Read the following nonfiction narrative and answer the questions below. Drip, Drip 1986 It happened in math class. 7th grade mat

h was definitely NOT my favorite class. I had Mrs. Fifer, and she was the quintessential math teacher – hair in a bun, glasses on a chain that she wore low on her nose. I was terrified of her. I was wearing white pants that day. I loved those white pants; they had loops on the side like carpenter jeans, extra pockets and pleats. Yes, I knew you weren’t supposed to wear white pants after Labor Day, but I was a rebel. We were taking a test, and that meant we weren’t allowed to leave our desks. This was a hard and fast rule, and there was no way I was going to break it; however, as I was taking my test, I noticed my nose was running a lot. I was constantly sniffing. Then, a drop of blood fell on my test. “Oh no,” I thought to myself. “I’m having one of my nosebleeds.” My nosebleeds were legendary in my house. They were not your average nosebleed; mine were like someone turned the faucet on high and walked away. I put my left hand over my nose with the hopes that I could contain it until after math. Christa, who sat in the desk across from me, looked at me with a, “What is happening to you?” expression on her face. I just looked down and tried to continue my test, but my nose was having none of that. Apparently, covering my nose with my hand was like putting a stopper on a garden hose; there’s only so much pressure it can take before the water busts through. I think you get the idea. My white pants and test looked like a crime scene. Needless to say, Mrs. Fifer sent me to the office and wondered why I had waited so long. I looked at her, with her severe bun and low-hanging glasses, mumbled something and took off to the office. 7th grade math continued to be my least favorite class.

Anyone can help on how to write an 500+ words essay please?
laiz [17]

Answer:

ofc, here's some pro tips in general that'll work for any subject, if you inform me on the subject i could probably go deeper into it.

Explanation:

1. Always stay on the main topic. Repeat it as much as you want, as much as you need too! If it's about English or History, make sure give you direct years and dates that'll fill up the paper more.

2. Make sure you give multiple and factual details. Go all out! Reword things, search topics, do as much as you need to to fill up that document.

3. Give fun facts. Fun facts are an amazing way to take up more space on a paper. Fun facts not only bring people in, but also can quickly get the job done.

4. Don't make too many paragraphs. On my 500+ worded essay, I made 5 paragraphs and left it at that, I advise you to do the same. I have 5 different things going on in each paragraph so it's not the same dandy thing, but make sure if you take that route that you're still talking about the main topic of your essay. Don't get sidetracked!

5. Try to use 2 words with one meaning (like how people use words like "helping-hand" put a space between those if you're typing it so it'll register as 2 words, or make professional and long words to make it look like a larger sentence. Yes it still counts as one word technically, but hey ya might get some extra points!

Really hope this helped, and I could help a ton more if you need, just reply to this and I'll see what I can do :)))
