Eg1. When I decided to return to school at age thirty-five, I wasn’t at all worried about my ability to do the work. After all, I was a grown woman who had raised a family, not a confused teenager fresh out of high school.

I had to learn how to locate information in a library, how to write a report, and even how to speak up in class discussions. Eg2. The ad in full color on a glossy magazine page, shows a beautiful kitchen with gleaming counters. In the foreground, on one of the counters, stands a shiny new food processor. Usually, a female hand is touching it lovingly. Around the main picture, are other, small shots. They show mounds of perfectly sliced onion rings, thin rounds of juicy tomatoes, heaps of matchstick-sized potatoes, and piles of golden, evenly grated cheese. The ad copy tells you how wonderful, how easy, food preparation will be with a processor. Don’t believe it. My processor turned out to be expensive, difficult to operate, and very limited in its use. 8. Explain the importance of your topic to the reader.

Today, however, child mortality due to disease has been almost completely eliminated by medical science. Instead, car accidents are the number one killer of our children. And most of the children fatally injured in car accidents were not protected by car seats, belts, or restraints of any kind. Several steps must be taken to reduce the serious dangers car accidents post to our children. Tip : Things to avoid in an academic essay Avoid overused
