Passage
Prompt:
Your school district is considering removing handwriting and cursive classes from its school curriculum. Would you be in favor of such a policy?

Claim:
Our district should not eliminate cursive classes from its curriculum.

Paragraph topic:
Cursive can connect students to the past.

Evidence:

According to Johnson Kipling, professor of linguistics at Upton State University, "writing in cursive teaches reading cursive, and many of the foundational documents of our country are written in cursive, as are other historical documents. Looking at a typed transcript of these documents disconnects students from truly understanding them as part of history. One of history's central lessons is that times change and things evolve."
A poll of our state's high school history and government teachers revealed that almost 90 percent of them use primary-source historical documents written in cursive on a regular basis.
Counterclaim:
Students can just look at typed versions of historical documents to get the same information.

Answer:

the answer is the third option

Explanation:

Read the excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller.

Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship before my education began, only I was without compass or sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbour was.

Which statement best describes the purpose of the imagery in the excerpt?

It allows the reader to feel how lost Helen feels before she learns to communicate.
It allows the reader to feel how excited Helen feels when her new teacher arrives.
It keeps the reader in suspense and eager to find out what happens to Helen.
It paints a picture for the reader of how dangerous it is to be lost at sea.

My essay so far:

Why phony content is hazardous!
There is an immense sum of data on the cyberspace, although not all of it is accurate. Regrettably, social media users frequently cannot tell whether the content they look at is false or true. This commentary illuminates wherefore it is vital to fact-verify the information you see on the cyberspace.
There is an immense sum of information on the cyberspace, although not all of it is accurate. This is information from How trust Worthy is Social Media?, “So how do you tell truth from lies online? A group of researchers in Chile started analyzing news on Twitter after a devastating earthquake in Santiago in 2010. They learned that false tweets tend to include question marks or exclamation points. True tweets tend to be longer, include links, and come from users with more followers. If you’re unsure whether a post you’re seeing is true or not, check it out on snopes.com or factcheck.org.”
This means, most videos on the internet people are lying and this is how you can figure out if it is true or not. This also lets you know, if there are groups of people trying to expose people for lying on the internet, there must has to be a lot of influencers doing it too.
Therefore, you cannot trust all information on the internet. In Digital Detectives, it states, "In August 2017, while Texas was being rocked by Hurricane Harvey, an image was posted to Twitter. It looked like it had been taken from the driver’s seat of a car. Outside, the road was flooded, and there was a shark in the water. The post read: “Believe it or not, this is a shark on the freeway in Houston, Texas.” It was “liked” 142,000 times—but the photo wasn’t real. It was made with photo-editing software, and had first appeared online in 2011."
This means that she photoshopped this picture to look like there was a shark on the freeway for "likes," and "followers," although this was not real/false. This also shows/tells you to not listen to everything people post on the internet.
Credits to advanced video editing software, additional citizens than ever can be capable of making “deepfake” films that seem like actual tape of notorious individuals expressing things they have not once stated. My evidence here is from Fakeout, "Deepfakes are videos with visual or audio content that has been manipulated. They make it seem as if the video’s subject is saying words he or she has not actually spoken. In the past, videos like these could be made only by trained special-effects artists or video editors. Now, anyone with the time and the right tools can make a convincing deepfake."
The author of this is sarcastically says thanks to the people who created apps where you can create deepfakes, and put fake things on videos to make them seem like the person said it.
