What they want you to do is to select one of the given prompts that they have written out for you. Either Prompt One or Prompt Two. 

If I were to choose Prompt One, I would follow the instruction as given. I would Google or otherwise find and read an American short story and also a  historical document as they have told me to. Once I read them both, I would proceed to follow the instruction and compare and contrast both pieces of writing with a paragraph or two as they have told me to do at the beginning. 

Basically, they want you to read and write a compare and contrast little bit.

Lord Byron was not typical of the Romantic poets because _____.
Helga [31]
Lord Byron was not typical of the Romantic poets because of many reasons.  Byron was by far one of the least serious and solemn poets of that time and the most flamboyant. He had a more satirical approach in his poetry and a less serious perspective on work in general.
