A well-written essay is one that follows the specific structure in order to convey necessary information in relation to the writer’s thesis, without being redundant. In regards to this essay, all of the information is relevant to the overall theme: the high quality of mystery books produced by Agatha Christie. This essay is very satisfying, but can be slightly adjusted to produce an even better written piece. The essay starts off with a question, “Who does not enjoy a good mystery book?” I believe that this question is not very appealing to all readers, as those who do not enjoy the mystery genre may discontinue reading the essay. The hook can be replaced with a quote, for example, to open the minds of those readers who have no yet been turned
Review of Techniques of The Others The Others is a horror thriller set in a Victorian mansion on the
The author shows the readers that today so-called cozy mysteries has no big difference from Golden Age style mystery writing. The story occurs mainly in a small setting, such as part of a closed group, in a manor or a small village. Christie’s works still influence the readers: They still love to read Agatha Christie’s novels today.
Drinking age is not a strange phrase in our lives. Every time when we go to club or buy some liquor, we have to show our photo ID to prove that we have already 21 and we are legal to drink wine. I think this is a really good method to control drinking problem. Before I read these two articles which are “The 21-Year-Old Drinking Age: I Voted for it, It Doesn’t Work” by Dr. Morris E. Chafetz and “The Drinking Age of 21 Saves Lives” by Toben F. Nelson and Traci L. Toomey, I only felt that when people grow up they will have self-control to hold their desire for drinking and could decide whether it is appropriate to drink at that moment. I didn’t collect any data or information to support my opinion,
In his article "Making the Grade," Kurt Wiesenfeld presents a problem regarding the ethical value of grades in modern society. A physics professor, Wiesenfeld opens the article by making the "rookie error" of being in his "office the day after final grades were posted." (paragraph 1) Several students then attempt to influence him to change their grades for the class. What concerns Wiesenfeld is that many of his more recent students consider a grade to be a negotiable commodity rather than accept the grade as an accurate representation of efforts and performance and how much they learned. The author indicates that part of this

This essay is very effective in explaining the fascination of Agatha Christie (an English crime novelist who lived from 1890-1976) to the uneducated reader. The structure of the essay is cohesively structured into three main parts: the introduction (which contains a well developed thesis), the body (separated into three main arguments) and the conclusion (which adequately validates the opinion of the writer).The writer also targets their audience in the very first sentence by asking the rhetorical question: “Who does not enjoy a good mystery?” In this way, the reader immediately discovers that the essay is targeted towards anyone who is passionate about
Agatha Christie, author of the murder mystery And Then There Were None, used foreshadowing and both external and internal conflict to portray the theme of her novel that justice can be served for the crimes that go unpunished. Christie used these elements because she enjoyed mystery and she liked to keep her readers engaged while reading. Agatha Christie is still considered one of the best, if not, the best murder mystery writer today because she wrote the first murder mystery novel and she wrote many more after that that was well loved by people.
In the essay, The Enduring Appeal of Agatha Christie, the organization and strong supporting examples create an effective essay. The author begins with a general question which acts as a hook, in order to grab the attention of the reader. Then, the author gives examples of other popular writers, which allows the reader to gain a more specific idea about the topic of the essay. The thesis statement presents the author’s argument about Agatha Christie and it outlines the supporting points in the order in which they will appear in the body paragraphs.
Her research concerns/is focused on, first, the character/person of the protagonist – his characteristics and skills, as well as his cooperation with the sidekick; second, on the category of crime, including different kinds/types of crime and characters of both criminals and victims. Although both characters are featured/appear in novels as well as in short stories, it is the latter ones that are in focus in this paper. One of the reasons for this choice/decision is the fact that literary critics and scholars have often emphasised how much more effective the Sherlock Holmes formula is in the short stories (Worsley 225). The second reason is that, in case of Agatha Christie, it seems to have become a tradition to comment on the same works, often novels. For example, a rare critic has not contributed to the discussion of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd or The ABS
First thing is the writing and the fact that Agatha Christie’s name is not written on it. How is someone supposed to know who the book is by if it is not written on the book. Besides the title, having the author’s name is one of the most important elements of the book jacket. Along with that fault, there is the fact that, in spite of all the good features of the cover, there is no alluring colors, it is just red and black. Maybe, if you’re someone who likes dark stories and murder mysteries then it’ll allure you, but in order to appeal to everyone, there needs to be more than just a black background with red China figures and blood. Also, the writing isn’t so appealing, it looks like it was scratched on. The writing could work for a horror story, but not a murder mystery. Maybe going through those series of events was painful and terrifying for the characters, but for the readers it is something that makes you want to keep reading. It keeps people hooked, but in no way is the story frightening, if anything it is interesting. Nevertheless, these flaws do not stop this book from being a good read.
My interest for the Attorney Advisor position with the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) arises from my longstanding commitment to constantly improve myself.

Cleaning up down South: supermarkets, ethical trade and African horticulture is a piece by Susanne Freidberg published in Social and Cultural Geography journal in 2003 (Freidberg, 2003). Susanne Friedberg holds PhD from UC Berkely and is a Professor of Geography in Darmouth College, New Hampshire (“Susanne Freidberg,” n.d.).

It does not mean that the supermarkets care about these standards from moral point of view but that the compliance is driven by fear of bad

The essay’s introductory sentence begins with a broad question; it is successful in introducing the theme of mystery stories and intriguing the reader to continue. It is unnecessary to give examples of literature from other authors. Rather, the introduction should contain information specifically about Agatha Christie. However, the ideas
