This year course engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of periods, disciplines, and
rhetorical contexts and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. More immediately, the course
prepares the students to perform satisfactorily on the A.P. Examination in Language and Composition given in the spring.
Both their writing and their reading should make students aware of the interactions among a writer’s purposes, audience
expectations, and subjects as well as the way generic conventions and the resources of language contribute to effectiveness
in writing. Students will learn and practice the expository, analytical, and argumentative writing that forms the basis of
academic and professional writing; they will learn to read complex texts with understanding and to write prose of
sufficient richness and complexity to communicate effectively with mature readers. Readings will be selected primarily,
but not exclusively, from American writers. Students who enroll in the class will take the AP examination.

Your question isn't quite clear, but if you're wondering if a chemical is polar or non-polar, you simply draw a VSEPR sketch and draw arrows where the bonds are. Only draw arrows between atoms, NOT between an atom and a lone pair of electrons. The arrow should point to the most electronegative atom (you should be given an electronegativity scale). Afterwards, you add up the arrows as vectors, and look at the sum of the vectors. If the sum is zero (CH4 is a good example), the chemical is non-polar. If the sum is a vector, the chemical is polar (H2O, or water, is polar).
