This reduction in credit should not affect a

student’s overal[ average by the end ofthe course, but does account for reduced work in citing, organizing, anatyzing, and creating a thesis statement.

Your draft portfolio (outtine) does not need to have a futly written and edited essay; parts of it should be written out, and the foltowing items are required:

Working thesis statement (25ak of grade); Thesis statement review: page 343 in Writing with Power.

Outline shows three items (at least two using cited items) to support your thesis statement (25o/o of grade).

on the rubric for this portfolio found in the lessons. Final portfotios r,vithoui citing witlnot be accepted.

ReqLrirements and Objective of this paper:

Standard students shoutd write a minimum of a five paragraph essay for the final portfolio.

l-. Thesis statement: Offers a debatabte idea about a work of [iterature. lf you cannot imagine someone offering a reasonable chaltenge, interpreting something differently, different judgment, or other outcome to your thesis, then keep searching. Look to some of your daity reading questions (in lesson or page after-the reading in the text book) for opinion or judgment questions where there is more than one defendable answer. lf you find and use an expert soLrrce or two, you can debate, elaborate, or defend the expert’s opinion, but you must show that you are bringing new itenrs of you r own to your thesis and support; th is portfolio is not simply the passing along of information. See the thesis entry for a detailed example, webmail me if yor-r would like to discuss.

2. Do not summarize the work. lt is expected that you will introduce the author and work; however, body paragraphs of summary wiI not earn credit. You shoLrld assume the reader of your paper is famitiar with the work you pick to anatyze. lf you 100% feel tike you need summaryto set up something in your paper, this moLrld be an extra paragraph.

3. Use the work as part of your support. This is not the same as summary. Use details, paraphrase, and use quotes that are cited.

Al[ students should have a works cited page: always include the reading selection you are anatyzing. and any expert sources you use. Websites like Wikipedia, Yahoo answers, and essay sample/purchase websites are not atlowed or acceptable. Look for websites with good credentia{s, webmaiI me if you would [ike me to look over a link or help with citing.

Standard students must use at least three quotes in support/body paragraphs, with in-text citing. At least two of these needs to be from the reading selection they are anatyzing.

Check my Work can be found under links on your homepage. Students must turn this in before credii is awarded on alI finaI portfolios, please add link to your final portfoIio, or add the report file.

Your draft portfotio will need an outline; here is an example, currently fitled in with hints and suggestions. Outlining hetp can also be found on pgs. 347-350 in Writing with Power.

z-7- O/n.n” fall the war was always there, but u,e did not go to it any

l-./ ^or.. It was cold in the fall in.lvlilanl and the durL*cu*” rr”ry early. Then the electric Iights came on, ard it r,tas pleasant along the streets looking in the rtindows. There was much garne hang- ing outside the shops, and the sn6r^. powdered in the fur of the foxes and the wind blew their tails. The deer hung stiff and heavy and empty, and small birds brler, in the wind and the lriind turned their feathers. It was a cold taU and the r,r,ind came down from the mountains.

lVe were all at the hospital every aflernoon, and there were different wavs of waiking across the town through the dusk to the hospital. lwo of the ways \,vere alongside canais, but they rnrere long. Ah,rravs, though, you crossed a bridge across a canai to enter the hospital. Thereu’as achoice ofthreebridges. On one ofthem awoman

“t as very old and

verv beautiful, and you entered thrcugh a gate and rvalked across a courtyard and out a gate on the other side. There were usually funerals starting from the courtyard. Berrond the old hospital ltrere the ner,r, brick pavilions, and there \^7e met every afternoon and were all very polite and interested in what lvas the matter, and sat in the rrachines that were to make so much difference.

