The Revolt of the Unfit, by Nicholas Murray Butler. In the introduction the author gives general information.the thesis statement is in the first paragraph. It reads, there are wars and rumors of wars in the portion of the territory occupied by the doctrine of organic evolution. The conclusion technique that the author used to conclude his essay was a quotation. I like quotes at the end of essays because it seem to bring his know idea to the essay.

essay 1

1. Title: The Desired Look: Nothing But Bones / By: Rebecca Patton2. Intro Approach: Description3. Thesis: The obsession of many young girls over their appearance or weight has led to agrowing number of people who have developed an eating disorder to try to deal with theirlack of self-esteem or other related problems.4. The introduction was really good. It explained how young girls are way to obbsesed aboutwhat they look like. They are exercising to much and treating it like it is acompitition. The thesis statement also told how these dangerous methods of trying to get skinnyare leading to eating disorders that can eventually kill these girls. These young girls have a lack of self-esteem and other psychological issues. I think parents should be more involved with there children's lives. That may prevent further problems.5. Concluding Approach: Prediction6. The conclusion summarized the essay. Nobody really knows why people get eatingdisorders. When doctors diagnose eating disorders they have to look at all circumstances surrounding the child. I believe it is difficult for doctors to do. Many woman feel that in order to look like a super model they have to give up food and starve themselves to the point where they are so skinny and grose looking. They do this to look beautiful on the outside. They do not realize that they look bad and are slowly killing themselves.

I would love to do all there turns and dancing. It just seem I would feel like a princess. I have always wanted to be a princess. They only thing that bothers me with that is the cold i do not like to be cold. after all the dancing i mite get wormed up but i do not think so because I will be on ice. i would not like to be in the eye of everyone t.v. all the time ice skater only perform for a few months and then there done.

i enjoy watching sports such as football,baseball,boxing,and ice skating. I have not ever been a type or person to play any sport i once played basketball but that was for a summer group and i was fun but i easily grow out of it. i thing sport for fun and they give a time to have family over a eat. game party is always great to have. i love to so everyone together i do not have any game party's but i go to them at my friend house and family houses. i love to see everyone yelling out the t.v. i think it funny to see how the guys get so in to it.I am usually the one at a game party how goes for the other team it get everyone mad, but it is a good mad. one thing i like to watch and usually it is by myself is Ice Skiting i think it is one sport that i fined wonderful, how they gild on the ice it is like they are floating in air. sometimes i imagine me able to skate like that and how it must feel. i would think there has to be allot of thing you have to do to get to be a perfection Ice Skater.

I Talk of Dreams, By William Dean Howells

In this essay I found that William D.Howells talks about his dreams and how other have told him their dreams.He begin his essay by saying, "Everyone knows how delightful the dreams are that one dreams one's self ." His closing statement was when you are sleeping and dreaming there are times when you wake up and are able to go back to sleep and still go right back to the dream you where just having. I find that he stared off with a Strong statement.He ended with a call of action. Ipick this essay because i like to know about other dreams and what they experience in them i have had any of dream where i have woken up and still when to sleep within minet and was able to be in the same dream.
