PG. 103 #1-4 A Practice Sequence: Building a Thesis.

1.

To make sure that your issue is current and relevant and should be present in people's minds, you should make the paper interesting and to keep the topic at the top of people's minds you should state facts from other sources along with quotes. Make sure to also include why you believe it is an important and relevant issue.

in order to do the above you may also need to know whether or not your issue is still present in the media and with others.

2.

When writing on a current issue you are expected to have some type of prior knowledge on what you are to be touching on. You should also be able to show that there is an exsisting problem within the subject that you are presenting.

NIAAA Publications stated that Alcohol intake among young adults has risen through out the years and is a leading cause in accidents and death, due to impairment. Also that more men than women in the category od young adults go over the drinking limit, in which this mostly takes place in college camous housing. Heavy drinking in the young adult age group is also considered a high risk in the dealth department becuase at that age risky behaviors while drining are more likely to occur.
NIAAA Publications also includes maps on the ethnicity and drinking rate of young adults.

On Noldus.com with an article called What brings about the alcohol consumption of young adults in peer groups? by Sander Bot and Rutger Engels. Talks about how most drinking with young adults accurs within a social setting. The research results that they had come up with showed that within a social setting the intake of alcohol in males depending on the drinkign status af the whole group while females drank independently without the influence of the group.

I believe that Sander Bot and Rutger Engels should have thought through with their findings, becuase not all females drink for only themselves and are not dependent on the group some females who are possibly shy may drink comtinuosly to keep up and fit in with the group at the party or to just appear as 'cool'.

To learn more on this subject I could contact the authors of the webpage and of the research. If that were to fail I could always just look online for more research that shows both sides of the story.

Misinterpretations Model:
Although many scholars have argued young adult femal drinkers independently drink and only do it for themselves a careful examination suggets that, tha may not be the case but that, many females are heavy social drinkers and will do it to fit in with the crowd.

Gap model:
Although scholars have noted females to be indepent drinkers who only order for themselves, they have missed the importance of females drinkers who overstep their drinking boundaries due to being in social settings that do not enable them to stop since the others in the setting are still drinking and the femal may not want to 'wimp out.'

Modification Model:
Although I agree with females being noted to only order drinkd for themselves and to be independent drinkers ideasof other writers, it is important to refine their ideas with the point that many females that go out drinking in a social setting tend to drink just like the guys, per say.

I believe that the misinterpretation model fits best with this subject.
