Evidence What evidence from the book is in your body paragraphs? Quotations, Quotations, QUOTATIONS! What evidence from the book is in your body paragraphs? Find a quote from the text to sum it up! Cite it using MLA format: George killed Lennie when he was at his happiest, thinking about the future: “And I get to tend the rabbits” (Steinbeck 105).

Adding Quotations: Tips Can’t find what you’re looking for? ASK! Don’t just slap a quote in your paragraph and call it good! Introduce it by explaining the situation Explain why the quotation supports your thesis Use a comma or colon to introduce the quote

One of the clearest examples of how dialect is used to develop a character’s personality is through Crooks. Steinbeck uses Crooks’s dialect many times to illustrate the fact that he is an outsider as the black stable buck on the ranch. For example, the first time Crooks appears in the book is when he enters the bunkhouse to inform Slim that the tar is ready for the mule’s foot. He pokes his head through the door and states, “Mr. Slim…You told me to warm up tar that mule’s foot. I got it warm…I can do it if you want, Mr. Slim” (Steinbeck 50). By repeating the name “Mr. Slim” so much on this page, one can see how Crooks must adhere to the rules of society for black people at the time. Later in the novella, Lennie enters Crooks’s room in the stable and strikes up a conversation with him that includes many examples of dialect. At one point, Crooks is telling Lennie about his past: “I ain’t a southern negro…I was born right here in California. My old man had a chicken ranch, ‘bout ten acres” (Steinbeck 70). In this example, Crooks’s dialect is very apparent through the words “ain’t” and “’bout” as he begins to open up with Lennie regarding his background. By using the dialect of the time, Steinbeck creates a clear example of the life of a black stable buck.

Sample Counterclaim Refutation Some may feel that living alone for the rest of one’s life would be great. Those with this view are wrong because, as George states, “I seen the guys that go around on the ranches alone. That ain’t no good. They don’t have no fun. After a long time they get mean. They get wantin’ to fight all the time” (Steinbeck 41). Loneliness, instead of providing freedom, seems to make the men irritable and less happy the longer they’re alone.
