WRITING to SOURCES Expository Writing Prompt: How do the character traits of Apollo or Phaethon drive the story to its tragic conclusion? Choose either Phaethon or Apollo to write about. Be sure to:
• Create a topic sentence that states the character’s qualities and how those qualities drive the plot of the story.
• Use precise language to express your ideas clearly; avoid wordiness and unnecessary repetition.
• Include textual evidence, such as quotations and details from the myth, to support your ideas about the character’s tragic traits.
