Changes around us cause us to act differently. Some people don't act well around changes and others do. I personally don't act well around changes. Different causes and affects can make people act different. For example moving is a change and some people will act happy and positive where as others would be sad or angry.
Answer:
Tom Joad gets paroled from McAlester jail after being convicted of self-defense murder. Hitchhiking to his Oklahoma home,
The Joad's' unwillingness to give up is exceptional. Steinbeck underlines the need to preserve self-respect to thrive spiritually. This is clear by the novel's finale. Noah, Connie, and Tom have left the family; Rose of Sharon had a stillborn baby; the family has no food or job. This event (Chapter 30) shows that the Joad's have not lost their understanding of human life's worth.

Answer and Explanation:
I believe the mistake in the original sentence is caused by a dangling modifier. Let's take a look at it:
<u>Preparing our dinner</u>, the smell of the chicken made Ben hungry.
The underlined portion is the modifier. Notice the sentence sounds strange, even ambiguous. <u>Usually, the modifier comes close to the noun it intends to modify. But, in this case, the closest noun is "smell". There is no way for the smell to be "preparing our dinner". </u>That is what makes the sentence sound so strange.
<u>To correct it, we need to change the modifier a bit in order to clarify to whom it refers. It could be "me", the speaker, or it could very well be Ben the one cooking dinner.</u> Take a look at the options and see how much clearer they sound:
- While I was preparing our dinner, the smell of the chicken made Ben hungry.
- While Ben was preparing our dinner, the smell of the chicken made him hungry.
So the introduction paragraph would introduce the audience on what you're writing about. Like you could give your thoughts on it, etc. It would also introcude the main topics of your body paragraphs (kinda). The last sentence is either a transition or the Thesis.
Then there's a body paragraph, where you would focus on one thing and write about it. (For example, one body paragraph may be about glitches that self driving cars may have, etc). You would then cite a quote or use some form of evidence (from credible sites, don't use wikipedia lol.. also look at mla citations on purdue owl).
Next you would write a counter claim (I know it's confusing, but you write about something opposing your claims and such)... In this case, it could be about how self driving cars could be more accurate than human drivers, etc. If you want to go the extra mile, you could cite a quote in there ;) (mla format, go search it up on websites like Purdue owl).
Finally a conclusion, reflecting on what you have been writing about, etc.
(I made this guide really simple, as these prompts don't look like they ask for much, and arent as complicated compared to college level writing.)
