Dogs are the best pets because they make great companions‚ they are very intelligent beings‚ and they come in all shapes‚ sizes‚ and temperaments to meet the needs of all sorts of people.

Thesis: People should not trust their ability to thin-slice in situations. I think that Malcolm Gladwell has proven that in experts‚ decisions should not be made in the blink of an eye.

“God save you Ebeneezer! And a merry Christmas to you!” bellowed a voice from the window. Through the foggy glass‚ Scrooge could make out the rather large outline of none other than Peggy Harker‚ a worker at the local orphanage. Scrooge crinkled his nose in disgust and shooed her away with a flick of his hand. Peggy Harker‚ persistent as the rain during a wet monsoon month‚ continued to say “My oh my‚ it is extremely cold… mind if I come in?” in which Scrooge acknowledged with a harsh grunt.

No‚ cellphones are not necessary in teenagers’ lives. I admit this because I think cellphones ruin teenagers’ social life. First of all‚ teens like to use their cellphones to text.
