One could write an entire essay around this sentence. The better topic sentence would be to define a particular aspect of the weather and go from there. In addition, certain seasons could be compared to specific seasons or weather conditions.
5. If the thesis is weak, the paper could go in many different directions and the result could be a poorly defended thesis. In addition, a weak thesis might not even describe the correct definition of the paper. The thesis needs to be strong so that each paragraph can defend it without the paragraph feeling lost or off-topic. A carefully crafted thesis statement will guide the writer. In addition, a strong thesis will make the writing process easier because it is focused.
6. A good topic sentence but weak support indicates that the proof is not as strong as it could be. In this situation, I would look at my evidence and look for ways to be more convincing. I would make sure that each paragraph supported the thesis and did not veer off the subject. I would look at the outline and see where the paper is weak. It would also be a good idea to start over with the thesis on a blank document and try to rewrite the outline with better/different evidence. I would also step back from the paper and consider questions about why I decided to write the paper and if this even comes across in the paper. Other things to consider are if the topic is too broad or too narrow because each of these errors can result in a paper that is too flimsy because of a lack of evidence or too weighted down with too many facts. A reader cannot digest too many facts all at once and if there is not enough convincing evidence, a reader will simply not take interest in the subject or quit reading the paper altogether.
7. The fundamental rule for subject-verb agreement is compromised when subjects and verb are separated from each other in a sentence. This is especially true when prepositional phrases are present. Subject-verb agreement can also be confusing when the subject follows the verb in a sentence. Complex subjects also cause problems because...

Teachers are acutely aware of this phenomenon and strive to maintain order in their classrooms. While universal tactics, such as proximity, direct instruction, and the provision of high-interest activities, generally prevent potential disarray, there are moments when personalized techniques more successfully address management issues. The

These low-stakes assignments will allow students to explore ideas and issues that will help guide them in their learning.

Successful Rhythm in Yeats' "When You Are Old" We read many thing a and do not generally consider rhythm as part of the reading experience. However, with poetry rhythm emerges as an important aspect of the poem, creating a mood and tone that the poet would otherwise have difficulty achieving. William Butler Yeats creates rhythm in "When you Are Old" by using a familiar rhyming meter, literary devices such as alliteration
In both cases, contributing variables such as country of origin, the existence or non-existence of family ties, gender and an immigrant's experience of the immigration process are omitted from the equation. This sector aimed to satisfy this gap by testing the combined effects of acculturation, kin, civic ties, and institutional context on immigrant's distrust of U.S. government, by testing for both acculturation factors (i.e. second-hand experience) and institutional factors
