Writing tips:
Make sure you are writing four separate paragraphs (each question is a different topic.) See Professional Writing Skills: Structure
Write in formal, essay-style structure, with paragraphs that flow together. Do not write the question numbers.
Read your paper out loud to catch awkward, incomplete, or run-on sentences. Check for grammar.
As always, assume your reader does not know these concepts– your job is to give teach your reader what a single story is, and how it is applied to our daily lives.
