Question

A student is writing an opinion essay for his teacher about his favorite season. Read the draft paragraph from the essay and complete the task that follows. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------First of all, I love cold weather and snow. When it snows in our community, all of the children head to the giant hill behind the elementary school and spend hours sledding. In addition to the cold weather and snow, I also enjoy the slower pace of life in those months filled with shorter days. People don't rush around so much when winter sets in. They seem to hibernate in a way, like animals do. Finally, I love winter the most because our house has the best old­ fashioned fireplace, and we use it every day so we don't depend just on electric heat.-------------------------------------------------------------- The beginning of the student’s essay does not state his opinion. Write an opening paragraph that states the opinion and explains what the topic is about. *

Answer 1

In my opinion Winter is my favorite season because of the snow and the icy weather. Another reason I like the season Winter is because I get to cuddle up in a blanket by the fire and watch a Christmas movie, and finally I like Winter because I get to miss school and sleep in.
