The essay topic for the final Language III exam on December 2^nd, 2015 will be based on Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. You should focus on the main character Montag. Please read the text very carefully and revise the notes on comparison and/or contrast and on cause-effect analysis. Don´t forget to review the outline layout and the connectors you should use for the different modes of development.
