In this exercise, you have to write an essay giving your point of view about where young offenders should be sent.

An essay should have an introduction, a body where you state why you think what you think and a conclusion where you give the essay a closure and you reaffirm what you stated before.

In this case, you need to take into account writing about:

1. Being punished for a crime. You need to explain if you think the punishment should be being sent to an army camp or to prison. However, you can even discuss if punishment is okay or if there should be another penalization after a young person commits a crime. Since it is an opinion essay, you can decide what you want to say regarding this specific item.

2. Learning life skills. Here you might want to discuss what place is better to learn life skills or whether they are able to learn any life skills there or not, also, you can discuss how young offenders should learn life skills.

3. You have to write something that has not been said before in the essay about the topic. For example, you can tell your opinion regarding young offenders being in the same place as adult offenders who have been in prison for a long time.

In conclusion, it is up to you what you want to write in the essay but you need to be aware of the <u>essay structure</u> and also <u>writing about what you are being asked.</u>

“Breathe slowly and deeply and listen.
enot [183]

The lines talk about an individual allowing himself to be free, acting, and thinking the way he wants.

<h3>How can we understand the meaning of the lines?</h3>
  • Reading the lines.
  • Interpreting the context of lines.
  • Analyzing the use of words.
  • Interpreting the message and the subject.

The four lines represent communication between the reader and the author. In the first line, we can see that the author wants to stimulate the reader's relaxation. In the second line, the author asks the reader to listen and understand their thoughts and emotions.

Continuing, in the fourth line, the author reinforces the idea of feeling the universe around him and the fourth line ends the author's order for the reader to act the way he wants.

Therefore, we can see that the lines have a message about being free and comfortable with yourself. This message is the theme of the lines and represents their meaning.
