There are several reasons why so many people attend the Olympic games or watch them on television. One reason is tradition. The name Olympics and the torch and flame remind people of the ancient games. People can escape the ordinariness of daily life by attending or watching the Olympics. They like to identify with someone else’s individual sacrifice and accomplishment. National pride is another reason, and an athlete’s or a team’s hard-earned victory becomes a nation’s victory. There are national medal counts and people keep track of how many medals their country’s athletes have won.

I need someone to tell me if my first paragraph of my argument paper sounds good.
i feel like it sounds weird.

my topic is: should poetry be taught more in school?
(first paragraph must have: transition, first reason, evidence and explanation 3x in that order)

The first reason is that poetry helps express emotions and feelings better and it strengthens overall mental health. A lot of people struggle to talk about their feelings face to face with someone. Sometimes it’s easier to express your feelings through writing. Poetry allows you to express your feelings and get it all out without having to share those emotions with others. “We are similar because we go through the same joys and sorrows, through the same illusions and disappointments. The supreme law of living makes us equals, and to a greater or lesser degree, we all feel euphoria and depression, sadness and happiness, hope and disappointments.” (How Does Poetry Communicate Feelings and Emotions?) Not everyone can tell their stories through poetry because they were never taught how to make connections. Through poetry, you can pour all your emotions out onto a piece of paper. Maybe if poetry was taught more in schools, more people would go on into life without bottling up their emotions and going through depression. They would go move on in life knowing they have some way of expressing all their feelings without sharing them with a person. It’s never good to sit there and bottle up your emotions. You can take all those bottled-up emotions and write them down using several types of poetry. “A well-crafted phrase or two in a poem can help us see an experience in an entirely new way. We can gain insight that had evaded us many times, that gives us new understanding and strength.” (Five Reasons Why We Need Poetry in Schools) The brain processes poetry a lot like music. A lot of people use music to express themselves or make themselves happier when they’re upset. (Poetry Lights Up the Brain) “MRIs have shown that both art forms stimulate regions in the brain’s right hemisphere that are linked to reward and emotion.” So even when reading poetry, you can start to feel better. So many people can understand the way others feel. Reading certain poetry can make you feel included and not so alone.

im writing an argument paper and need someone to tell me if my introduction sounds good.

my topic is: should poetry be taught more in school?
(intro must include a hook, background info, and a thesis)

Think into the past during your English classes while you were learning poetry. Were the lessons for poetry in-depth? Did they make you think? Or were they just simple things like reading and writing a few poems and answering some questions on famous poems. Lessons about poetry always seem so short and brief. It never feels like kids are being taught in-depth poetry. It’s always just the basics like some of the types of poetry written or why poetry is important. Teachers don’t usually teach the emotional connection poetry has so when kids get up into high school English, they struggle when learning poetry. Some English teachers in high school expect emotional connections to the poems or in-depth poems but since kids aren't taught how to do that throughout Elementary and Middle school, they struggle and can’t do it. Poetry should be taught more in school because there are so many things that poetry does for us, such as helping express emotions and feelings, strengthens overall mental health, and it’s even therapeutic for the writer and reader.

Story: Dust by Charles Grayson
1 As Edwin rested his cheek against the side of his cow, Nelly, he could hear the wind whistling through the barn walls and see the air begin to darken with dust. Annie and Jewel were giggling as they played in the hayloft above him when one of the girls began to wheeze. Edwin quickly finished milking the cow and called to his sisters. “Hurry up, girls,” he said, “another black blizzard is coming.”
2The wind suddenly picked up strength, and before Edwin’s eyes, the farmhouse—only 50 feet away—became nearly invisible. Without hesitation, Edwin grabbed two pieces of heavy twine, tied one around each girl’s waist, and then tied the two girls together. He took Annie’s hand and instructed her to hold tightly to Jewel. Leaning into the blinding wind, Edwin slowly navigated them back to the house.
3Inside, Ma was relieved to see the children. With a sigh, she took the milk from Edwin, eyeing the familiar dust that she would try to skim off before serving the milk to her family. Although it was early morning, the dust storm outside made the small farmhouse dark and dismal. Edwin slapped the dirt from his jacket with his hands. He was weary of the dust, too, but he was smiling inside because tomorrow his father was coming home.
4The next morning dawned clear and calm. Edwin swept the house while his mother worked in the yard, rescuing her daffodils from the dust that had drifted against the foundation of the house like gritty snow. The clatter of a rundown automobile heralded the arrival of Edwin’s father, and the boy raced outside.
5The family gathered around Pa, who hugged each one of them tightly. He had been in Arizona for three weeks picking cotton. This spring the ground was hard and barren, and the constant dust storms made it impossible to cultivate crops. Pa had to find some way to earn money—his children were wearing tattered hand-me-downs, and his small herd of cattle was slowly starving.
6When Ma asked about the work, Pa said that the wages he earned were far less than what had been promised. Still, he’d brought home enough money to see them through another month. Eventually, the joy of being reunited with his family faded, and the careworn expression returned to Pa’s face.
7After Pa had been home a few days, Edwin overheard his parents having a serious discussion. “I just don’t know if I can leave our home,” Ma said, a note of grief in her voice. Pa had heard there was work on commercial farms in California, where cotton, oranges, and other crops grew nearly year round.
8“I know it’s not like owning our own farm, but what choice do we have?” Pa pleaded. Afterward, Ma went into the yard and stood for a long time by her beloved lilac bush, staring out at the desolate fields.
9Later, Pa asked Edwin to ride the horse into town to purchase provisions. Edwin rode at a slow pace, thinking. He didn’t like it when his parents argued, and he didn’t like it when his father had to leave home to work. Most of all, Edwin wished there was something he could do to assist his family. At the store, he walked past the half-empty shelves to the back counter and asked Mr. Harburger for beans and flour.
10As Edwin waited, something bright and orange caught his eye. It was an old advertisement on the shelf in front of him—a photograph of a glistening orange grove with the words “Sunny California” splashed across the top. Edwin had never seen an orange grove before. Studying the picture, Edwin’s face brightened. “Take it,” Mr. Harburger said with a wink. At home, Edwin tacked the picture up next to his bed. One day, Edwin even caught his mother examining the photograph of the orange grove, smiling for the first time in a long time.
11When autumn arrived, Edwin’s parents learned the government was offering to buy starving livestock for slaughter. Most farmers knew their animals could not survive another winter, so they accepted the offer in exchange for some much-needed cash. After a long discussion, Edwin’s parents did the same. Edwin sensed a change was coming.
12The cow Nelly remained, but Edwin could see that she was becoming desperately thin. The next day, Edwin sold Nelly at the Baileys’ farm. The Baileys were doing better than most folks, though Edwin couldn’t say why. He returned home with 16 dollars in his pocket and a little relief knowing that Nelly would be cared for.
13Later that evening, Edwin’s parents made an important announcement: they would be packing whatever would fit into their old automobile and moving to California. Then Edwin made his own announcement. “Here,” he said, handing his father the 16 dollars. “We can buy fuel with this!
