Which statement about essay format is true?
C.An essay does not require a conclusion.
D.The body paragraphs do not relate to the thesis.
A pro of keeping fit is that you will be healthier, this is because you are exercising and moving which is good for your body. Another pro of keeping fit is that you will feel better and will most likely feel more energetic. However, a con of keeping fit is that it requires time. Another con is that it might be hard at first because your body is not used to it. My opinion on this is that it that once you overcome the cons, the pros will be much better, and that it is good to keep fit.

Still typing, Miranda thought about Mr. Giuffreda. He expected nothing but the best—and then some. He never gave extensions unless someone had a family emergency, and he had a terrible habit of brushing off even the most creative excuses. Anyway, Miranda didn’t need an extra day or two. She needed time to read the entire novel again. Miranda ran a word count—361. She checked her watch—8:45. She flipped to the end of the book trying desperately to remember the ending, but nothing was coming to her. Why hadn’t she paid attention?
At 8:55, she had a whopping, miraculous 402 words. The homeroom bell had rung five minutes ago, and students were filing into the lab for first period. Miranda’s fingers were still flying, but by 8:59, Mrs. Brody asked Miranda to leave so she could start class on time. Miranda saved her work on her USB drive, collected her pages from the printer, and slung her knapsack over her shoulder. Then she trudged down the hall to Mr. Giuffreda’s class as slowly as possible, even though she knew she would be late and would probably get detention.

Select the correct answer.
Based on the passage, what will Miranda’s mother probably do?
A.
force Miranda to quit the soccer team
B.
understand that Miranda tried her best
C.
ground Miranda for the next two weeks
D.
find someone to tutor Miranda in English
Answer:
A. force Miranda to quit the soccer team.
Explanation:
The most reasonable method would probably be any of the other three answers, but the passage made it clear that Miranda's mother wouldn't hesitate to take away privileges if her daughter acted out. The specific line "One more bad grade in English, young lady, and no more soccer team" is a direct support of this answer, as well as the rest of that paragraph which details how her mother had always acted on her word and this time would probably be no different.
B. to sing for others
C. to dance tiredly
D. to act playfully
