Question 9

What not to do?

Answer 9

Don’t assert- don’t make a statement about the question and don’t back it up with a bit of context/evaluate provenance
BUT don’t narrate- don’t out too much context in
Don’t describe the source- don’t explain what its saying pick out the relevant bits that you can DIRECTLY compare to a point thats also mentioned in the other source
CAN’T go on about 1 source for even half a paragraph and then the toher half about the other source becuase even if you’ve vaguely connected a similair point you have to make it clear in the first line of each paragraph what point you’re making ans then alternate for each thing- provenance e.g. tone, content you’re relating the point to
