Answer 1

The question above is intended to assess the ability to write an essay and critically analyze a text. For that reason, it's not right for me to write an essay for you, but I'll show you how to write it.

First of all, you should know that a synthesis essay is an essay that shows the analysis of several different interpretations in a text. The objective is to make a synthesis, that is, a critical summary of all these interpretations.

For this reason, to write your essay, you should read all the sources you have, as well as research other articles and texts that can help your analysis.

In this analysis, you will highlight the most important and effective parts, to use as evidence and basis for your essay.

After that, you can write your essay as follows:

• Introduction: Introduce the subject that will be presented in the text, show the basic information of that subject and present your position on it. This placement is your thesis statement.

• Body: Present at least two paragraphs. In these paragraphs, you must present your analysis and insights about the texts you have read and the research you have done. Show all the relevant arguments and information and present evidence to support it all.

• Conclusion: Summarize all your arguments, reinforce your thesis statement, and show your final thought about the analysis.
