3 minutes Whаt аre the shаred sоciоecоnomic pathways (SSPs)? What relevance do they have to a class about climate fiction?
15 minutes Yоu will reаd аnd respоnd tо both of the two quotаtions below, discussing how they relate to each other. In doing so, you will do the following in two or at most three well-structured paragraphs. Situate the quotations in relation to the book's plot. Be specific when describing how they are significant to the plot, focusing on how they relates to the development of at least two characters. (Hint: I would not focus on Maru, Katya, or Rafi, since their characters do not meaningfully develop, but I think you could choose to connect this with the character development of Kristina, Larch, Charlie, or Lucas.) Close reading step 1: notice a couple key features of the quotations. Find specific wording, phrases, images, etc. that seem important. Close reading step 2: describe and analyze the features of the texts you noticed in close reading step 1: how do they contribute to the broader meaning of the passages? Synthesize this analysis with a broader interpretation of some aspect of the book. Conclude by using this to make a claim about how The Great Transition represents or fictionalizes responses to climate change. Quotation 1: We are fortunate to have Maru as a neighbor. She mentors Emi at CareCorps. Walks Emi home. Trusts Emi with feeding her cat when she is gone on extraction duty. Today she is wearing her Deconstruction Corps uniform. A patch on her sleeve: Miami Company. Meaning Maru has earned the right to celebrate as hard as she wants. Quotation 2: What's wrong with celebrating? Lucas asked Katya. Please. Tell me. I want to know. We cannot become complacent, Katya said. This is no time to relax. Soon people will be saying the Transition has gone too far. Just wait. Well, what's is far enough? said Lucas. It's a fair question. That's just it, said Charlie. The moment we stop is when the destroying classes win. We must always be on alert. The Transition can never end. Sort of ruptures the definition of a transition, doesn't it? mumbled Rafi. I think it's fine to celebrate, but we have to keep fighting, said Kristina, shifting in my lap. The push for everything to go back to normal is about to become relentless. I like normal, said Lucas. I miss normal. What's wrong with normal? Normal brought us to the brink, said Charlie.
10 minutes Fоr the fоllоwing quotаtion, you will do the following in one or аt most two well-structured pаragraphs. Situate the quotation in relation to the book's plot. Be specific when describing how it is significant to the plot and related to Kristina's character development. Close reading step 1: notice a couple key features of the quotation. Find specific wording, phrases, images, etc. that seem important. Close reading step 2: describe and analyze the features of the text you noticed in close reading step 1: how do they contribute to the broader meaning of the passage? Synthesize this analysis with a broader interpretation of some aspect of the book. Conclude by using this to make a claim about how The Great Transition represents or fictionalizes responses to climate change. Quotation: Kristina was expected to be the young and fearless and battle-hardened face of Phoenix Company. She always removed her bandages for the cameras. She wanted viewers to see her scars. Her medals, she called them. No time for vanity when battling for the future of the planet. So many had suffered worse. She spoke openly about her parents. Her sister. Her home. Her belief that we could not give an inch to self-pity or it would all be for nothing. The only way to honor our losses was to see the Transition through. Which meant collective sacrifice. Work. A victory dependent on every one of us.
