Answer 1

Part one:
School Uniforms
My school uniform is as stiff as a board from all the starch my grandma uses. When I walk, it goes, "Creak, whoosh, creak, whoosh." Everyone turns as I make my way to my locker, staring at me like I'm not wearing pants. Oops! I forgot to finish getting dressed after gym class! My pale, hairless legs stick out from my red gym shorts. I'm an overripe tomato with two toothpicks.

(That has simile, onomatopoeia, simile, metaphor.) If you use it, change it to make it your own! : )

2) turn the following topics into thesis. (the plural of thesis)

a) Country Music - Do the Grammy Awards won by the Dixie Chicks help or hinder their standing in the country music world? Many fans say the awards were politically motivated by popular music voters, and do not reflect the feelings of country music devotees.

b) Chocolate Bars - Chocolate lovers rejoice! Hershey's new Dark Chocolate Bars are proven to have health benefits. Although milk chocolate is not included, here is why you can add chocolate eating to your list of "Ways I Take Care of My Body" list.

c)World Peace World Peace is an impossibility. Unfortunately, while there have been times of relative calm, there have always been smaller skirmishes or civil wars going on throughout history. People fight over land, resources, religion, rights, and oppression. Until there aren't any people left, we will continue to have battles.


d) Toxic Waste - Although the US has enacted strict laws governing the disposal of toxic waste, there are still those who disobey and contaminate the soil and water supplies by improperly dumping waste materials.

Answer 2

My girlfriend is a chocolate bar -- dark, sweet, and desirable.
