Write a 1 to 2 paragraph evaluation of the essay titled "Take Another Look at Electric Cars". Use your graphic organizer and include textual evidence.


Heres the essay:

Take Another Look at Electric Cars


The average automobile driver pays $2,000 annually for gasoline. That $2,000 of gas is contributing to both the United States’ dependency on foreign countries and environmental pollution. Electric cars are beneficial for their owners and for the environment. Anybody who is buying a new car should consider purchasing an electric car.

Electric vehicles have a reputation as being expensive, but that has changed in the past few years. Purchase prices have been dropping and a federal tax credit lowers their actual cost even more. The average cost of a brand new gas automobile is approximately $31,500. Most new electric cars are priced between $30,000 and $40,000. That is a higher initial cost, but when you factor in the $7,500 federal tax credit (and possible additional state tax credits, depending on where you live), the price becomes comparable to that of a gasoline car. The annual costs associated with owning a car are much lower with an electric car. The average driver pays about $2,000 a year for gas. The average cost of electricity for a year of driving is $500. That will save $1,500 a year in fuel. Additionally, a more modern and streamlined engine will save drivers in other maintenance fees. One government study estimated that electric-car drivers will save over 40 percent in annual maintenance fees.

One of the biggest arguments against electric cars has been their limited range. Electric cars do have a shorter range, but that range is plenty for most drivers. The majority of American drivers travel less than 35 miles a day, and the average electric car has a range of about 100 miles on a full charge. Charging the car at home each night will provide enough power for daily driving and allow drivers to save time by avoiding stops at the gas station. And, as the number of electric cars on the road increases, more businesses and employers will install charging stations for their customers and employees, which will make charging a vehicle even easier.

An electric car may not be for everyone, but they have evolved beyond their original restrictions. With a purchase price that is comparable to a gas car, and reduced fuel and maintenance fees, anyone who is purchasing a new car should seriously consider an electric car. Spread the word, and check out an electric car today.

Both McClain and Koch were members of NASA's 2013 astronaut class, half of which comprised women.
When asked in a February interview about the importance of conducting her mission during Women's History Month, she said, "It is a unique opportunity and I hope that I'm able to inspire folks that might be watching."
Noting that she did not have many engineers to look up to growing up in Jacksonville, North Carolina, McClain hopes "to be an example to people that might not have someone to look at as a mentor ..."

Traditional Academic Essays In Three Parts

Part I: The Introduction

An introduction is usually the first paragraph of your academic essay. If you’re writing a long essay, you might need 2 or 3 paragraphs to introduce your topic to your reader. A good introduction does 2 things:

Gets the reader’s attention. You can get a reader’s attention by telling a story, providing a statistic, pointing out something strange or interesting, providing and discussing an interesting quote, etc. Be interesting and find some original angle via which to engage others in your topic.

Provides a specific and debatable thesis statement. The thesis statement is usually just one sentence long, but it might be longer—even a whole paragraph—if the essay you’re writing is long. A good thesis statement makes a debatable point, meaning a point someone might disagree with and argue against. It also serves as a roadmap for what you argue in your paper.

Part II: The Body Paragraphs

Body paragraphs help you prove your thesis and move you along a compelling trajectory from your introduction to your conclusion. If your thesis is a simple one, you might not need a lot of body paragraphs to prove it. If it’s more complicated, you’ll need more body paragraphs. An easy way to remember the parts of a body paragraph is to think of them as the MEAT of your essay:

Main Idea. The part of a topic sentence that states the main idea of the body paragraph. All of the sentences in the paragraph connect to it. Keep in mind that main ideas are…

like labels. They appear in the first sentence of the paragraph and tell your reader what’s inside the paragraph.

arguable. They’re not statements of fact; they’re debatable points that you prove with evidence.

focused. Make a specific point in each paragraph and then prove that point.

Evidence. The parts of a paragraph that prove the main idea. You might include different types of evidence in different sentences. Keep in mind that different disciplines have different ideas about what counts as evidence and they adhere to different citation styles. Examples of evidence include…

quotations and/or paraphrases from sources.

facts, e.g. statistics or findings from studies you’ve conducted.

narratives and/or descriptions, e.g. of your own experiences.

