Senior Purple Vocabulary: Using Google News (due before class on Tuesday)













Searching topics in Google for "news" will provide at an instant the most recent articles from reliable media resources. When you begin your research paper in the winter, using this search tool will be a MUST. 
For this homework assignment, I want you to work with the fourteen words below. Read each definition and the example sentence that follows. Then search Google News for each of these fourteen vocabulary words. Find an article that uses the word, and read the sentence or headline in which each word is found. Determine how (or if) the word is used correctly in the article. Then type (don't copy and paste) JUST the sentence or headline for each word into the comment box. e.g. 1. India asks all sides to abjure violence.

In addition, read JUST ONE entire article of the fourteen that you have found. Briefly summarize the MAIN POINT (in no more than two sentences) of that article AFTER the sentence or headline that you wrote for #14. e.g. The Indian government asks that the warring political factions in Egypt try to get along by engaging in dialogue to restore order in that country.

Finally, be ready, if called upon, to talk briefly about your article in class on Tuesday. Be able to relate not just the main idea, but also some other specific ideas in the article. Of course, be able to relate how your vocab word was used.
