Adjective Suffixes Paco hadn't seen too much in Chicago yet. The hotel seemed quite comfortable and peaceful. Besides, it was near Lincoln Park, one of the most famous Parks in the city. Although he was told that Chicago could be dangerous at night and that he had to be careful all the time, he thought the city was really attractive with an excellent mixture of different cultures. Anyway, he tried to avoid certain areas, full of homeless people, common criminals and professional delinquents.

A for and against composition A for and against composition looks at both sides of an argument and compares and contrasts them. It states the advantages and disadvantages of this specific argument and, usually at the end, presents the writer's own opinion about it. A successful for and against composition should have: A opening paragraph a short introduction to the general topic. Paragraph 2 presents the advantages or gives arguments for the topic. Paragraph 3 presents the disadvantages or gives arguments against the topic. Final paragraph a short conclusion with your opinion.
