In "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly, the narrator expresses how she is an intuitive teenage girl; she knows the trends, and she is up-to-date with the world. She also immediately insists that "I’m not so really dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn’t". Not only does she describe what she should and shouldn't wear, when she arrives at the skating rink she describes the sky and her surroundings, implying that she is highly detail oriented.
After she states twice that she was not a "dumb" girl, and giving reasons why she wasn't, we realize she was trying to reassure herself of the fact. All logic is out the window once she mets with her love interest, and she feels dumb for believing that he would call her; "for all of a sudden I know, what the stars knew all the time ---- he’ll never, never call --- never".
<u>Explanation:</u>
Note, an opinion essay is one where you clearly state your opinion about the subject matter been discussed. It involves providing in writing substantial facts about why you hold such views.
<em>It has been observed that students who live on campus are more likely to perform better than those who did not.</em>
<em>There are several reasons why this is believed to be so, let us consider some of them.</em>
- <em>proximity advantage to school facilities:</em><em> Because of the nearness to the school facility, it is less stressful for students to arrive on campus for lectures. They may tend to have higher class attendance numbers than others coming off-campus.</em>
- <em>social and academic interactions in their dormitories:</em><em> students have easy access to other students who can assist them with their academic challenges, and as well a feeling of belonging.</em>
- <em>safety:</em><em> usually there may be more sense of security staying on campus than going off-campus.</em>
The author means that when people try to be fair, they will find that they are better with opinions and not facts.
