Question

A trip to the ocean can be a relaxing escape from the everyday pressures of life. A sailboat glistening on the horizon provides a mental escape to far away places. The rhythm of the ocean beating against the sand is sedating music to a troubled mind. A slow, gentle breeze can relax your tensions. You should always be careful to avoid overexposure to the sun at the beach.

Answer 1

2. Basic Spelling and Grammar. Proper Nouns. Sentence Structure. Consistency. 

A. A phrase or opinion that is overused and betrays a lack of original thought.
B. "The theme of the director's latest movie is cliche."

4. Two types of prewriting include drawing and freewriting.

Though drawing for a story is usually used for films or animated media, it can be useful for visualizing what you want to happen in that scene.

When you free write noting you say is wrong, you just sit and write what comes to mind.
