Befоre gоing аny further, let's tаke а mоment—and a deep breath. Re-read the work you have produced thus far by clicking back to the Paraphrase, Observe, Contextualize, and Analyze steps. Using your observations and analyses in the preceding steps, write one paragraph (at least five sentences) that conveys your interpretation of the passage. State the main thesis of your interpretation—that is, the central claim you are arguing for—and then support that thesis by presenting the evidence you gathered in the first four steps. This fifth step is the moment that your unified interpretation of the passage comes into view. In many ways, this is the culmination of the close reading process; indeed, this step will often result in the germ of a persuasive essay. And, since your observations and analyses should also add up to an interpretive conclusion about the passage as a whole, it is okay if this paragraph integrates and builds on your responses to the previous step.
