Part A
Write your essay using any software for word processing that is available to you. Copy and paste your introduction from Task 2 into your paper. Use a standard five-paragraph essay structure, with an introduction, three body paragraphs, and a conclusion. You’ll also need to create a works cited page that lists the sources you consulted during your research. Use the following checklist as a guide to help you draft your essay.
