Write-an-essay day ! Today, we learnt a second type of essay which is problem-solution essay. Like before, we are divided into groups so, we are going to write an essay in a group, each one of the group member will write a paragraph for the essay.
When we are writing the problem-solution essay, first thing first we need to identify the problem. As the type of the essay is the problem-solution essay, we must have a problem before writing the essay. Besides the problem , we also, need to have a solution for the problem that we have arise.
We must know, where the problems come from, who is affected by the problem. For example, "In my opinion, the problem originated from... " . We must think about the future, what will be, if the problems can be solve or what are we going to do, if the problem it not resolve. We must have a solution for every circumstance that might happen in the future. Because, we don't know what is the solution, as it still do not happen yet. We need to discuss the extent of the problem as well. We need to state that if the problem is not dealt, what are the problem that might occur in the future.
Here are some steps how to discus the situations :
- You need to introduce the solution
- Discuss who can get involved
- Discuss the cost and practically of the solution.
Miss Zu ask us to write an essay base on the video clip that she has shown to us which that video tells "What would you do pretty girl stealing bite ?"

Today, we continue with our term paper after left it for quite sometimes. whoooh. Term paper seems so hard to finish it. 1000 words? I never write an essay until 1000 words, and I don't know what my essay will look like. Seriously, I'm not sure if I can write that long ! Too long :O
As we already have the outline, it is easier to write the development paragraph. which, we need to submit next week ! For the first step, miss ask us to write the introductory paragraph. We chose to have personal example, rhetorical question and definition to be included as the hook in the introductory paragraph.
In the development paragraph, we need to have topic sentence, supporting detail 1, supporting detail 2 and supporting detail 3 as well as concluding statement. The development paragraph is not the same to the other type of essay. Different essay got different format. For compare and contrast the format to write the essay is just like I have stated.
After, writing the essay step by step, I found it , it's not impossible for me to write an essay as long as 1000 words. Thank you miss for the guide :) I guess I can write better now . hihihi
