https://s3.amazonaws.com/StraighterLine/ENG101/Course_Resources_15/Descriptive+Paragraph.pdf^^^^ example of how it should be done^^  turnitin will be used SO ONLY original workthis is a rough draft, then i will post part b ( will use same tutor for both parts )Choose one photo from the Time Magazine website at this address: http://lightbox.time.com/?iid=lf|tn You will choose a photograph from the Time site and write a descriptive paragraph. Use all five senses (sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch) to create vivid and tangible images in your own paragraph. Be sure to address each sense in its physical form and avoid metaphors. See below: Sight: “The green pine trees dotted the horizon.” Hearing: “The last-minute buzzer echoed through the stadium.” Smell: “The sweet aroma of jasmine filled my nose as I jogged past the flower garden.” Taste: “The cookies taste sweet with a hint of salt.” Touch: “The sand felt cold, wet, and gritty beneath my feet.” A topic sentence for this assignment should introduce the main point or points in the paragraph using key terms. In this case, you should touch upon the five senses because they are the focus of this paragraph. For example, “Attending the basketball game opened up my senses to vibrant lights, loud sounds, salty aromas, mouth-watering treats, and stinging sensations from so much clapping.”   Finally, add directional transitions (above the fountain, next to the doorway, to the left of the trees, etc.) to show the location and relationship of objects in the photo. This will help the reader paint a picture by placing objects in the scene without seeing the image. You can write this from a third person perspective (as a viewer from the outside) or from a first person perspective (as if you were experiencing this scene firsthand). Please copy-and-paste the photo image at the top of your paragraph (see Descriptive Paragraph Sample). When you submit your paragraph for review, include the name of the photograph (if available) and the exact URL where you accessed your chosen photograph. For this shorter assignment, you need not include this information in a formal MLA Works Cited list. You may simply put the photo title and URL at the bottom of the essay.Below find the requirements and guidelines for this assignmentRemember to apply the concepts you're learning in the course, including elements of grammar, punctuation, thesis development, and other skills. Header: Include a header in the upper left-hand corner of your writing assignment with the following information:Your first and last name Course Title (Composition I) Assignment name (Descriptive Paragraph) Current DateLength: This assignment should be one full paragraph, or at least 12 sentences.Format:Last name and page number in upper-right corner of each page Double-spacing throughoutTitle, centered after headingStandard font (Times New Roman or Calibri)1” margins on all sidesSave the file as .docx  or  .doc formatUnderline your topic sentence. 

Summarize at least 4 or more qualities that Steven Kotler (in Rise of Superman) thinks are characteristic of a flow state in your own words. Next, provide a personal example of a flow experience of your own in the form of a detailed story. The flow experience does not have to be about a sport. Paragraph 2 or More (Essay 1 Thesis Brainstorming) Begin your second paragraph with a one sentence thesis that fully answers the Essay 3 question:  In your thesis answer the following two questions in one sentence: What do you think are the two most important benefits of being in a flow state for extreme sport athletes? Why are those two flow effects important for extreme sport athletes? 2. Then support your thesis by discussing at least 4 of the 7 athletes featured in Chapters 1-4, 6, 7, and 9 of Kotler’s Rise of Superman: Danny Way, Laird Hamilton, Dean Potter, Red Bull Air Force, Doug Ammons, Mandy-Rae Cruickshank, and Shane McConkey.  

The U.S. Constitution stipulates that Electors will vote for the office of President and Vice President, what we commonly refer to as the Electoral College. Two times in the 21st century the candidate with the most popular votes across the United States has not won the most votes in the Electoral College, hence losing the election. Some activists and scholars are arguing that a democratic system of government requires that majority rules; therefore, the candidate for President who receives the most popular votes should win the election. Further, there is a proposal to bypass the Electoral College without having to amend the Constitution (which is basically impossible).Explore the strategy of the National Popular Vote movement at this website: www.nationalpopularvote.com.Compare the way in which we elect Presidents in our current system to the proposal of the National Popular Vote movement.
