Paragraph Cohesion Exercise

C) The chat room is a good tool to use inside and outside the classroom. Chat rooms provide a break from the school environment, a stress release, and allow a space to meet people. These people can be from all over the world, or even your next door neighbor. Chat rooms are also very effective resources because they have allowed me to converse with other members of my biology class to discuss lectures and labs. A lot of classes on campus have chat rooms set up privately for only the students registered in that class.

D) In LA, the use of dogs in the police force has been rejected and the use of weapons is preferred. During the Watts riots, officers employed guns as means of protection: some looters and perpetrators were killed. Clearly, dogs are a more suitable and effective alternative to weapons. The purpose of canines in the police force is to provide an alternative to excessive and deadly force. Although suspects have claimed to be badly bitten, tese cases are extremely rare compared to the many documented good deeds and rescues involving human lives performed by canines. At UCLA, canines were first introduced in 1979 to aid university officers in protecting the saftey of students from nearby gangs. The gangs relocated due to the use of canines.
