Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer."

The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists think the very first cases started at least ten years before. Cows usually eat only grass and other plants, but farmers had been feeding them a meat and bone mixture that made the cows plumper. But somehow, at least one batch of the mixture had become contaminated with what was then an unknown killer: a prion.

By 1993, British farmers were reporting up to one thousand new cases of BSE a week. Governments all around the world reacted by increasing testing for the disease and not allowing any cows to be eaten if they were at risk of having the disease. As sheep can also get a prion disease called scrapie, they were tested as well. Farmers were angry that they were losing their livestock, and nobody knew how to protect cows and people from the disease.

Consumers were also in a panic when they learned about BSE, and for a very good reason: prions are infectious. If you eat a prion from a "mad cow” or sheep, you are at risk for developing a human version of BSE. The public felt betrayed that their governments had underreacted to the problem or covered it up.

Eventually, in 1997, governments began to ban farmers from feeding their livestock high-risk meat and bone mixtures. With that ban, the epidemic quickly peaked, and by 2010 had largely disappeared. Over the years, half a million cows and two hundred people had been killed by prions.

In the end, the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in public health. Citizens were enraged at their governments for having kept prions a secret. Governments, who had lost the public trust, struggled to find the best way to communicate health risks without creating unnecessary panic.

How does the author's use of chronology help support the idea that the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in government use of law to support public health?

o The author lays out a timeline to show how scientific discoveries made governments less likely to make laws for public health.
o The author makes it clear that prions were always known to be dangerous and that scientists discovered them to be the cause of mad cow disease.
o The author discusses how the mad cow disease epidemic ended only about twenty-five years after it first became a problem.
o The author shows how frustrated people were that nothing was done about a disease until over ten years after it was discovered.

Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed
as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great
ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore
with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with
beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship
before my education began, only I was without compass or
sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the
harbour was. "Light! give me light!" was the wordless cry of
my soul, and the light of love shone on me in that very
hour.

When dealing with other cultures or perspectives, is it more important to focus on your similarities or differences?

This year, we've read a multitude of stories from a variety of perspectives. We've explored some of the attitudes and ideas that divide, we've seen from the perspective of mindsets that unite. Hopefully, you've also gained a better understanding of your own perspective as well.

For your Unit 4 Writing Assignment, I would like for you to explore these ideas through that question. Write an argument in response to the prompt that contains the following elemnts:

Hook/Introduction (You're essay should not jump directly in to answering that question. Consider how that question might apply to you, or the world. Consider some way to engage the reader in the topic)
Claim (This is where you'll answer the question. A claim should also introduce how you plan to support your response)
At least 3 Supporting Paragraphs
Your support must directly reference at least 2 stories we've read this year
You may also use personal experience or real world examples as supporting evidence
Counterclaim- Address the other side of the argument. If you believe similarities are more important than differences, spend some time acknowledging why someone may think understanding differences is more important or vice versa. Make sure your counterclaim is followed with a refutation to reinforce your argument.
Conclusion- Try to go beyond just restating your claim and major points. Try to connect your argument to a larger context.
Note: It is important to understand both similarities and differences. The question is asking which one is MORE important. Your essay's tone is done no favors by being wishy-washy. Pick the one you think is more important and defend that stance. If you honestly believe they are equally important, FAKE an opinion. This isn't a legally binding document. You are not forever bound to your choice. This is an exercise meant to evaluate your ability to structure and support an argument. Making an argument starts with taking a side.
