2 TYPES OF PARAGRAPH (TOPIC, SUPPORTING AND CONCLUDING SENTENCES)
PARAGRAPH 1.
Charity for the poor
works to the interest of society. Charity helps poor people eat
better, have a shelter and medicine so that they live better lives. Without
charity the poor may not find basic resources to get by in life. As a
consequence of being left alone with their misfortune--hungry, ill and
homeless--poor people may contract diseases, die early, and engage in crimes.
Most likely, they become bad role models for their children, too. These
end-results harm a society.
Topic sentence.

PARAGRAPH 2.
My brother has some disgusting and inconsiderate habits. He loves to
chew on toothpicks. That would not be so bad if he didn’t leave them
lying all over the house. Sometimes they even get stuck in the carpet.
Another bad habit he has is walking through the house with his muddy
boots. He will walk right across a freshly washed floor. He will take
his boots off and leave them in the middle of the floor for everyone to
trip over. He leaves hair all over the shower and the soap. He doesn’t
bother to rinse the shower out or to rinse the soap off. This is
inconsiderate because everyone else has to use the shower too. If my
brother lived alone, he could be the slob that he is without anyone else
caring, but since he lives with other people, it would help if he
showed a little more consideration for his family!

Water pollution is any chemical, physical, or biological
change in the quality of water that has a harmful effects on any living
thing that drinks or uses or lives in it. When humans drink polluted
water it often has serious effects on their health. Water pollution is
usually caused by human activities. Different human sources add to the
pollution of water. There are two sorts of sources, point and nonpoint
sources. Point sources discharge pollutants at specific locations
through pipelines or sewers into the surface water. Nonpoint sources are
sources that cannot be traced to a single site of discharge. Examples
of point sources are factories, sewage treatment plants, underground
mines, oil wells, oil tankers and agriculture while examples of nonpoint
sources are acid deposition from the air, traffic, pollutants that are
spread through rivers and pollutants that enter the water through
groundwater. Nonpoint pollution is hard to control because the
perpetrators cannot be traced.
There are several classes of water pollutants. The first are disease causing agents. These are bacteria, viruses, protozoa and parasitic worms that enter sewage systems and untreated waste. A second category of water pollutants is water soluble inorganic pollutants, such as acids, salts and toxic metals. Large quantities of these compounds will make water unfit to drink and will cause the death of aquatic life. A third class of water pollutants is oxygen demanding wastes, wastes that can be decomposed by oxygen requiring bacteria. When large populations of decomposing bacteria are converting these wastes it can deplete oxygen levels in the water. This causes other organisms in the water, such as fish, to die. Another class of water pollutants are nutrients. They are water soluble nitrates and phosphates that cause excessive growth of algae and other water plants, which deplete the water's oxygen supply. This kills fish and when found in drinking water, can kill young children.

Water can also be polluted by a number of organic compounds such as
oil, plastics and pesticides, which are harmful to humans and all plants
and animals in the water. A very dangerous category is suspended
sediment, because it causes depletion in the water's light absorption
and the particles spread dangerous compounds can cause cancer, birth
defects and genetic damage and are thus very dangerous water pollutants.
In conclusion, I think that water pollution is, without a doubt, a huge
problem in today’s society. If we do not take action now this could lead
to bad news for everyone in many ways. Our drinking water will be
affected and our aquatic organism will be affected, which will
eventually be a risk for humans in many ways. I think that more people
should be concerned with this topic and how they greatly affect our
everyday lives. People should stop taking what they have for granted and
try to help stop this enormous problem before it is too late.
