How do you write a hypothses?

A hypothesis is what you think will happen.

So if an experiment was called 'To Investigate if a plant will die without water'.

It doesn't matter if it is wrong or right.

What is one way that you can hook the reader in an introduction?

I may have earned a C+ in English but the best way to hook a reader is easier said than done. Getting the person to comprehend the story and stay intact is by thinking outside the box and coming up with a poetic fashion to begin. Plus it helps to keep a thesaurus handy because using the the same words repetitively is very antagonizing. An example of a hook is describing a character in the beginning of the tale like this: "A teenage boy standing on his own two feet grinning from ear to ear with optimism filling the air all around him. His glittery hazel eyes tempts other girls to flirt and awe for hours on end with his blonde greasy hair and darkened skin tone, He looks back at you letting you know, what's not to love?"

What is contextual spelling?

Contextual spelling is when the spelling of a word depends on how it is being used in the sentence. In American English, many words that used to depend on context are now reduced to just one spelling of the word in all contexts.

For example, the word "practice" vs "practise". In American English, only "practice" is used. However, traditionally, "practice" is used only as a noun, while "practise" is a verb.

As a noun: "In order be that good, one must have lots of practice." The verbs in this sentence are 'be' and 'have', while 'practice' is a noun; something that you have.

As a verb: "What do I do for a living? I practise medicine." The verb in the second sentence is "practise," while medicine is acting as the subject; something being practised.

Essentially, contextual spelling is words that sound the same but are spelled differently depending on the situation. They're/their/there could also each, technically, be considered that type of word.

Who might choose to place things in parallel and not in series?

Parallelism in sentences refers to matching grammatical structures. This principle of parallel construction requires that expressions of similar content and function should be outwardly similar. The likeness of form enables the reader to recognize more readily the likeness of content and function. A common problem in writing today is the false series. It happens when a writer combines three or more seemingly related elements in a series, but the syntax is wrong. When you get the sentence right, you're said to be using parallel construction.

The saying silence speaks louder than words means that the silence is implying more than words could ever say. The length of silence and body language also says quite a bit.

How do you choose a topic to write or speak about?

You must choose whatever is interesting to you. If your teacher has given you a list, pick the one which seems more interesting. If you have no list, click on the Related Question below for some ideas to get started!

This would have to come from you. It would be more interesting for you to choose something that you either like now or would like to know about. You can also pick something that is of extreme interest now to the general public, like politics, war, compassion, or a particular industry that is disappearing, global warming, etc.

If your teacher has given you several options, always pick the one which seems most interesting! Writing is much easier when it is about something you like.

If you are starting from scratch, just pick whatever topic you like best - write about something you already know.

How do details support central ideas?

They can help by giving examples to convince the person or people. Details are very important in our lives so people can understand us, other people, books, stories and many more things! Hoped this helped and you remember to use details in everything you write or say because sometimes people need more explanation and that is why there is details. Again, hoped this helped :)

What is a thing that represents an idea or event?

This is a sign. A sign is a physical object that gives the reader a mental image of an idea, thought, or other mental event. The study of these kinds of ideas is called semiotics.

What should you always avoid formal writing?

Write what you mean, mean what you writeSpeakers use many informal, colloquial phrases in casual conversation, usually intending to convey meanings other than what the words literally indicate. For instance, we often speak informally of "going the extra mile", "at the end of the day", "hard facts", things being "crystal clear" or "pretty" convincing, someone "sticking to" a topic, readers being "turned off", something "really" being the case, etc. Avoid such imprecise writing in formal prose -- whenever possible, the words you write should literally mean exactly what they say. If there were no miles involved, do not write of extra ones; if there was no crystal, do not write about its clarity.Use imperative voice sparingly in a scientific paper, because it comes across as rude (as do many of the sentences in what you are reading right now!). E.g. do not say "Recall that ...". Of course, an occasional imperative in parentheses is not objectionableAvoid capitalizationWhen in doubt, use lower case. Capitalization is appropriate only for specific, named, individual items or people. For example, capitalize school subjects only when you are referring to a specific course at a specific school: math is a general subject, but Math 301 is a particular course. Similarly: Department of Computer Sciences vs. a computer science department, the president vs. President Bush. When in doubt, use lower case.Avoid contractionsContractions are appropriate only for conversational use and for informal writing, never for technical or formal writing..
