The 16 year old who braved thin ice to save a boy from drowning

English

Schach [20]4 years ago
5 0

In the winter of 2011, Kole Devisscher was driving by a stretch of the Red River in Winnipeg, Manitoba, when he noticed a blue jacket floating in the freezing waters. Curious, he backed up his truck for another look to find that a young boy was struggling to get out of a crack in the ice. The 16-year-old used his truck's tow strap to pull the 10-year-old out, but the boy wasn't able to grab the rope because his hands were already turning blue. Devisscher made a loop out of the rope and threw it back into the river, telling the boy to put it around his shoulders. It worked. Devisscher was honored with an award for bravery, which he said was "pretty awesome." When asked about his heroic act he said only that "I hope someone else would do that for me if I was in the same situation."

Xelga [282]

Explanation:

I want to help you because I know how hard it is to catch up when you are falling behind. To be completely honest I would love to do the whole thing for you but I have my own school work to do as well. I am answering this question in my free time and I am basically going to give you a very detailed and somewhat filled-out outline. I'm also not completely the entire assignment because I find it important that people on here do the majority of their assignments themselves. Also, there are no "informational paragraphs" above.

Answer:

Introduction/Hook:

While several teenagers will make the argument that social media is the greatest thing to ever happen, it has its downsides.

Claim:

Social media has a number of negatives that come with it.

Counterclaim:

Social media may not always be the heart of the younger generation or the thing that makes technology so technological.

Body Paragraph:

For some teens, it boosts their confidence levels but for others, it takes theirs away. It keeps teens on their phones all the time instead of them focusing on in-person activities and interacting with other people.

I'm don't know if this is what you wanted but I hope it helps!

Have a lovely day!
