You will have plenty of opportunities to research this semester. For now, show me that you can think logically. Your papers should have an introductory paragraph that gets right to the point and that indicates your position/thesis in the last sentence. Each paragraph thereafter should have a clear topic sentence that reveals a new reason in support of your thesis. The rest of each body paragraph should provide examples from the text (evidence) and then explain how each example relates to the reason.
