The best personal narrative about Paolo’s experience to overcome his fear of heights by riding the roller coaster is “Riding a roller coaster to overcome my fear of heights showed me that I was brave and able to tackle any obstacle ahead of me.” Personal narrative shows a story of one’s life by telling your experiences.

Riding a roller coaster to overcome my fear of heights showed me that I was brave and able to tackle any obstacle ahead of me.

A personal narrative should be written to show how the author has grown or changed because of an experience. The thesis statement needs to show this growth. The first option is not correct, because thesis statement only tells he has a fear or heights and he rode a roller coaster. It does not indicate what the author learned. Option C and D both say that the author changed or learned something, but it's not specific enough. Option B is the only option that shows how riding the roller coaster changed the author.

Ivenika [448]

Brown Vs Board of Education sparked debate on civil rights as described in the Constitution.

Roe Vs Wade was about women's right to abortion.

Bush Vs Gore determined who won the election in Florida and ultimately the presidential election.


In the last case, state law in Florida required recount of ballots if the totals were very close. But Gore only requested recounts in four counties. FL Supreme Court ordered a statewide recount instead. US Supreme Court stepped in and ruled that FL court's action violated the Equal Protection Clause in the Constitution by using different standards of counting in different counties. The recount was stopped and Bush won.

snow_tiger [21]
I would say:
Our knight lives optimistically in a fictitious, idealistic past. Sancho withal aspires to a better life that he hopes to gain through accommodating as a squire. Their adventures are ecumenically illusory. Numerous well-bred characters relish and even nurture these illusions. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza live out a fairy tale.Virtually all these characters are of noble birth and mystically enchanted with excellent appearance and manners, concretely the women. And everything turns out for the best, all of the time. And so, once again, they live out a fairly tale. Here we have a miniature fairy tale within a more immensely colossal fairy tale. Outside of the fairy tale, perhaps, we have the down-to-earth well-meaning villagers of La Mancha and a couple of distant scribes, one of whom we ourselves read, indirectly. I struggle to understand the standpoint of the narrator. Is the novel contrasting a day-to-day and mundane authenticity with the grandiose pursuits of the world's elites? This seems to be the knight's final clientele. As for reading the novel as an allegory of Spain, perhaps, albeit why constrain it to Spain?


I hope this helps!!!!
