To start your research, select an issue that made the news in the past year and that relates to one of these topics: science and technology, the environment, national politics, or public health. Consider your initial views on that issue. Next, begin a basic initial
research phase to become better informed about the events and people involved with that issue. You should reference two to
three resources during this relatively brief research phase. As you research the issue, mentally note the opinions that you form
about the issue. You might find that you want to refine or modify your opinions on the issue as you proceed.
After you select an issue and conduct basic research, begin gathering and organizing sources to form a thesis statement that is
based on your opinion and answers the writing prompt directly. You will also use this research to write your paper in the next task.
Take time to think about the purpose of your research C. When you find a source of information, evaluate how useful it is by
considering these questions:
• Who authored the source?
• What is the purpose of the source?
• When was the source written?
• How will this source help to form, support, or refine your opinion?
The following web pages contain additional information about locating and assessing resources:
• Locating and Assessing Sources e
• Evaluating Information on the Internet
Identify at least five sources before you work on your thesis statement; these sources can be online, in print, or in some other
medium. You can use both primary and secondary sources in this activity. Remember, a primary source contains an eyewitness's
account of an event (e. g., a letter or diary) or actual data from an experiment or a survey that the authors conducted. A secondary
source summarizes or synthesizes information from primary sources (e. g., a textbook). You may use relevant resources that you
encountered in the lessons in this unit, such as the articles and videos on climate change.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmithâ€™s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near byâ€”it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience andâ€”he knew not whyâ€”apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
