How to include Gattaca and The Chrysalids into your paper
There are two ways that you can include “The Chrysalids” and Gattaca into
your essays.
Option #1
You can use the movie and the book to support your opinion on Eugenics. For
example:
The practice of Eugenics is morally wrong. It would cause separation within
society as seen in “The Chrysalids”. Society was divided, human being turning
against another human being merely due to genetics. ~~~ Following a statement
such as this you may want to back up your point with evidence from the internet or
a book.
Option Two:
You could save your examples from Gattaca and “The Chrysalids” for the
second last paragraph, as you last paragraph is the conclusion. Within the second
last paragraphs you could discuss examples from the book and movie that support
your thesis statement (that which you are trying to prove with your paper). Please
refer to the example above. The topic sentence is about how Eugenics is morally
wrong. The rest of the paragraph would be examples supporting your opinion of
Eugenics being morally wrong.
