Question

I need ideas for an essay :) Here are the options I can do and it needs to be 5 paragraphs with 5-6 sentences in each. Help me choose and give me ideas please...?

Answer 1

"I am a citizen of the world" is a key line in the story "When Greek Meets Greek." What does this line mean to you? Explain how this line fits with the events of this story or another selection in this unit. Include details to support your explanation.
The poems in this unit share the theme of love: love of self, love of family, love of country, and love of a significant other. After deciding what kind of love is being addressed in each poem, describe the sensory details the poet uses to evoke this powerful emotion. Which poem affects you most? Explain why you think that is.

Please don't give me an answer....I just want ideas

Answer 2

I want to do the second one :/

Answer 3

What does the essay have to be about?

Answer 4

One of those two topics :/ I'm doing the second option though.....it starts at "The poems...."

Answer 5

I personally think the first would be easier but whatever you want to do is fine.

Answer 6

Can you tell me why you think that? People keep saying that the second one would be easier, then other people think differently. I am seriously confused and I have no idea which one I am doing @Basher :'(

Answer 7

The first is actually kind of confusing. I would also do the second one. But either way, it is a matter of opinion.

Answer 8

I know but it's hard... :(

Answer 9

Not really. Not as hard as the first one. Can I read the poems?

Answer 10

I can try. One second....I will post the names and you can find the summary on enotes? would that work? it's through my school and you have to have a login so you can't get on there unless you are from connexus

Answer 11

I will give you the names of all of the stories because seriously, I don't know which poems or which ones it is talking about that are about "love"

Answer 12

Okay.

Answer 13

Answer 18

Answer 19

Answer 20

Answer 21

Now that i think about it it's confusing....

Answer 22

I don't know how I would answer it but let me think.

Answer 23

@cj49 what does the line " I am a citizen of the world" mean to you?

Answer 24

yes and more.....one second.

It means that everything I do affects everyone, not only me and that I can contribute to the world....? sorry....I was doin something for my mom....

Answer 25

Oh lol

Answer 26

Either one would have been confusing. :/ Do you think that'll work? I need to add more detail and work on the rest of it....

Answer 27

Yeah that sounds perfect

Answer 28

It's supposed t be what it means to you so if that's it than go with it and I like it....

Answer 31

@cj49? I'm confused....

Answer 32

He answered what that phrase meant to him

Answer 33

oh haha :)

Answer 34

Whelp, here are the first 2 sentences that I've come up with so far.....23 to go! Yippee, not...:P

"I am a citizen of the world" to me means that my actions and attitude can affect not only myself, but everyone else as well. It also means that I can contribute to the world by volunteering, through work, mission trips, and so much more.

How does that sound?

Answer 35

"I am a citizen of the world" to me means that my actions and attitude can affect not only myself, but everyone else as well. It also means that I can contribute to the world by volunteering, through work, mission trips, and so much more. If it's through kindness or love, I know that I can make a difference.

I added a third. Every time I add a sentence, I'm just going to add it to what I have so when I am done, it'll all be there :) 22 left :P

Answer 36

Yeah that looks good

Answer 37

Okay. I don't know what else to do :(

Answer 38

Answer 39
