How do I construct a DBQ? (document bassed question)

Deffense [45]

Step 1: Answer each question in Part A.
Carefully read or view each document relating to the DBQ question, and answer the question that follows each document. Use factual information and base your answer to each question on the specific document to which it is related, and be sure to compose each answer using complete sentences.

Step 2: Compose a thesis statement.
Read the task section in of the DBQ essay question and analyze it in order to figure out what it is asking you to do. Key words used in the task may include:

Discuss means "to make observations about something using facts, reasoning, and argument; to present in some detail."

Describe means "to illustrate something in words or tell about it."

Show means "to point out; to set forth clearly a position or idea by stating it and giving data to support it."

Explain means "to make plain or understandable; to give reasons for or causes of; to show the logical development or relationships of" (Global Studies Regents, June, 1997).

Once you understand what the task is asking you to write about, compose a thesis statement that addresses these issues. For example, the sample DBQ below contains a task that could be reworded to form a thesis statement such as:

"Many societies have held different viewpoints regarding the process of governmental decision-making and about the role of citizens in the political decision-making process. Therefore, several types of political systems have evolved over time, from those that are controlled absolutely as well as some that follow a democratic tradition. Regardless of the type of government, there are obvious advantages and disadvantages involved in both types of political systems."

Step 3: Organize the essay.
Organize the information that you want to use in your essay through the use of an outline. During this pre-writing step, you should brainstorm as many facts as possible that could be used in your essay. Also make sure that you are addressing the task as well as the requirements from the rubric.

Step 5: Write the introduction.
A. Revisit the historical context and determine if you can use part or all of this statement in your introduction.
B. Insert your thesis statement from step three.
C. If your thesis does not address the body paragraphs that will follow, compose a sentence that briefly introduces each topic.

Step 6: Write the body paragraphs.
Write the first body paragraph. Be sure to include all of the following components:
topic sentence, supporting evidence in the body sentences, and a closing sentence. Follow this same format as you write the additional body paragraphs. Compose additional paragraphs if necessary in order to completely answer the essay question.

Be sure to use most of the documents provided by the teacher in order to provide evidence which proves your
thesis statement, and to meet the criteria in the rubric to earn a full credit for your essay.

Step 7: Write the conclusion.
Summarize the subject of the essay. You can often do this by restating the question in a different way. Explain what you concluded about the essay question. Summarize how the information in the body of your essay proves your point.

How did the social order of people in Why did the first settlements in China begin along the Huang River? Han dynasty reflect Co

JulsSmile [24]

.The social theory of authors like Karl Marx, Émile Durkheim, Talcott Parsons and Jürgen Habermas proposed different explanations of what the social order is and what is its real basis. For Marx It is the economic structure (level of development of the means of production and production relations specific to a mode of production) which is at the base of a social order. For Durkheim is the set of shared social norms. For Parsons It is the set of social institutions that regulate the structure of orientations for action, which in turn is based on the structure of cultural values. For Habermas It is the whole of all the above, to which the communicative action adds up.

.The river Huang is considered in China as "the Mother River" by its influence on the development of the Chinese population and culture. It is believed to be the river that allowed the growth of China's population. The Huanghe crosses the whole country, with an influx of immense water, we can say that the river Huang has been fundamental for the history of China and the development of its civilization. In addition, the sandy influx of the river Huang continues to create land by flowing into the sea of Bohai in Shandong province, increasing the surface of arable land year after year.

Thousands of years ago, China's population and economy was based on agriculture and fishing to survive. The areas covered by the river Huang were then the most fertile and the most appropriate for life. Since antiquity, the river Huang has always marked the political and economic center of China. It was in its surroundings where the most powerful towns or cities were founded. Thanks to its waters, neighboring societies could feed their cattle, irrigate their crops and have an infinite supply of water.

The Huanghe River or Yellow River was the origin of what we know today as the civilization of the Huanghe River, which has its origins in the Qin and Han dynasties (period from 221 BC to 220 A.D.). For more than a thousand years, the civilization of the Yellow River gave rise to some of the most important inventions in history, such as gunpowder, Chinese Traditional medicine, martial arts, silk, paper, printing, among others. All these Chinese traditions that today are famous all over the world had their origin and their birth thanks to the waters of the river Huang.

.Yes, the Han dynasty reflect confusian values .During the Han Dynasty, their kings adopted the teachings of the Great philosophers of antiquity, Lao-Tse and Confucius. The Government developed well, achieving territorial expansion. Education and writing were promoted in the newly invented rice paper. A great exchange of merchandise was promoted along the Silk Road, which goes from the Pacific Ocean to Persia and India. China officially became a Confucian state and prospered domestically: agriculture, handmade products and trade flourished, and the population reached 50 million.

Which two events proved that Middle Eastern nations could threaten the world's oil supply? 1.The closing of the Suez Canal by Eg

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

1.The closing of the Suez Canal by Egypt in 1956.

2.The OPEC oil embargo in 1973.

Explanation:

Most of the world's oil reserves and supply come from the Middle East. It is estimated that about 64.5 % of the world's oil supply is from the Middle East nations, making it an important aspect of the world's crude oil supply.

If these reserves or supplies were to be stopped or banned by the OPEC nations, or any of these majority supplying nations were to stop their export, then there will be a vast 'disaster' or rather 'crisis' in the nations that depend on these supplies. So, events such as the 1956 closing of the Suez Canal by Egypt or the OPEC oil embargo of 1973 are proof that the Middle East nations could threaten the world's oil supply. 

Thus, the correct answers are options 1 and 2.
