Your paper should have the form of the one illustrated here. It should contain a thesis, use examples from the text, and have a separate page of Works Cited. Follow MLA style when you want to give credit in the text of your paper for quotes or other references to published sources.
For a good, short, online guide to usage and effective writing, refer to William Strunk's Elements of Style.
