Answer 32

Answer 33

okay have ever read Romeo and Juliet? If not- you should read it. If you have no time I suggest you go to a website called Sparknotes which gives you the main idea of the story. Now in writing you want to pick a side. Either you think their love was true love or you think it was merely a stupid love. I personally think their love wasn't true due to the fact that they only loved each other for themselves. They didn't see love beyond a physical pleasure, they only saw love as something lustful and no life after that.
So that being said you need to convince your reader why you think so. Give examples. Give a definition of what true love is. You need to be strong in your essay to convince your reader why you chose your way of thinking. Do some research and discover more books that show the perfect example of true love.

Now in my opinion of true love is dying to one's self for the love of the other person- not to be confused with committing suicide because you can't have the other person as your love. True love is sacrificing everything for the other person and being happy you did so. Like lets say you like someone but that person didn't like you back- if you loved them so much you'd let them go so that they could be happy.

I hope you can understand what I'm trying to say. Just give lots of examples and reasons to explain your reasonings in your essay. I hope this Helps! and I wish you the best of luck! :)

Answer 34

Well, you will need to take a position, explain what it is briefly, then defend it. That is basically what this form of essay is.

Answer 35

I...was...right.... Mind officially Blown!

Answer 36

lol... yeah... >.<

Answer 37

:P Wow, now everyone is here...

Answer 38

The intro and thesis should basically be your position with the shortest forms of your reasons. Hints at them without explanations. Then you build with the explanatons.

Include a counter argument, why someone would disagree with you, and explain why you can not agree OR admit some flaws but state that you feel your argument is stronger. For example, there are stories of people that met, fell in love, and stayed married for the next 60 years. So why would R+J not be that?

Answer 39
