excerpt 2
The minimum age for obtaining a driver's license should be lowered from sixteen to fifteen of free year olds can drive with a spera
driver's permit why not just lower the legal age for a license to fifteen? Since most fifteen year olds are getting ready to get a way they

would be less of a need to have school buses. Students could start driving themselves to school a year earlier

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

you have so far written an informative essay (if you haven't then you might want to do that. look back at the lesson for guidance) answer the question but is it the best conclusion it can be? does it properly summarize the main subtopics of your essay? does it state in one or two sentences the “so what” of your topic. if your topic was abraham lincoln, your essay shouldn’t be just about abraham lincoln. it should answer, “so what about abraham lincoln? ”

revise your conclusion

hope this you!
