This Course Will Provide You with the Intellectual Challenges And Antelope High School AP English Language and Composition Summer Assignment 2017-2018 Lisa Stanley- ​[email protected] Congratulations on making it to your junior/senior year and for being enrolled in AP English Language and Composition! As you know, AP English is designed to be a college/university level course​, thus the “AP” designation on a transcript rather than “H” (Honors) or “CP” (College Prep). This course will provide you with the intellectual challenges and workload consistent with a typical undergraduate university first-year English composition course​. As a culmination of the course, you will take the AP English Language and Composition Exam given in May (required). Each of the summer assignment tasks is located in our Google Classroom and must be submitted digitally for assessment. To join our Google Classroom, logon to the internet and go to the following browser: https://classroom.google.com/ Join our class by entering the code: ​e9derb Once in the classroom, you will see a brief description of the summer assignment along with this task sheet. Complete each of the tasks in the appropriate forum on or before the assigned due date. Please note that the single ​due date is for all fall and spring students. Summer Assignment Analyzing Style: Following a Columnist Some of the most prominent practitioners of stylish written rhetoric in our culture are newspaper columnists. Sometimes they are called ​pundits​—that is, sources of opinion, or critics. Attached, you will find a list of well-known newspaper columnists. Select one (or another one that I approve of) and complete the tasks below. TASK 1: Brief Biography Write a brief (100-200 words) biography of the columnist. Make sure you cite your source(s) at the bottom of the page. I suggest you import a picture of the author, if possible. TASK 2: Four Annotated Columns Make copies from newspapers or magazines or download them from the internet. I suggest cutting and pasting the columns into your Google Doc. Double-space all entries because it makes them easier to annotate and work with. Your annotations should emphasize such elements as: ● the central idea of the column ● the chief rhetorical strategies at work in the column ● identify appeals to logos, pathos, and/or ethos ● Answer the following: By what means does the columnist seek to convince readers of the truth of his/her central idea? ● the chief stylistic devices at work (literary devices) in the column ● the tone (or tones) of the column ● errors of logic (if any) that appear in the column ● the way the author uses sources and the types of sources the author uses ● the apparent audience the author is writing for Add a few final comments to each column that summarizes your general response to the piece. DO NOT SUMMARIZE THE COLUMN. TASK 3: Depth of Analysis of One Column and Two Extras Choose a favorite column from Task 2 and compare it to TWO other treatments of the same subject: ● a straight, un-slanted news report about the topic of the column or ● another columnist’s opposing take on the issue or ● an editorial or ● a letter to the editor that disagrees with the original column Informed by the two extras you found and your own thinking and reading on the subject, write a brief assessment of the original column. Is it sound? Is it convincing? TASK 4: Final Remarks Add a statement titled “Final Remarks.” In this, reflect on what you learned, what value this had, what you think of the writer or subject matter, etc. All tasks are due in Google Classroom by midnight on the ​first day of school in August 2017​. Failure to complete the assignment or a failing grade on the assignment will result in a lower “kick off” grade for the beginning of the new term. There is no excuse for not completing the assignment. If you enroll in the course, it is simply a requirement.

  • Putin, Exposed, May Become More Dangerous
    Opinions Putin, exposed, may become more dangerous By David Ignatius Opinion writer October 31 at 8:06 PM Has there ever been a covert action that backfired as disastrously as Russia’s attempt to meddle in the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign? Granted, we know all the reasons Moscow is gloating: Donald Trump is president; America is divided and confused; Russia’s propagandization of “fake news” is now repeated by people around the world as evidence that nothing is believable and all information is (as in Russia) manipulated and mendacious. But against this cynical strategy there now stands a process embodied by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, which we will call, as a shorthand: “The Truth.” Mueller has mobilized the investigative powers of the U.S. government to document how Russia and its friends sought to manipulate American politics. We are seeing the rule of law, applied. Put aside for the moment what the indictments and plea agreement announced Monday will ultimately mean for Trump’s presidency. Already, Mueller has stripped the cover from Russia’s machinations: Trump’s former foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos has confessed that he lied to FBI agents about his contacts with individuals connected to Moscow who promised “dirt” on Hillary Clinton; Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort has been charged with laundering $18 million in payoffs from Russia’s Ukrainian friends. Russian meddling is now advertised to the world. This topic will dominate American debate for the next year, at least. In Europe, meanwhile, a similar reaction to Russian influence operations is gaining force.

