PART I: WRITING APPLICATION

In this homework assignment, you will turn in a 1 page document that
consists of three paragraphs: a paragraph plan, a draft cause and effect
paragraph, and a revised cause and effect paragraph. Use a word processor, such as Microsoft Word,
to complete and turn in the assignment.
Remember to use proper APA format (Times New Roman, 12-point font,
double-spacing).

Step 1: You can choose any of the following topics about which to write your
cause and effect paragraph. Choosing a
topic that is of interest or choosing a topic that may be difficult for you to
write about is a good way to challenge your writing skills.

o Having a close relationship
o Having a caffeine addiction
o Getting a higher education
o Having a poor body image
o Spoiling a child
o Seeing a therapist
o Having low (or high) marks in
college
o Not keeping up with the
college workload
o Skipping classes
o Working with a family member
o Working at home
o Getting a promotion

Step 2: Create your
paragraph plan, write your first draft, and then write your revised draft.

First write your
paragraph plan. Next, in the same
document, write your first draft and then write your revised draft. You should have three separate elements that show
the progress of your paragraph.

Remember that a
good paragraph takes time to write. You
may want to start with some idea-development activities, such as freewriting or
brainstorming, to help you generate your paragraph. Pay attention to your purpose, audience, and
mechanics in your paragraph.

Step 3: Save and
submit your assignment.

PART II: READING COMPREHENSION

Worry, Act Happy” by Albert Nerenberg on page 548 in your textbook.

Happy theory.
2.
Why are people so reluctant to act happy
if they don’t feel happy?
3.
