Man with enormous wings assignment
I think that the old man with enormous wings is just a regular person who happens to have wings. The old man proves that he is no angel by showing that he has no supernatural powers except the power of flight. When the old man is locked up in the chicken coop he becomes sick, and thereby proves his mortality. Based on the fact that I do not believe the old man to be an angel, I think the story means that people should not associate things which they cannot understand with the supernatural.

2) Writing that has enough detail to illustrate that you’ve read the homework
3) Depth of thought, either in asking insightful questions(not rhetorical ones) or insightful comments that illustrate complexity of the text
4) Evidence from the text that supports your insights and not plot summary
5) You avoid summarizing the plot, rather use the plot to illustrate your point.
