HELP ASAP Is this a good argument essay?




Telling the truth is very important all the time because you want people to trust you and be trust worthy, you can make better friendships, and it makes people feel happy. Especially when you meet a new person you don’t want to lie your gonna want to tell the truth because you want to create a good impression. You want your name to be clear and be seen as a better person. I have learned from my own experience. In my elementary years I used to lie but I’m learning and growing from my mistakes. Now I want people to see me for who I truly am ,instead of seeing the fake side of myself. And now I know that telling the truth is better than lying.


Also telling the truth can make better friendships, because people would want to be around you more. I also want my friends to be trust worthy and not lying to me. I have experienced it before when a friend lied to me and that did not make me feel good, like I didn’t matter to them. In friendships I believe that you and your friend should be trust worthy all the time.



Telling the truth will make people happy and trust you more. I put a smile on my grandmas face when I told the truth and that made me happy too. And I want people to know that I can be an honest person. People now know that they can trust me in a friendship.



As you may see telling the truth is the best opinion.

Read the passage from “Initiation.”

"Get up, gopher," Bev ordered.

There was something about her tone that annoyed Millicent. It was almost malicious. And there was an unpleasant anonymity about the label "gopher," even if that was what they always called the girls being initiated. It was degrading, like being given a number. It was a denial of individuality.

Rebellion flooded through her.

"I said get up. Are you deaf?"

Millicent got up, standing there.

"Into the house, gopher. There's a bed to be made and a room to be cleaned at the top of the stairs."
