WILL GET BRAINLLEST When reading a piece of writing, one of the components of the piece that helps to guide you through the piece is the thesis statement. This is the main idea of the entire piece, or the point that the author is trying to prove. (You typically only find these in non-fiction pieces, but they may occasionally show up in fictional pieces.) In order to write strong thesis statements, you have to practice. The two main components for a good thesis statement are the subject (what you are talking about) and your opinion (how you feel about it). Of course, we have to do this in a professional way, so you can’t just write something like, “Dogs are cool.” Let’s imagine that you are writing a research essay about how the brain works. (That’s a hint, by the way!) What type of thesis statement could you write? Here is one example. “The brain is amazing because of its capacity to remember things.” or “Our psychological processes are incredibly complicated.” Each of these has a subject (brain remembering things, or psychological processes) and an opinion (amazing or incredibly complicated). Now, your task today is to create 5 thesis statements. I’d suggest that you write them about the brain to get a head start on your big project, or you can pick any subject you know something about. The most important thing is that they have a subject and an opinion! Write these 5 thesis statements and submit them to your instructor.

What excerpt from a student essay maintains the most objective tone

As usual the nurse has trouble getting to the point what does juliet think happened before she learns the truth?

Read the excerpt from the land. in the late afternoon i did the same, but all the time i was on the stallion, i was aware that mitchell was watching me. he had appeared on the edge of the woods and had just stood there watching ghost wind and me as we went round and round the meadow. finally, on one of our turns past him, he said: "s'pose you thinkin' you a real somebody 'cause you can ride that stallion." i looked down at mitchell and stopped, knowing that despite our understanding, he was itching for a fight with me. now, i don't know what possessed me in that moment to say the next thing i did. maybe i was feeling guilty that because i was my daddy's son, i could ride ghost wind. maybe it was that, but it wasn't out of fear i said what i said. i no longer was afraid of mitchell. "you want to ride him? " i asked. mitchell took a step backward. it was obvious he hadn't expected me to say that. "you know i can't ride him," he said. "your white daddy'd kill me." "you want to ride him? " i asked again. mitchell looked at the stallion, then at me. "so, what if i do? " what intrinsic motivation does the author most likely intend the reader to infer from the passage? paul is motivated by his need to have mitchell praise his riding skills. mitchell is motivated by his need to have paul praise his riding skills. paul is motivated by jealousy and wishes he had free time like mitchell. mitchell is motivated by jealousy and wishes he could ride the horse.
