I have to write a 5 paragraph essay on Bethany Hamilton which isn't that bad but i have one more paragraph what should i write about her?

Answers

U can right
Introduction(when she was born)
Early life (childhood)
Life now(say is hses dead or if shes alive and say what she does for living)
Conclusion(wrap it up)
If it is your last paragraph, it should be your conclusion of what you mentioned earlier. For example, if you wrote about her life before she broke her arm, her surfing skills and accomplishments, and her family; briefly mention those in your conclusion. If you are looking for parts to the body, use the three I mentioned in my example. If you are looking for and introduction, state whatever you are talking about in the order you in which will talk/write about them. Just use the ones I mentioned in my first example.

Which sentence in this excerpt from Susan B. Anthony’s “On Women’s Right to Vote” reveals the purpose of the speech? Friends and fellow citizens: I stand before you tonight under indictment for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote. It shall be my work this evening to prove to you that in thus voting, I not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution, beyond the power of any state to deny.

The preamble of the Federal Constitution says:

"We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.
