Point and Support make up the Basics of Argument. A good argument is a part of the disscusion in which each of us supports his point of view about a subject. Also it is a part of our every day dealings with other people, trying to convince the audience with our oppinions and interpretations, giving logical evidence which provide solid support. After this, we clearly understand and agree with the point.

Definition Paragraph "Self-esteem" page119 Ms. Kristi

Self-Esteem is a term which is treated especialy in psychology to acquaint a person’s universal quality like personification of ourselves. The respect for ourselves is very important. Having self-respect,everyone is able to confront the challenges of entire lifetime. Self-esteem is built up when we have confidence and satisfaction in ourselves. This means a good self-esteem indicate a good feeling about ourselves, if we do not feel good about ourselves, then this means we possess a low self-esteem. So that, having a low self-esteem we feel badly about ourselves. Obviously, we have no self-respect, and think things like we look horrible, and no one likes us. We always want to have a good self-esteem; a good self-esteem will help us getting further in entire our life. But,there is a fact when we possess a self-esteem that is too high it also affects very badly to us because, we look at ourselves more values than others have. So in this case we've overvalued ourselves against the others.
As conclusion,the term "Self-esteem" must build up conform to the cultivation of the person's universal quality.

Although I’m still not the life of the party, I took these steps to overcome my shyness at parties Ms. Kristi

First step is Confidence in yourself. It is key which makes anyone attractive and draw people to your personality. About myself I always think positive thoughts and that will help me command the party and attention of others. Boost confidence is cute outfit. Wear my favorite shirts, new designer shoes that I’ve just bought recently.
Secondly, join the fun. At every party there are usually a bunch of people, who are having the time of their life. They laughing, joking, telling funny stories and just having an overall good time. So when I arrive at a party ease myself into the group of partiers.
Finally, since I don’t know a lot of people at the party, I start socializing. So introduce myself to the others, and then give a compliment to someone who is wearing a cute clothe. This is a way to start a conversation. Walking around I get to know people and all of us will know each other.

Mrs, Kristi Page #107 Suggested Topics for Process Paragraphs

How to land an interesting job
We should structure a resume around some of the highest quality examples at a job search website.
Apply to every and any job we think we may be qualified for. Always include a cover letter unless the company specifies not to. A cover letter shows possible employers our writing abilities and gives them insight into our personality.
After we apply to a job opening with a cover letter and resume we can go ahead and call within a few days to confirm that they received our information.
We have to be prepared to have a phone interview before they bring us in for a face to face, because many companies are used to select through phone interviews and bring in the better .applicants for a face to face, so we have to treat the phone interview as such. The phone interviews are tougher because we can’t examine the interviewers body language and facial expressions.
To avoid any misunderstanding during the interview , we always have to respond to their questions respectively.
Wear a suit to the interview. We must be clean shaven, nails clipped, hair cut and washed, and unwrinkled suit.
When we greet the interviwer we should always give them a firm handshake and and make eye contact.
This is very important since most managers say they know if they will hire someone in the first 30 seconds of meeting them.
After the interview, send a Thank You Note within 24 hours of the interview as common curtiousy.
After a week or two, call the interviewer to touch base with them. This also shows more interest in the position.

Mrs. Rosemary A Passage about an experience that made us mad or angry

Once,I was driving to see my wife's doctor at the hospital regarding her prognosis, it was overall a very stressful day because I was anticipating the news not to be good. As I am driving down the road within the speed limit, paying attention to every detail to make sure not to get into an accident. At that time I noticed a car driving very close to me behind me for a few miles. I tried to alert the driver to not stay so close through my mirror,but she did'n seem to care and continued to still do so. All of a sudden a car is stopped right in the middle of the road pass an intersection and as I am trying to step on my brakes to avoid hitting the car in front of me. I got hit by the one behind, I got very angry because this accident could been avoided, and I asked her:" What did you do? you ruined my car, I could have gotten hurt. Why were you tailgating the whole time? are you crazy?.

The 4th of July Mrs.Kristi

The Independence Day in United States
Independence Day is annually celebrated on July 4 and is often known as “The Fourth of July”. It is anniversary of the publication of the Declaration of Independence from Great Britain in 1776.
Patriotic displays and family events are organized throughout the United States. Many people display the American flag on their homes.
The celebrations have deep roots in the American tradition of political freedom.
My experience with this holiday is almost the same with that of all American people. It is a day of family celebration going to picnic and cooking the food in barbecue and associated with watermelon soda and why not beer for the ones don’t drive. Actually I was with my family and our cousins in a Park, where in front of us lies a Lake. Around us there were lot of people who were celebrating this day like we did. This means that on this day very few people have to work. We altogether escaped the heat during that day swimming into the Lake. Whereas, at evening we went to the Central Park of the our City and attended a concert accompanied by patriotic music and country music too. After that, we enjoyed fireworks that were arranged by community.
Independence Day or Fourth of July is a federal patriotic holiday for celebrating the positive aspects of the United States. All people on this day express and give thanks for the freedom and liberty in honor of the first generation that fought for all of today’s Americans.
