Human Activity and Earthquakes
When Americans think of earthquakes, they tend to think of California, a state known for its frequent seismic activity. In recent years, however, people in Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas have been feeling the ground shake more often. An increase in oil and gas drilling in these states has led to "human-induced" earthquakes—those resulting from human activity. When wastewater is disposed of during gas and oil drilling, the water is forced deep underground. The resulting buildup of pressure can cause fault lines (cracks in the earth's crust) to shift. According to Mark Petersen, head of the U.S. Geological Survey's earthquake hazard mapping project, "In the past five years, the USGS has documented high shaking and damage in areas of these six states, mostly from induced earthquakes."
What is the main idea of the passage?
An increase in oil and gas drilling has caused a corresponding increase in earthquakes in six states.
Residents of six U.S states have experienced an increase in earthquake activity in recent years.
Answer:
A lot of other places are having earthquakes due to oil gas drilling

Read the following lines from the poem.
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
“Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you”—here I opened wide the door;—
Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word was there spoken was the whispered word, “Lenore!”

Answer:
Jade Ann had always loved cosy Oxford with its late, little lakes. It was a place where she felt calm.
She was a wild, courageous, cocoa drinker with beautiful face and brunette lips. Her friends saw her as a late, little Lawyer. Once, she had even helped a mashed kitten cross the road. That's the sort of woman he was.
Jade walked over to the window and reflected on her sunny surroundings. The sun shone like skipping horses.
Then she saw something in the distance, or rather someone. It was the figure of Martins Justyce. Martins was a daring coward with curvy face and 5’4 lips.
Jade gulped. She was not prepared for Martins.
As Jade stepped outside and Martins came closer, she could see the bitter glint in his eye.
Martins gazed with the affection of 9758 gentle proud puppies. He said, in hushed tones, "I love you and I want closure."
Jade looked back, even more excited and still fingering the peculiar kettle. "Martins, you must think I was born yesterday," she replied.
They looked at each other with surprised feelings, like two keen, kooky kittens cooking at a very adorable holiday, which had jazz music playing in the background and two clever uncles swimming to the beat.
Jade regarded Martins's curvy face and 5’4 lips. "I feel the same way!" revealed Jade with a delighted grin.
Martins looked happy, his emotions blushing like a bad, bored book.
Then Martins came inside for a nice mug of cocoa.

First, you’ll wanna use a hook to grab the reader’s attention. Then, relate your hook to your topic. Next, you’ll want to create a bridge. A bridge is just a few sentences of background information to close the gap between your hook and your thesis. Lastly, you’ll want to create a strong thesis with all of your main points.
Explanation:
For example, if I were to write an essay about the influences behind George Orwell’s Animal Farm it could go something like this.
Whether it be a child going against their parents or an uprising against higher powers, rebellion seems to be common throughout history. The first Russian Revolution occurred in 1905 to kick out the irresponsible, thoughtless tsar, Czar Nicholas II. After a successful revolution, the communist party gained control of what was turned into Soviet Russia. However, a dictatorship, unknown to the people of Soviet Russia, began to form. Eric Blair was a spectator on the sidelines of this heinous and rapidly growing country. He decided to publish his feelings through a book called Animal Farm under the alias George Orwell. George Orwell’s Animal Farm reflects the effects of Communism spreading, the Russian Revolution’s failures and outcomes, and the poor treatment of people in Soviet Russia as shown through the effects of Old Major’s speech and Napoleon’s oppressive, tyrannical ways.
“Whether it be a child going against their parents or an uprising against higher powers, rebellion seems to be common throughout history.” is my hook. Since I’ve already related it to my topic, it’s clear what my essay will be about. This book is extreme, but that’s the point. It grabs the readers attention.
“The first Russian Revolution occurred in 1905 to kick out the irresponsible, thoughtless tsar, Czar Nicholas II. After a successful revolution, the communist party gained control of what was turned into Soviet Russia. However, a dictatorship, unknown to the people of Soviet Russia, began to form. Eric Blair was a spectator on the sidelines of this heinous and rapidly growing country. He decided to publish his feelings through a book called Animal Farm under the alias George Orwell.” is my bridge. It relays some background information on the book, gives information on what my essay will be about, and it closes the gap between my thesis and hook.
“George Orwell’s Animal Farm reflects the effects of Communism spreading, the Russian Revolution’s failures and outcomes, and the poor treatment of people in Soviet Russia as shown through the effects of Old Major’s speech and Napoleon’s oppressive, tyrannical ways.” is my thesis. It clearly states the 3 main ideas that will be used in my essay. Don’t be tempted to turn your thesis into two sentences. It’s daunting to have such a long sentence, but trust me!
Hope you have an idea of how to do a proper introduction now!

A Flag with 50 Stars
The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.
In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.
The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change the grade to an A.
A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.
Read the excerpt from “A Flag with 50 Stars.”
Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag.
How do these sentences contribute to the text?
They develop the idea that, without Congressman Moeller, there would not be a new U.S flag.
They imply that the people of Alaska and Hawaii prefer Bob's design over other options.
They show it takes several years for the U.S. government to approve a new flag design.
They develop the idea that Bob's design is exceptional, despite what his teacher thought.
Its for K-12
They develope the idea that Bob's design is exceptional despite what his teacher thought.

Naming Pluto
When "Planet X" was discovered in 1930, astronomers began debating what to call it. An eleven-year-old girl named Venetia Burney suggested the name "Pluto" to her grandfather, who passed the idea along to a friend who was a professor of astronomy. The professor, in turn, immediately forwarded the suggestion to scientists at the Lowell Observatory, where the planet had been discovered. The astronomers appreciated the fact that Pluto was the ancient Romans' name for the god of the underworld, making it a fitting moniker for such a cold and distant celestial body. In addition, its first two letters matched the initials of Percival Lowell, the astronomer who first proposed the existence of Planet X. The matter was eventually put to a vote, with Pluto the hands-down winner.
What is the main idea of the passage?
Pluto is a good name for a cold, distant planet because it is the name of the Roman god of the underworld.
After an eleven-year-old girl suggested " Pluto", astronomers chose it as the name of a newly discovered planet.

Who first had the idea of shaping a piece of wood into a long narrow board and using it to ride ocean waves? No one knows for sure, but we do know that Hawaiians have been surfing since the 1400s. The Hawaiian word for surfing translates to wave-sliding, a fairly accurate description of this sport in which a surfer stands on a board and gets propelled across the water by the energy of the waves.
