Complete the following writing prompts that help you look for patterns of opposition in order to analyze the assumptions in Wolf’s essay. Reread Wolf’s essay and annotate words or phrases that indicate oppositions. Based on your annotations, continue filling in the chart, listing as many patterns of opposition as you notice. For each pair, including those already on the chart, put an asterisk next to the term or idea that the writer seems to value or prefer over the other term or idea.

In which cases was it challenging to determine which term or idea Wolf valued over the other? Do you think this is a flaw in Wolf’s proposal? Explain your answer.

Keeping in mind the list of oppositions you developed, write a paragraph detailing which of these provide insight into some of the assumptions Wolf makes. Which oppositions compel you to reflect on your own assumptions and the values that underlie them? How do your assumptions compare to those present in the reading?
