can anyone help me please?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Only if you ask a question.

What does the support of a paragraph do? It states the main idea. It includes the evidence. It proves a difficult point. It grabs readers' attention. ok i got B and i have a strong feelings it's correct but do not wanna take chances of getting it wrong

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Hmmm... In general a supporting paragraph is a part of the main body of your essay that develop the main idea by adding facts, details, examples, etc.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is b it includes the evidence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@e.mccormick ?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

I think b is best. It may also do c, but that may require more than one paragraph and you may not have a difficult point to prove, so b is best.

thank you btw what is the hook?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

There is a song about that.... lol It is the hook that drags you in. Like a fish hook uses bait to catch a fish. The hook in a song or story makes you interested so you are willing to continue.

for example Musical theatre changed my life

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

"I come from a family with a lot of dead people" Quoted on: http://www.npr.org/2007/06/25/11260800/great-opening-lines-to-hook-young-readers Shock, awe, laugh, or something that makes people scratch their head and go, "Now what did that mean? I need to know!"

ok thnx

If you listen to this catchy song (the video sucks, so just listen) you will find it has a beat that draws you in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdz5kCaCRFM But if you read the lyrics... you see how it is talking about conning people into listening to music. "Hook" It doesn't matter what I say So long as I sing with inflection That makes you feel I'll convey Some inner truth or vast reflection But I've said nothing so far And I can keep it up for as long as it takes And it don't matter who you are If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks Because the Hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The Hook brings you back On that you can rely There is something amiss I am being insincere In fact I don't mean any of this Still my confession draws you near To confuse the issue I refer To familiar heroes from long ago No matter how much Peter loved her What made the Pan refuse to grow Was that the Hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The Hook brings you back On that you can rely Suck it in suck it in suck it in If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn Make a desperate move or else you'll win And then begin To see What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free It's so PC it's killing me So desperately I sing to thee Of love Sure but also of rage and hate and pain and fear of self And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf I've tried well no in fact I lied Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside To hide or slide I'll do as I'll decide and let it ride until I've died And only then shall I abide this tide Of catchy little tunes Of hip three minute diddys I wanna bust all your balloons I wanna burn all your cities to the ground I've found I will not mess around Unless I play then hey I will go on all day. Hear what I say I have a prayer to pray That's really all this was And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck I don't rely on luck because The Hook brings you back I ain't tellin' you no lie The Hook... On that you can rely