  • 50 Ways Trump Is Wrong on Trade
    MEMO Published April 7, 2016 • 16 minute read 50 Ways Trump Is Wrong on Trade Gabe Horwitz Donald Trump is a businessman, a billionaire, and a Vice President for the Economic Program globetrotter with nancial interests currently in Turkey, @HorwitzGabe Panama, South Korea, Canada, Philippines, India, Uruguay, Jay Chittooran Brazil, Ireland, Scotland, and the United Arab Emirates, Policy Advisor, Economic 1 Program according to his website. So how could someone with that breadth of global experience be so wrong on trade? Donald Trump is one of America’s loudest voices in opposition to trade generally and to the Trans-Pacic Partnership (TPP), which is his prerogative as a candidate for President. He has leveled bombastic accusations about TPP and other U.S. trade deals; of course, he levels bombastic accusations nearly every day on a host of issues. Of course, the sheer size of TPP —nearly 40% of global GDP— calls for robust debate and analysis. Third Way supports TPP as a way to open U.S. markets, write the rules of commerce in Asia (instead of China), and dramatically increase Made in America exports to the world’s most important growing market. We see this agreement as an essential component of restoring the basic American bargain of economic growth that benets the middle class and those aspiring to join it. Others, including Trump, view TPP dierently, and that debate has been passionate. But unlike most issue areas in this presidential race, Donald Trump has actually proposed a specic trade policy in place of TPP—a 45% tax on imports coming from China, a 35% tax on many imports from Mexico, and a 20% tax on imports from other countries.

  • The Bush Revolution: the Remaking of America's Foreign Policy
    The Bush Revolution: The Remaking of America’s Foreign Policy Ivo H. Daalder and James M. Lindsay The Brookings Institution April 2003 George W. Bush campaigned for the presidency on the promise of a “humble” foreign policy that would avoid his predecessor’s mistake in “overcommitting our military around the world.”1 During his first seven months as president he focused his attention primarily on domestic affairs. That all changed over the succeeding twenty months. The United States waged wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. U.S. troops went to Georgia, the Philippines, and Yemen to help those governments defeat terrorist groups operating on their soil. Rather than cheering American humility, people and governments around the world denounced American arrogance. Critics complained that the motto of the United States had become oderint dum metuant—Let them hate as long as they fear. September 11 explains why foreign policy became the consuming passion of Bush’s presidency. Once commercial jetliners plowed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, it is unimaginable that foreign policy wouldn’t have become the overriding priority of any American president. Still, the terrorist attacks by themselves don’t explain why Bush chose to respond as he did. Few Americans and even fewer foreigners thought in the fall of 2001 that attacks organized by Islamic extremists seeking to restore the caliphate would culminate in a war to overthrow the secular tyrant Saddam Hussein in Iraq. Yet the path from the smoking ruins in New York City and Northern Virginia to the battle of Baghdad was not the case of a White House cynically manipulating a historic catastrophe to carry out a pre-planned agenda.

  • A Single Organization Controls Almost Everything You See, Hear, and Read in the Media and They've Been Handpicking Your Leaders for Decades
    by Matt Agorist January 29, 2018 from TheFreeThoughtProject Website A single organization controls almost everything you see, hear, and read in the media and they've been handpicking your leaders for decades. It is no secret that over the last 4 decades, mainstream media has been consolidated from dozens of competing companies to only six. Hundreds of channels, websites, news outlets, newspapers, and magazines, making up ninety percent of all media is controlled by very few people, giving Americans the illusion of choice. While six companies controlling most everything the Western world consumes in regard to media may sound like a sinister arrangement, the Swiss Propaganda Research center (SPR) has just released information that is even worse. The research group was able to tie all these media companies to a single organization: the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). For those who may be unaware, the CFR is a primary member of the circle of Washington think-tanks promoting endless war. As former Army Major Todd Pierce describes, this group acts as "primary provocateurs" using, "'psychological suggestiveness' to create a false narrative of danger from some foreign entity with the objective being to create paranoia within the U.S. population that it is under imminent threat of attack or takeover." A senior member of the CFR and outspoken neocon warmonger, Robert Kagan has even publicly proclaimed that the U.S. should create an empire. The narrative created by CFR and its cohorts is picked up by their secondary communicators, also known the mainstream media, who push it on the populace with no analysis or questioning.

The 1947 legislation has served us well. It has undergirded our diplomatic efforts, provided the basis to establish our military capa- bilities, and focused our intelligence assets. But the world has changed dramatically in the last fifty years, and particularly in the last decade. Institutions designed in another age may or may not be appropriate for the future. It is the mandate of the United States Commission on National Security/21st Century to examine precise- ly that question. It has undertaken to do so in three phases: the first to describe the world emerging in the first quarter of the next century, the second to design a national security strategy appropri- ate to that world, and the third to propose necessary changes to the national security structure in order to implement that strategy effectively.
