So, I did not expect a surge of questions, but I will try to address all of them here. For essays, please check out the โCompilation of Essaysโ file. You will find various topics in different formats which should be sufficient to grasp how to answer your paper 1. The thing is, once you got the idea on what to write, then the rest shouldnโt really be an issue, so to be honest, it isnโt worth to put all your focus onto a few topics.
Regarding the โcrimeโ topic, letโs say itโs an article and it wanted you to describe what is it, why does it happen, and how to prevent. Get a catchy title of your own, like โThe rise of crimes,โ underline it, then write the authorโs name (which is you) under it. Next, think of a hook to catch readersโ attention: โLately, there has been multiple reports of crimeโฆโ After that, a new paragraph to answer the first question: โCrime is a form of illegal actโฆโ followed by the next one: โHumans sometimes get greedyโฆโ and the last one: โWe should keep our valuable items somewhere safeโฆโ After all of these, conclude all of these in your last paragraph.
English tenses confuse the majority which we can feel on our own. Deciding whether to use present, past or future is already a mess, yet thereโs more chaos when thereโs continuous forms, perfect forms and both forms together. Hereโs a question: โWhere did he put his phone at?โ This sentence itself indicates a guy has put his phone somewhere earlier, but does that mean itโs missing? It could be but we are uncertain about it, but regardless of that, it still refer to an action in the past. The same applies for โMy friend had explained where the brake was and how to use it.โ This sentence just wants to point out thereโs a friend who told me where the brake was on the bike. These are hard to explain, which means you actually have to gain experience in order to grasp better why is it the case.
I hope these answer the questions of you guys. Anyway tip of the day: Subjects (I, You, We. They, He, She, It) are always at the front whereas possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs) are always at the back.