The doctor came up to the machine where I was srtting and said: “What did you like best to do before the war? Did you practice a sport? ”

I said: “Yes, football.” “Good,” he said. “You r,r,ill be able to play football again better than

ever.” lvly knee did r”iot bend and the leg dropped straight from the knee to the

ankle r.tithout a calf, and the rnachine was to bend the knee and make it move as in riding a tricycle. But it did not bend yet, and instead the machine lurched u,hen it came to the bending part. The doctor said: “That n,ill all pass. You are a fortunate young man. You will play football again like a champion.”

In the next machine rvas a major who had a little hand like a baby’s. He winked at me when the doctor examined his hand, which was between two leather straps that bounced up and down and flapped tlie stiff fingers, and said: ‘And rr.ill I roo play lbotball. captain-doctor?” He had been a very great fencer, and before the r,r,ar the greatest fencer in ltaly.

The doctor went to his office in a back room and brought a photo- graph which showed a hand that had been withered almost as small as the major’s, befbre it had taken a machine course, and afler r.vas a little larger. The major held the photograph rvith his good hand and looked at it very carefully. “,A. rvound?” he asked.

‘An industrial accident,” the doctor said. “Very interesting, -“,er\r interesting,” the rrajor said, and handed it back to

the doctor. “You have confidence? ” “No,” said the major. There lruere three boys who came each day who were about the same age

1 r.t’as. The)z were all three from Milan, and one of them was to be a lawyer, and one \,\,’as to be a painter, and one had intended to be a soldier, and after we were finished with the machines, sometimes we walked back together

to the Cat6 Cova, lvhich was next door to the Scala.: We walked the short way through the communist quarter because \47e were four together. The people hated us because \^.,e uTere officers, and from a rt,ine-shop some- one would call out, “A basso gli uiiiciali!”‘ as *,” passed. Another boy r,r,ho walked with us sometimes and made us five wore a black silk hand- kerchief across his face because he had no nose then and his face r.r.as to be rebuilt. He had gone out to the front from the military academy and been wounded lvithin an hour after he had gone into the front line for the first time. They rebuilt his face, but he came from a very old family and they could never get the nose exactly right. He went to South America and ‘*,orked in a bank. But this was a long time ago, and then we did not any of us know how it was going to be afterward. We only kneu, then that there lvas always the war, but that we were not going, to it any more.

We all had the same medals, except the boy with the black silk bandage across his face, and he had not been at the front long enough to get any medals. The tall boy r,l,ith the very pale face lvho tvas to be a la\^,yer had been lieutenant of Arditia and had three medals of the sort u7e each had only one of. He had lived a verv long time with death and r,r,as a iittle detached. We were all a littie detached, and there u’as nothing that held us together except that we met every afternoon at the hospital. Although, as we walked to the Cova through the tough part of town, u’alking in the dark, with light and singing coming out of the wine-shops, and sometimes having to r,valk into the street when the

the people ‘w’ho disliked us, did not under- stand.

We ourselves all understood the Cova, r,vhere it rvas rich and warm and not too brightly lighted, and noisy a1d

smoky at certain hours, and there were alrt ays girls at the tables and the

illustrated papers on a rack on the wall. The girls at the cova were very

patriotic, and t found thar the most patriotic people in ltaly were the caf€ girls-and I believe they are still patriotic.

The boys at first were very polite about my medals and asked me what I

had done to get them. I showed them the papers, which'”t’ere written in very

beautiful language and full of fratellanza5 and abnegazione,6 but which really

said, with the adjectives removed, that I had been given the medals because

I was an American. After that their manner changed a little toward me,

although I was their friend against outsiders. I was a friend, but I was never

really Jne of them after they had read the citations, because it had been dif-

ferent with them and they had done very different things to get their medals’

I had been r,r,ounded, it was true; but we all knelt’ that being r’r’ounded, after

all, was reallv a1 accident. I was lever ashamed of the ribbons, though, and

sometimes, after the cocktail hour, I would imagine myself having done all

the things they had done ro ger their medals; but waiking home at night

througir the empty streels with the cold wind and all the shops closed, trying

to ke”p near the street lights, I kneu, that I would never have done such things, and I was very much afraid to die, and often lay in bed at night by

never kno\^I nolv hov/ he would have turned out; so he could never be accepted either, and I liked him because I thought perhaps he rvould not have turned out to be a hawk either.

