Therefore I . . . Therefore I . . .
Students generally try to complete an assignment with as little effort as possible.
For example, I had a student read a paragraph from a book he had selected from the library. A detective took an elevator to the penthouse to meet someone for the first time. When the man opened his door, the detective noticed velvet curtains and marble top tables. I stopped the student and asked what the detective now knew about this man. However, he was unable to answer me because there was no one word or phrase describing the man, only clues.
