While you read Great Expectations there are sure to be sentences, paragraphs, or sections of entire chapters that you don't quite understand due to complicated or confusing diction and syntax. Find a specific passage in this week's reading that you don't fully comprehend and ask a question to be answered by your classmates through comments. Cite the passage with chapter and page number and specifically state what about the passage you do not understand. Make sure your question is clear and include enough of the passage (directly and correctly quoted) so that your classmates can comment an appropriate answer in response.
Make sure that your question is clear and significant. It can either be literal (something that can be answered by deciphering the text) or interpretive (related to motive of author or character.) You will be evaluated on the depth and thought you put into the question - show that you do understand most of what you read by the type of question you pose. Your questions should cover something from this week's reading: chapters 26-35.
Post and comment a response on a classmate's blog, including an attempt to answer the question, by Friday, March 12.

my blog link on your page still says my most recent blog is from 4 months ago, and when i click it it comes up with my page and my most recent blogs, but i'm worried that my recent blogs don't show up when others click it. at least my essay group said that (they might have just been lazy though and not checked) but either way, i was wondering if you could help.
