MLA Format Practice
Directions: The goal of this exercise is to show me that you can create a
document using MLA format while also having a little fun answering some goofy
questions.
Open a new blank document. Answer each question below in a separate paragraph
of at least 4-5 sentences. You must create the document from scratch (new blank
document) and you must use MLA format.
Use RAGU for each question:
Restate the question in your answer
Answer the question by directly responding to the key verbs, nouns and phrases in the question.
Give reasons
Use word for word evidence, details and/or examples from the text for your answer
1. Would you rather be rich and ugly, or poor and good-looking?
2. Would you rather only be able to whisper or only be able to shout?
3. Would you rather be stranded on an island alone or with someone you hate?
4. Would you rather forget who you were or who everyone else was?
5. Would you rather run your tongue down ten feet of a New York City street
or lick someone’s armpit after a week without bathing?
6. What does this say about you?
