Question

whats a good hook sentence for a essay about automobiles?

Answer 1

Is it about automobiles in general or something more specific?

Answer 2

so to answer your question, yes. just automobiles

Answer 3

Okay! Well hooks can range from a really cool fact (maybe when automobiles were first created and by whom), to a little scenario (like "Imagine driving a car and then...")

Answer 4

So maybe you'd want to start with a fact for the hook. Tell the audience a shocking/cool fact, but it really goes down to what type of essay it is.

Answer 5

The entire point of a hook is to get someone interested in reading your essay. So it is important that you make it relate to your main point(s) but still interesting.

Answer 6

so, in simple words, "imagine driving car and it randomly stops" could be the introduction?

Answer 7

For sure, you may have to add more to it to make sure it all flows together neatly, but yes!

Answer 8

Err, you might want to add on to the "randomly stops." Like tell us why it randomly stopped, and (maybe) what you will do because of it.

Answer 9

So, "imagine driving your car to the local gas station, and all of a sudden you run out of gas"

Answer 10

That works, just as long as it goes along with what you're writing about!

Answer 11

Agreeing to @/sammixboo!

Answer 12

You can adjust it more later on as you write the rest of your introduction as well

Answer 13

So, to follow up i could say "This is probably because your car consumes gas at a very high rate or, you forgot to putt gas in your car the previous day"

Answer 14

Lemme help you rephrase that a little bit: This might be because your car consumes gas at an extremely high rate, or you forgot to fill-up your car the day prior.

Answer 15

I also tend to use third person in my writing, instead of saying "you" - so I use they/them/people

Answer 16

Yeah! That's a really good hook if you're writing about gas consuption or something relating to that

Answer 17

so what could be a good theesis? @sammixboo @dreamingwitch
