(1) Remember to write this as a formal essay, not as a homework assignment.
(2) Avoid colloquialisms (i.e., informal language), and be sure to outline your ideas so your paper is well organized.
(3) It is not necessary to answer the questions in the order they are listed above; as long as answers are thoughtfully incorporated, you should do well on the paper.
