Key Words for Your Topic You will need to find information on your country from a book. The index is usually the easiest way to see if your book has the information you need (that way you can read a few pages without having to read the whole thing). Key words can help you to find pages that may be helpful. It’s best to come up with at least two other words you can search for, for each category of information. Click on the words in bold to see why they are possible key words. Land Work For the word People, click on the group of two words that would be appropriate key words. Mountains Mountains can be found on the land. Islands Islands are pieces of land on the water. Labor Labor is another word for work. Jobs Jobs are types of work. Population & Marriage Yes. Population is how many people there are and marriage is between people. Government and Livestock No. Government is about laws and livestock is about animals.
