THE WRITING BOOK for M S

Note: Again, this is a better paragraph because of the abundant and 
specific details, strong central focus, and the variety of words and 
sentences. Your goal is to be able to do the same.

C Period 
An American Tragedy 
(TS) The whole world was affected when America was attacked on September 
11
th
, 2001. (1
st
Pt.) First, terrorists attacked America’s great symbols to destroy 
Americans’ beliefs. (Ex.) They attacked the Twin Towers, which represented power, 
wealth, and success. America’s enemies also attacked the Pentagon, a symbol of 
America’s strength. They did all this because the attackers see America as a country of 
greed, power, and they wanted to knock down all that Americans believe in. (2
nd
Pt.) 
However, Americans rushed to help the victims. (Ex.) Across the country, people came 
and stood in lines for hours to donate blood. Rescue teams worked around the clock 
trying to save lives, and many died doing so. President Bush and New York’s Mayor 
Guiliani sprang into action by talking to and assuring the people of the nation. (3
rd
Pt.) 
Last, the world rushed to support America. Both Palestinians and Israelis lined up to give 
blood. South Korea and other European countries set aside a day of mourning. (CS) To 
sum up, although America was attacked, both the world and America rushed to help the 
victims.
