3) Potential research topics

Choose five topics that you think are potential research topics for your paper and briefly (in 2 to 5 sentences) explain why these topics are of interest to you.

1. The topic of abortion is interesting to me because I feel it's inhumane and wrong. Fetuses never asked to be here and they have rights. Basically everyday a innocent life is taken away.

2. The topic of animal cruelty is interesting to me because I feel wrong and animals have rights also. Animals are like human beings and have no reason to be abused, used in fights and/or starved to death.

3. Tabacco Advertising is important because smoking is a filthy and disgusting habit. Smokers can give companies free advertisment by posting photos on social media while using cigarettes. 

4. Teens and Driving is a big issue because most car deaths occur within teenagers. Teens tend to text and be with others teens and counts as a distarction.

5. Zoo's is an important topic to me because animals want to live free and not be used as human entertainment. I feel bad because animals are basically imprisomed for the rest of their lives and some of us deep down desire that their freedom be given to them.

What "ticks you off"?

2) What "ticks you off"?

Make a list of four or five things that "tick you off." Explain why. (Choose significant things that others might experience as well. For instance, your little brother might tick you off, but there is little chance that this annoyance will yield a possible paper topic). It is possible that one of these annoyances can be transformed into an interesting, engaging, and researchable project.
