(1) I can hear the train whistle blowing and see the Hogwarts Express chugging along as I read. (2) I usually like reading fantasy books, so I knew I would like
them, but I had no idea they would turn into my favorite books of my 10-year old
life. (3) I finished Sorcerer's Stone very quickly and then began to devour
Chamber of Secrets. (4)Initially, my favorite character was Ron. (5) That was only
until Prisoner of Azkaban was released. (6) After that, Sirius Black immediately
became my new favorite character. (7) I loved the stories so much, I even played
the Harry Potter Video games, so I could feel like I was at Hogwarts walking
through portraits and waving my wand while saying "Wingardium Leviosa." (8)
Although the movies helped to keep the magic alive after the books were
finished, I wish there would be more magical stories written about Harry Potter
for me to visualize the world and characters in my head. 1. Which sentence
should Mary add after sentence 8 to create the most effective closing/conclusion
for her paper?
O A. After I read the Harry Potter books, I continued to read other fantasy books
O B. Do you have a favorite character from a book you enjoy?
O C. The video games were almost as much fun to play as the books were to read.
D. Maybe when I grow up I can write books like Harry Potter that bring children's
imaginations to life

domain – some domains such as .com, .org, and .net can be purchased and used by any individual. however, the domain .edu is reserved for colleges and universities, while .gov denotes a government website. these two are usually credible sources for information (though occasionally a university will assign a .edu address to each of its students for personal use, in which case use caution when citing). be careful with the domain .org, because .org is usually used by non-profit organizations which may have an agenda of persuasion rather than education.
