Quindlen uses many different types of evidence throughout the argument to support her claim, such as examples, facts, statistics
ICE Princess25 [194]
She gives us examples from literature and her childhood. She fondly remembers the summers of her childhood, full of "looking into the middle distance" and "staring at the tedious blue sky." Then she describes how different summer is for kids these days, making the claim that "our children are as over scheduled as we are, and that is saying something." Quindlen later supports her opinion that kids these days have less downtime than kids in the past by referring to a study from the University of Michigan, which says that "in the last 20 years American kids have lost about four unstructured hours a week." Quindlen goes on to claim that the over scheduling of kids is the result of the over scheduling of parents. Again, she supports her claim by citing the story of presidential aide Karen Hughes, who reporters celebrated for her practice of eating one meal a week with her son. By using evidence and supporting her claims, Quindlen effectively argues that kids these days are losing valuable downtime and carefree summers as a result of the busy lives of their parents.

Write an essay on "Do You Agree with Capital Punishment? 
Virty [35]
<span>      Many people believe that those, who commit the most cruel crimes ought to be sentenced to death. I understand their point of view and <u>I fully agree with this statement. </u></span> <u> </u> <span><span>

</span><span>      There are obvious reasons of sentencing the murderers to death. To start with, if they kill someone, they do not feel anything. Their only one purpose is to assassinate without a reason , just like that. It makes them feel blissful. They are called psychopaths.   What’s more, if they will be caught and sent to prison there is a tremendous peril that in years to come they will be set free and start murdering  again. </span></span>

<span><span>      Furthermore, in the entire world there are many mentally disturbed people, who kidnap  others, only  to torture them and after having finished it kill them in cold blood. </span></span>   <span>               

      On the other hand, some people may maintain that capital punishment is highly improper as for instance a wrong person could be caught or someone could have been set up, they, however fail to notice that everything is precisely checked.  </span>                

      Taking everything into account, although some people might declare otherwise, I personally believe that there is no other way to stop the criminals from their acts and applying the death penalty is indispensible.
