Stells [14]
An introductory paragraph must and must not contain these things:

Must-
1. Hook/Grabber - Interesting fact, rhetorical question (not recommended), statistic, or just anything (in this case) relating to what your essay is going to talk about that may make the reader more interested. I suggest that you try and make this a little more interesting, such as something relating to Elie and the holocaust to keep the reader interested.
2. Overview of Support - Write what you will further explain in the next paragraphs so that the reader actually knows what they're getting into. It is vital for any article or essay because it helped ease into the writing without any confusion. You should also include shortened reasoning of why your statement is correct/to justify your claim.

Must Not-
1. Very long, dragged out sentences - This will obviously bore the reader. Long and dragged out/descriptive intros will make the reader disinterested and possibly just outright explain what the entire essay is about, which is also a bad sign because it could be considered repetition (which, yes, consistency is key, but seeing the same thing over and over constantly may annoy the reader). You also want to avoid doing this because it takes up more time than it needs to -- remember this is just an introduction!
2. Anything off-topic or unrelated to what your essay/article is about - This means not talking about yourself (especially if it is an informative essay) or talking about your family and the  Holocaust (as an example, but not accurate), (etc.) when that is not the main focus of the essay.

This is about all I can think of for now, if you have any further questions, please PM me. Hope I helped and good luck!

Drag the tiles to the boxes to form correct pairs.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

madness -My homicidal maniac is of a peculiar kind. I shall have to invent a new classification

for him, and call him a zoöphagous (life-eating) maniac; what he desires is to absorb

as many lives as he can, and he has laid himself out to achieve it in a cumulative way.

He gave many flies to one spider and many spiders to one bird, and then wanted

a cat to eat the many birds.

romantic love-Besides, it was all so confused; it seemed only a moment from his coming into the room

till both his arms were round me, and he was kissing me. I am very, very happy, and

I don’t know what I have done to deserve it. I must only try in the future to show that

I am not ungrateful to God for all His goodness to me in sending to me such a lover,

such a husband, and such a friend.

rationality versus superstition-She saw, I suppose, the doubt in my face, for she put the rosary round my neck,

and said, “For your mother’s sake,” and went out of the room. I am writing up this

part of the diary whilst I am waiting for the coach, which is, of course, late; and

the crucifix is still round my neck. Whether it is the old ladys fear, or the many

ghostly traditions of this place, or the crucifix itself, I do not know, but I am not feeling

nearly as easy in my mind as usual.

Explanation:

trust me bro.
