[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We read a lot of Chaucer and Shakespeare in my high school and inevitably only like 3 people in the class actually read the works and everyone else just did Cliffs notes. Maybe teachers pick more modern work to try and avoid this?[/quote]Are you in high school now? Not too many adults will say "only like" and "invariably" instead of "inevitably" but regardless, I understand your point. A solid mixture of contemporary and past authors would certainly help improve writing skills and possibly show a correlation between the new and old writers of yesteryear.[/quote] LOL you sound like a total prick. Or wait I don't want to sound too young, maybe just jerk would suffice?[/quote]
