- start off with an introduction that will capture the reader, such as a shocking statistic or a sad story (example: 60,000 people die from lung cancer per year, or, Micheal Adams, a young NHL hockey player and a heavy smoker, died from lung cancer at only 38/ or you can reveal how children exposed to second hand smoking or have parents that smoked while the baby was still in the womb have a much higher risk of being born with a disability or with severe asthma.

-explain the pros and cons of smoking, but try to highlight the cons, such as saying “many people smoke to relieve stress, but smoking will actually lead to bigger problems later on in life

-make sure your data is accurate and precise. Try to obtain the most recent data possible (like not a study from 10 years ago)

- even though you are trying to convince people not to smoke,never bash or hate on people who smoke or kids of people who smoke, especially in your essay. Nicotine is a difficult addiction to get over and there are many reasons someone can start using cigarettes. Be kind in your essay and describe how difficult it must be to live with this addiction or have family members that are addicted

- conclude your essay by restating your introduction paragraph using different words. Don’t start any new ideas or elaborate any old ones. Remind the reader what the purpose of your essay was.

I hope this helped!! Good luck friend! :))

How did the Little Rock Nine help bring about change beyond Central High School? please help asap. This is for school

ira [324]

They were kind of the “trial run” for integration. They caused a message to be sent to the public that integration was happening and the public would accept it, and if they didn’t accept it the government would quite literally send the military to back up the law and new way of doing things.
After the Little Rock Nine began attending a previously whites-only school, it was made VERY explicitly clear that integration was here to stay and nothing would change that.
Hope this helps.

It was raining hard as Maria walked down the street. She felt cold and wet and was worried about being late.

It was raining cats and dogs as Maria strolled down the street. She could feel the rain droplets as sharp glass pieces hitting her chilled face and numb hands even in the biting cold but what killed her inside was being late at that peculiar time.
