Following are two passages from Florence Nightingale’s Notes on Nursing:

Passage 1

Now the medical man who sees the patient only once a day or even only once or twice a week, cannot possibly tell this without the assistance of the patient himself, or of those who are in constant observation on the patient. The utmost the medical man can tell is whether the patient is weaker or stronger at this visit than he was at the last visit. I should therefore say that incomparably the most important office of the nurse, after she has taken care of the patient’s air, is to take care to observe the effect of his food, and report it to the medical attendant. (1860, Section VII, para.14)

Passage 2

To be “in charge” is certainly not only to carry out the proper measures yourself but to see that everyone else does so too; to see that no one either willfully or ignorantly thwarts or prevents such measures. It is neither to do everything yourself nor to appoint a number of people to each duty, but to ensure that each does that duty to which he is appointed. This is the meaning which must be attached to the word by (above all) those “in charge” of sick, whether of numbers or of individuals. (1860, Section III, para.25)

Following are three observations about this sentence. Match each observation with the kind of understanding of grammar that might produce it.

a. traditional/prescriptive grammar

b. structural grammar

c. transformational grammar

1.           

The sentence exhibits the following structure:

N(oun) P(hrase) + be verb + Adj(ective) P(hrase)

2.           

This is a correct sentence. It would be wrong to write The boy is anxious to please. Anxious and eager mean two different things.

3.           

The sentence exhibits the following structure:

N(oun) P(hrase) + be verb + Adj(ective) P(hrase).

However, native speakers of English know that the deep structure of the sentence, as opposed to this surface structure, is radically different from a sentence that looks superficially the same:

The boy is easy to please.

Following the debate activity that we did in class on the validity of Trophy Hunting, we will continue albeit individually and in writing.  I want you to write a coherent essay that 1) describes the problem or issue being addressed, 2) discusses what the solution being offered aims to accomplish, 3) presents your view on this solution, and in your reply to a classmate 4) provide your reaction to the arguments and claims made from the opposite position of yours.

To restate the question we debated, “Is the practice of commercialized trophy hunting a valid means for improving the conservation outcomes of endangered or otherwise threatened animal populations?” 

I want you to use some of the articles I posted in the earlier announcement, found here: https://asu.instructure.com/courses/11125/discussion_topics/309349.  But by all means feel free to supplement your essay with facts and figures you may encounter through additional research into this question.  I want to see a well formulated argument in favor of or in opposition to this solution, but one that still addresses what those who may disagree with you would say, not just a litany of your side’s opinions.
