to the lecture and the reading. Your opinion is needed in 11-14.