Analysis. The parts of a paragraph that explain the evidence. Make sure you tie the evidence you provide back to the paragraph’s main idea. In other words, discuss the evidence.

Transition. The part of a paragraph that helps you move fluidly from the last paragraph. Transitions appear in topic sentences along with main ideas, and they look both backward and forward in order to help you connect your ideas for your reader. Don’t end paragraphs with transitions; start with them.

Keep in mind that MEAT does not occur in that order. The “Transition” and the “Main Idea” often combine to form the first sentence—the topic sentence—and then paragraphs contain multiple sentences of evidence and analysis. For example, a paragraph might look like this: TM. E. E. A. E. E. A. A.

Part III: The Conclusion

A conclusion is the last paragraph of your essay, or, if you’re writing a really long essay, you might need 2 or 3 paragraphs to conclude. A conclusion typically does one of two things—or, of course, it can do both:

Explanation:

Look back through the of The Diary of a Young Girl and find an incident that you think is particularly meaningful,then write about the incident. 1 paragraph maximum

Answers

Answer:

N/A

Explanation:

I have 2 good incidents. I will put them both here and you can pick whichever you like. I am using quotes to say the incident and then I explain with a paragraph.

1A. "I get cross, then sad, and finally end up turning my heart inside out, the bad part on the outside and the good part on the inside, and keep trying to find a way to become what I’d like to be and what I could be if . . . if only there were no other people in the world."

1B. This statement ends Anne Frank’s last diary entry, written on August 1, 1944. Anne does not intend to end her diary at this point: to her, it is just the end of a regular day of hiding in the annex. However, this turns out to be her last entry because the Nazis arrested her and her family just three days later. It serves as a fitting conclusion to Anne’s development and personal growth during her time in the annex. Since her time in hiding coincides with puberty, Anne constantly struggles with her identity and her evolving sense of self. She tries to figure out her role within the annex and how she fits into the war and suffering in the outside world. Anne believes that she is a good person, but she also realizes that because of her confinement, she is unable to reach her true potential until she is released back to her normal life after the war. Anne’s words resonate even more profoundly because we know that within months these “other people” kill her in the concentration camp. Anne is never allowed to reach her full potential and never gets the chance to become the good person she has in mind.

2A. "It’s difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It’s a wonder I haven’t abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart."

2B. Anne writes this on July 15, 1944, less than one month before the Nazis arrested her and her family, sending them all to the concentration camps. This is perhaps the most well-known quotation from Anne’s diary because it is a brazen expression of optimism in the face of imminent and incomprehensible cruelty. The passage also provides a brief glimpse into Anne’s mind during her last days in the annex and demonstrates how much she has changed from when her family first went into hiding. At the beginning of her diary, Anne would likely never have had the self-insight to make such a sweeping statement. After two years of growth while living in extremely difficult circumstances, however, she is able to find within herself a core of hope and optimism. This passage is an example of Anne’s occasional and brilliant glimpses of lucidity and insight into her horrific situation.

Read the excerpt from “Tools of the Spymaster."

Later, as Clinton's troops were heading up the Hudson Valley, Clinton used another device to pass the news of his whereabouts to Burgoyne. Clinton wrote a message on a piece of silk that he put in a silver ball about the size of a musket ball. (Clinton also sometimes cut a message into long, narrow strips and coiled them into the hollow quill of a large feather.) Clinton gave the silver ball to Daniel Taylor, a young officer, promising that Taylor would be promoted if he got the message to Burgoyne. If he were captured, he was to swallow the ball. Because it was made of silver, it could not harm him.

The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to

What do you understand about grammar?

Grammar is the rule of a language governing the sounds, words, sentences, and other elements, as well as their combination and interpretation. The word grammar also denotes the study of these abstract features or a book presenting these rules. In a restricted sense, the term refers only to the study of sentence and word structure excluding vocabulary and pronunciation.

Grammar is the underlying structure of a language that any native speaker of that language knows intuitively. The systematic description of the features of a language is also grammar. These features are phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. Depending on the grammarian’s approach, grammar can be prescriptive, descriptive, or generative. The simplification of grammar for classroom use contrasted sharply with the complex studies that scholars of linguistics were conducting about languages.

During the 19th and early 20th centuries the historical point of view flourished.
