Can anyone help me with this report?

We Answered:

go the local library and they can help you. If you find that you procrastinated just use a book you already have read. Twilight is decent but it is very long

Difference of British and American English?

We Answered:

There are many differences. They include:
-Different spellings (labour -> labor)
-Different words (motorway -> highway)
-Different primary meanings of words (fag meaning 'cigar' -> fag meaning 'homosexual person')
-Different grammar ('He said: "Hi".' -> 'He said: "Hi."', not sure which one is US and which one is UK English)

English report topic - please help!!?

We Answered:

You could do "Young People in the Workforce"
And then you could interview your frineds who have jobs and do school, and ask people who just work, so you'd have lots of people to ask.
For research, try your Connexions office if you have one.
Hope I help, enjoy writing it!

Zachary Said:

in my english class we are writing an prospal paper and my topic is animal abuse. PLEASE READ!?

We Answered:

I agree that you should grammar check. For a formal paper (not saying that this is one), you should remove all the personal pronouns and individual points of view or opinions. It should just be about facts, but I don't know what grade you're in, so this is probably okay.

Something you may also want to toss in the mix is the fact that F.B.I. profilers recognize serial killers for abusive behavior to animals in early childhood. You've hinted at this with the case of Brenda Spencer, but not specified whether they perpetrated these actions as children.

You may also want to add that there's a moral and ethical obligation of humans as the caretakers of this planet to look out for the other creatures of this earth.

All in all, well done. Good job.

9th grade english book report...I really don't get it and need some help!!?

We Answered:

Hannah,
Sounds like your teacher is looking for you to display an understanding of story elements. She/he also wants to know that you have the ability to use that understanding to discern the techniques in your reading.

If you've read "The Most Dangerous Game" (I've never read "The Sniper" so can't use it as an example) it seems like there is a lot to discuss, particularly in terms of conflict and how setting creates mood.

Regardless of what you write about this assignment is going to require you to site specific examples from your reading assignments. I would probably pick the setting. Can you imagine "The Most Dangerous Game" set on a Fort Lauderdale beach during spring break? The island is critical and, as I recall, is drawn on heavily for suspense as well as foreshadowing.

I hope this helps. May the points be with you.
