This week we are going to be focusing on expository writing, or writing to inform. As we write on different topics, you will be asked to include information about the sources from which you collected ideas. An important lesson to have when writing about others' ideas and work is correctly punctuating titles.
In the examples below, use any prior knowledge you possess to choose whether to underline or use "quotation marks" around the given title. This is just practice, but do your best. For each question, type either QUOTES or UNDERLINE to show your answer.
1. Did you read the short story The Black Cat?
2. I watched the opera Madam Butterfly.
3. Do you still get the newspaper The Athens Banner?
4. We read about the ship the Titanic.
5. One episode of The Closer called The Wedding was so funny.
6. Justin Hayward was the lead singer on The War of the Worlds musical.
7. Judy Garland sang Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
8. Come watch the play Othello.
9. The movie Taken is really good.
10. My magazine, Archeology, has not come.
