Write a rough draft narrative essay about overcoming a challenge

Everyone faces challenges of different sorts in one’s life. I too had to face many challenges. One of them was my desire to win gold medal for school in inter-school athletic meet. I had tried many times but to no avail .
I clearly remember the defeat in the final 100 meter race last year during the inter-school athletic meet. I had to face lots of embarrassment and shame for not being able to win the gold medal for my school!
I had resolved that I would win the medal at any cost in the next year’s championship. So I had trained very hard. I did not miss any practice. I went on long runs to increase my stamina. I would sprint at the fastest speed possible. And out of my hard-work emerged fast running skills. The confidence to beat all my rivals grew stronger with each passing day.
And then the annual inter-school athletic meet arrived. The day I had to run, the entire stadium was packed to capacity. My teachers, principal, students, and my parents sat in the front rows to see me run to victory.
As I took position on the track, I was highly nervous. But then I calmed my mind. And then at the starting pistol I ran like bullet. I won the race with record time. I created a new national record in the 100 meter race. I was given standing ovation with thundering applause.
Receiving the gold medal from the Sports Minister I felt so proud and that is how I realized that courage and hope can help me overcome any major mishap or problem in life. If we hold on to our dreams and keep working hard for them, one day we will surely succeed

The Rise of Zeus
Alja [10]
<span>The passage has a lot of inaccuracies. Zeus was never known as the most powerful god, he was simply king of the gods because he started the war against the Titans called the Titanomachy. Initially the Primordial gods were in power, until Gaia (first deity to ever be born) went to her children and asked them who would help her get rid of their father because she was mad he trapped their children, the Hecatonchires, in Tartarus. Only Cronus volunteered. He castrated his dad, Uranus, and then took over as king of the gods. When his wife (and sister) Rhea was pregnant with the first child, Hestia, he received a prophecy saying a son would overthrow him like he did his father. He therefore swallowed every child that Rhea bore him (including the female goddesses in case they had a son that could be the one to overthrow him). Rhea, when pregnant with Zeus, went to her mother and asked for his protection. She hid him in a cave on Crete where he was raised by a goat named Amalthea. When he was an adult, he returned to his father and used a mixture to have him throw up his siblings: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades & Poseidon, all full-grown by this point. They took up home on Mt. Olympus and waged the 10-year long Titanomachy. Not all of the Titans stood by Cronus. Tethys, for example, helped Zeus. After 10-years of fighting, Zeus' uncles, the Cyclopses, made him his legendary thunderbolt which he used to free his other uncles, the Hecatonchires, from the depths of Tartarus. Using their 100 hands each (there were 3 of them), the Hecatonchires launched massive boulders at the Titans and sent them down into the depths of Tartarus, where they remained for a long time until Zeus released them. But at that point he had long been king of the gods and they settled in the background of Greek Mythology and were never really heard from again. </span>

When note-taking during research, what is the best answer for the items should you keep notes about?
OleMash [197]

Research can be tricky because you need to plan.  You must know what your topic is and what your stance is on that topic.  You can then create a chart that has your thesis statement in one box, and your topics in three different boxes thereby as you research, you can put the information you find in those boxes.  For example:  Let's say you are researching the effects of smoking.  Your thesis statement would say something like: Smoking is harmful for your health because it can stunt your growth, cause cancer, and cost several hundred dollars a year.  

Then as you research, you would note supporting details (facts) for how is 1. stunts your growth, 2. causes cancer, and 3. costs money.  

So....you should keep notes about your topics for your body paragraphs.
