Write two reviews: one of a chapter from Fast Food Nation and one of your essay from Lesson 2; you'll evaluate both using the sa

me criterion, or standard. Then you'll revise your Lesson 2 essay based on what you've discovered.
Your essay should include the following elements:
A review of a single chapter from Fast Food Nation that summarizes it objectively and evaluates it according to a criterion of your choice
A review of your Lesson 2 essay based on the same criterion; this review should also start with an objective summary
An essay with all the content required in Lesson 2, including five credible sources and a thesis statement, but revised to fix any weaknesses you found in your review
A works-cited page that lists all the sources according to MLA guidelines
You should have completed a draft of this assignment in the activity before this one. If you haven't done so, go back and complete that activity now.

Ask yourself these questions as you revise:
Do both of my reviews begin with an objective summary that avoids opinionated language?
Do both of my reviews end with an evaluation based on the same criterion (such as use of evidence or organization)?


Do I correct problems in my Lesson 2 essay that I pointed out while writing my review? Do I also correct problems that my teacher identified in this essay? Do I follow all the same requirements from Lesson 2?
Do I avoid plagiarism by quoting, paraphrasing, and citing sources correctly?
Does my works-cited page list all the sources that I cite in my essay? Does it follow MLA guidelines?
Does my essay have a professional style and an objective tone? What about my reviews?


What is The Fast-Food Nation? Who wrote it? Why is it so popular?
Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal is a book written by Eric Schlosser and was published on January 17, 2001. The purpose of the book is to express the author's concern about the impact this industry has on children in the United States. The book has ten chapters divided into two parts: the American way (American meat), (meat and potatoes), and an epilogue.
In the first part, Eric Schlosser covers the growth of fast-food chains after World War II and industry for the history of men such as obesity, classism, the global imperialism of the United States of America, and environmental devastation. He talks about how the economic and lucrative power, wealth, and stability of American companies and government are more important than the well-being of the American people. Schlosser says “People who smoke crack know the political dangers; people who eat hamburgers don’t ” stating that fast food is as deadly as one of the world's most dangerous drugs.
In the second part, he exposes the development of the flavors industry describing how they were detected in the laboratories and how they are not "natural". In addition, he describes in detail the conditions of work of the slaughterhouses of cattle, the lack of security in them, and the lack of laws that protect these workers, who are mostly illegal immigrants from Mexico and Guatemala who live in fear of Those deported to their countries. He even talks about the effects on the health of consumers and how the meat industry creates lower wages and unfavorable conditions for workers in slaughterhouses. Although the fast-food industry generates millions of jobs annually, they are of a partial nature and with the highest employee turnover in the entire United States and with the minimum training.
Schlosser's way of wording phrases ties the book together. In a subtle but firm way, the book shows the harsh reality of the fast-food industry. This book has opened my eyes and will continue to open millions more.

Why did Gawain continue to wear his green lace sash when he returned to King Arthur’s court? What did the other members start to
vekshin1
1. This relates to the story of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. After Gawain rode in order to find the Green Chapel and face the Green Knight he stays at the castle of the local lord who proposes him a game. He will give Gawain what he caught that day and Gawain was to give him whatever he won that day. On the last day lords wife gives Gawain a green sash that will make him invulnerable and he will need it if he is to survive the meeting with the Green Knight. He withholds this from the lord. Gawain thus breaks his promise and it serves as a reminder of his failure to uphold the knightly ideals. This is why he decides to wear it, as a reminder of his failure.

2. After his fight with the Green Knight, who turned out to be the lord Gawain stayed with, he recounts the tale of his ordeal to his fellow knights. He explains them the importance of the green sash as well. They laugh but agree suggest they begin wearing them for his sake. It is thus through the ages seen as the symbol of honor.

PART A: Which of the following best describes Terrance Powderly’s main argument for converting to an eight-hour work day? A. Red
leva [86]

The correct answer is B. Reducing hours will allow people to educate themselves on economy and business so that they may improve labour inequities and depressions.

In "The Plea for Eight Hours" (1890), Powderly makes an argument in favour of the eight-hour workday. The main argument can be found near the end of the text. He argues that if manufacturers and men worked eight hours, they would have time to study the finance and how to solve the problems that apparently force them to work long hours to make profits. With better understanding of business and economy, they would be able to work less hours but with the same profitability.