The major, who had been the great fencer, did not believe in bravery, and spent much time while \^/e sat in the machines correcting my gramrnar. He had complimented me on how I spoke ltalian, and r,te talked together very easilv. One day I had said that ltahan seemed such an easy lanE;uage to me that I could not take a great interest in it; everything was so easy to say. ‘Ah, yes,” the major said. “Wl’ry, then, do you not take up the use of grammar? ” So we took up the use of granmar, and soon Italian was such a difficult language that I rvas afraid to talk to him until I had the grammar straight in my mind.

The major came very regularly to the hospital. I do not think he ever missed a day, although I am sure he did not believe in the machines. There was a time when none of us believed in the machines, and one day the major said it was all nonsense. The machines lvere nel^7 then and it uras we who were to prove them. It was an idiotic idea, he said, “a theor\.’, like another.” I had not Iearned my grammar, and he said I was a stupid impossible disgrace, and he was a fool to have bothered with me. He was a small man and he sat straight up in his chair with his right hand thrust into the machine and looked straight ahead at the r.all r,thile the straps thumped up and down with his fingers in them.

“What will you do nhen the war is over if it is over?” he asked me. “Speak grammatically! ”

“l will go to the States.” ‘Are you married? ” “No, but I hope to be.” “The more of a fooi you are,” he said. He seemed very angry. ‘A man

must not marry.” “Why’, Signor Maggiore? ” “Don’t cali me’Signor tr’laggiore.”‘ “Whv must not a man marry?” “He cannot marry. He cannot marry,” he said angrily. “lf he is to lose

everything, he should not place himself in a position to lose that. t{e should not place himself in a position to lose. He should find things he cannot lose.”

He spoke very angriiy and bitterl-v and looked straight ahead while he talked.

“But why should he necessaril-v lose it? ” “He’ll lose it,” the major said. He rn,as looking at the wall. Then he looked

down at the machine and jerked his little hand out from betr.t een the straps and slapped it hard against his thigh. “He’ll lose it,” he almost shouted. “Don’t argue with me!” Then he called to the attendant r.tho ran the machines. “Come and turn this damned thing off.”

He went back into the other rootn for the light treatment and the mas- sage. Then I heard him ask the doctor if he might use his telephone and he shut the door. When he came back into the room, I was sitting in another machine. He lrras wearing his cape and had his cap on, and he came directll, toward my machine and put his arm on my shoulder.

“l am sorry,” he said, and patted lne on the shoulder u,ith his good hand. “I would not be rude. My wife has iust died. You must fbrgive me.”

“Oh-‘ I said, feeling sick for him. “l am so sorry.” He stood there biting his lor,r,er lip. “lt is very difficult,” he said. “l can-

not resign myself,” He looked straight past me and out through the window. Then he began

to cry. “l am utterl-v unable to resign mvselfl” he said and choked. And then crying, his head up looking at nothing, carrying himself straight and soldierly, with tears on both cheeks and biting his lips, he walked past the machines and out the door.

The doctor told me that the malor’s rt ife, who was very young and r.t hom he had not married until he lr,as definitely invalided out of the war,E had d’ed of pneumonia. She had been sick only a few days. No one expected her to die. The major did not come to the hospital for three days. Then he came at the usual hour, wearing a black band on the sleeve of his unitbrm. When he came back, there were large framed photographs around the wall, of all sorts of u,ounds before and after they had been cured by the machines. In fiont of the machine the major used were three photographs of hands like his that were completely restored. I do not knor,r, where the doctor got them. I alrvays under- stood we \^iere the first Io use the rnachines. The photographs did not make much difference to the maior because he only looked out of the windou,.
