Need inspiration (ideas) :D

[Blade_101]

I need to wright a essay, but I cant think of any good ideas...:banghead:

Was hoping you guys could help me..

sorry if ive done something wrong (im still new here)

well here goes :

You are an engineer tasked with demolishing a railway bridge.
On the day of the demolition a mix up occurs:
A train is approaching and a bus filled with grade R’s (preschoolers) has stalled on the tracks, there isn’t enough time to evacuate the grade R’s

Your options are:
1. To destroy the bridge killing the train driver and the ten members of your demolition crew, saving the grade R’s.
2. To do nothing and allowing the train to strike the bus, which will kill the grade R’s, but save your crew and the train driver.

Explain your choice and what could possibly be the result of your action.

(what would you do in a situation like this?)

Um, so... You want us to think for you? That's kinda pathetic. :/

It's an opinion question. Write whatever you feel is the right thing to do.

What's a grade R?

Calm down lol, i don't want you to go and write a story for me...

I just wanted to hear other ppl's opinions
I know what i would do, maybe you would do something different..

(Grade R = preschool)

I suggest watching "Unstoppable" for the best choice.

I have to say this is a very... dumb... question. Of all the essay questions given for tests or whatever, this must be one of the tops for most-unrealistic. It just doesn't make sense at all.
I would write an essay consisting of neither of those choices. There's no rules saying you have to choose those two, and graders usually like it when they read something unique. What exactly, I haven't figured out yet...

But no, write what you feel as sqrage said. There's no wrong answer. And if the right choice is hard to write about, don't write what you feel is right. Write which ever is easiest to back-up and explain. If it's for points.
