Compare and Contrast: What scholastic habits among men and women lead to differences in their academic performances? 3. Argumentative: Is universal health care an unnecessary tax burden on the self-employed? Introduction - 3 STEP Intro: Creating interest > presenting the subject > stating thesis STEP ONE: Attention Catching Device (first sentence): An interesting or entertaining statement or question at the beginning of an essay that draws the reader’s attention and relates directly to the subject of the essay. Examples of Attention Catching Device: 1. Definition – Create an original definition of a relevant term or concept. (Ex. Democracy is a form of government in which power is given to and exercised by the people. This may be true in theory, but ….(lead reader to your thesis).) 2. Anecdote - A brief (half-paragraph) story that leads to your thesis statement. Note: This technique works best with narratives and works less well with more fact based papers. Ex.

...Grammar notes: relative clauses Definition A relative clause is a part of a sentence beginning with a relative pronoun (although this pronoun can be omitted in certain cases). For example: The company where I worked is called International Enterprises Plc. The man who went into the baker's bought a loaf of bread. My sister, who lives near London, is coming to visit me soon. Basic relative pronouns The relative pronoun you use depends on the thing you're talking about. Generally speaking, the most basic ones are these: for people for things for places for reasons for times who/that which/that where why when Who, which and that cannot be used indiscriminately. That can only be used in defining relative clauses. Trickier relative pronouns Four relative pronouns often seem to confuse people, but they're easy to use too. WHICH This can be used to refer to the whole part of the sentence that went before. Usually a pronoun refers to a noun, but this refers to more. For example: I've broken my leg, which means I can't walk. I've still got some money left, which is surprising. WHOM This is hardly ever used in spoken English, and not often in written English. It sounds very formal to most people. If you're going to use it at all, then only use it after prepositions. Even so, there's usually another less formal way to say the same thing. For example: The woman to whom he was talking is his sister. The woman that he was talking to is his sister. WHOSE This is used to show...

...science and technology. This advancement is to make life easy and to increase human comfort at home and at work and I would like to be an integral part of such betterment. For this, research would be of prime importance with hands on experience in real time Applications accompanied by in-depth knowledge of the subject. Technology, today, means power in the widest sense and merely the power of mind. And it is this power potential that has given it the status it now enjoys. It was this fascination that led to my interest in Technology, in general. And in this context I would like to accomplish my master’s degree in Computer Science. A technologist’s job is one that requires a lot of discipline and so does its study. A person studying to become a technologist, along with the ability, requires dedication and perseverance. None of these, however, is possible without passion for the subject. I have true passion for Computer Science which gives me the determination to dedicate myself completely to its study. In-depth knowledge of any subject is possible only if one makes an effort to dig deep into the intricacies. This I realized when I started participating regularly in my school science fairs right from class five. The study and hands-on experience in making working models to explain scientific phenomena like electromagnetism, earthquakes and drip-irrigation polished my problem solving skills. Apart from this I was totally in awe of the fascinating marvel called Computer that has...

Someone who has studied them received some form of education on the subject and/or published on the subject. This does not include a community encyclopedia. Anyone is able to log on and write for Wikipedia. This is not to say that legitimate authors are not writing articles on Wikipedia but that their validity can be questioned and changed by anyone.

External factors, subject is too difficult to understand, techer is hard to understand, and problems at home. Some other reason is they don’t do their homework or they are too idiot to get off in their class. If the subject is the problem, better seek help. Let the teacher know that you are having a problem on the subject. If your problem is the techer, because of his attitude or past discussion, the best thing you can do is to make your best this sememster but try to get a better teacher the next semester. Sometimes lack of motivation is the problem because you have no dreams.
