NerdyLizard:

More of the prompt please! :D

karremat:

what does that mean

NerdyLizard:

The prompt is the asignment. Aka: write 5 pages on the book "Something" and how the main character grew throughout the story.

NerdyLizard:

Also, what stance will you be taking?

karremat:

no, i just want to write a hook and it is just the general statement about topic applied to real-world and my topic is human behavior during war and conflict

karremat:

it is an essay hook

NerdyLizard:

Ok. Well, maybe make the hook be about some examples of behavior changes. E.g. War has many effects. Among them is its effect on behavior, whether it makes people dislike something, etc. (This is a bad hook but it gets my point across.)

Tommymfng:

expressed in times of armed conflict. Human behaviour is by definition so complex, even in situations that appear quite simple. War destroys communities and families and often disrupts the development of the social and economic fabric of nations. The effects of war include long-term physical and psychological harm to children and adults, as well as reduction in material and human capital.

NerdyLizard:

The above is a good example of an abstract but too wordy for a hook. The hook needs to be short and sweet to draw people in.

Tommymfng:

the element of human nature that leads to war is an innate aggressive drive or instinct.

karremat:

ok thank u guys
