Answer:

Before writing a cause and effect essay/writing, you must take into account the following steps:

1. Make a list of topics (Just write down any topic that comes to mind or if you already have one just start with it).

2. Choose your topic (the best topic to choose is the one you already know something about).

3. Brainstorm to choose cause or effect (make two lists, one for causes and one for effects, write down all the possible causes and effects).

4. Conduct the research (when researching, choose credible sources (sources written by experts on the topic, not personal blogs or unverifiable sources)).

5. Craft your thesis (the thesis statement should answer the question: why should I care about this topic?).

6. Write an outline (the outline for a cause and effect essay depends on the additional instructions your teachers assign but often you have to write a five-paragraph paper in which you include:

  1. Introduction paragraph- where you introduce your topic and state your thesis.
  2. Supporting paragraph 1- where you discuss one idea that supports your thesis .
  3. Supporting paragraph 2- where you discuss a second idea that supports your thesis.
  4. Antithesis paragraph- where you entertain the opposing side’s argument (ex: if you chose global warming, you might write about how some deny its existence).
  5. Conclusion- here you may restate your thesis and present any ideas or thoughts for future research on this topic.

7. Write your first draft (once you’ve done all your research and outline, the first draft should be relatively easy to write).

Good luck!

Answer:

Carefully study your assignment requirements.

Choose the focus: Effects or Causes?

Try to find an example of a similar essay and analyze it.

Select a topic (if you aren't given one).

Gather and process all the relevant information about your topic.

Write down your thesis statement.

Thoroughly prepare a well-structured outline of the essay.

Think about the hook you'll use in the introduction.

Go for logically organized central body paragraphs.

Double check your timeline for a proper causal relationship.

Emphasize that your explanations are the most important ones.

Build up a definite conclusion (shouldn't longer than your introduction).

Make a break to clear your head (from a few hours to a day).

Revise it and ask somebody to check it for vagueness or mistakes.

Double check it for coherence and smooth transitions.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

C)  reviewing her speaking outline for points that could use visual support.

Explanation:

When using a slide for a presentation, only the important points should be highlighted in the slide. Some concepts are more difficult to understand and Letitia would benefit her audience more if she highlighted difficult concepts and made it easier for her audience to understand using visual support.

So when preparing her speech, Letitia should review her outline for points that need visual support to aid understanding.

Read the following passage and answer the question. The general told Rainsford that he should take a knife, that he should wear
Inessa05 [86]

The phrase which must be revised to create parallel structure is, 'To not walk near the quicksand.'

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Parallel structure is a literary device which is often used by writers and poets to create a smooth flow in writing. In parallel structure, same pattern of words are being used to indicate that all the ideas contains the same level of importance.

In the sentence, ‘The general told Rainsford that he should take a knife, that he should wear moccasins, and to not walk near the quicksand’ if we rephrase the last line after conjunction, then the sentence will become a parallel structure.

‘To not walk near the quicksand’ should be rephrased as ‘that he should not walk near the quicksand.’ So the sentence would be ‘The general told Rainsford that he should take a knife, that he should wear moccasins, and that he should not walk near the quicksand.’

In paragraphs 5 through 9, how do the details about the natural setting outside of Mrs. Mallard’s room relate to her emotional s
Alja [10]

Answer and Explanation:

Mrs. Mallard is the main character in Kate Chopin's short story "The Story of an Hour". Louise Mallard has always been a fragile woman whose heart condition may kill her in case she is surprised or shocked. In addition, she has always been a subservient wife, constantly attached and dependent on her husband.

However, something changes inside her when she is told the news of her husband's death. Mrs. Mallard locks herself up in her room to mourn the loss but, while in there, she looks out her open window:

<em>She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of rain was in the air. In the street below a peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which some one was singing reached her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves. </em>

<em>There were patches of blue sky showing here and there through the clouds that had met and piled one above the other in the west facing her window.</em>

<u>The natural setting outside the window represents the new life and spirit Mrs. Mallard is about to discover. The smell of rain, the patches of blue sky here and there, the distant song, they all evoke her own mental state. They all represent the happiness of finding herself free. Spring, specially, always evokes the start of something new - a new chance, a new life. Mrs. Mallard realizes that, without her husband, there is nothing holding her down. She is finally liberated to be herself, to do as she wishes.</u>
