Please follow the following directions carefullyfor this research paper.The paper should not exceed 1,600 words.The paper has to be based on the attached outline, thus you cannot deviate and do not change the thesis.
Thesis (the question you want to answer) has to have two parts:
(part 1)The Egyptian Revolution was the result of tenacious planning and execution of strategies by Jamal Abdelnasser and the Free Officers Movement leaders including Muhammad Naguib and Abdel Hakim Amer who exploited key opportunities and seized the momentum to overthrow the monarchy…(part 2) and briefly now summarize in one or two sentences the four evidences in the outline (you are trying to show the reader that the essay is based on evidences 1 – 4 only).
So start with judgment (part 1), then say how you will do prove it in brief words (part 2); example:
(part 1) It is bad to use Lulu Soap on cars; (part 2) because(evidence 1) it cased stains on the new car, (evidence 2) it had a bad smell on the new car, (evidence 3) it allowed the dirt to stick on the car.

The research paper should have a total of 5 paragraphs only. There are 4 evidences in the outline, thus choose any two evidences and combine them in one paragraph, so you have a total of 3 body paragraphs and an overall total of 5 paragraphs in the paper.
A. Introduction (what will you tell the reader) – approx. 250 words
– start with a brief story, quotation, idea, fact, a general idea…etc. anything that will put the reader in the context of the topic or that might attract the attentionwhere each sentence should gradually become more specific leading the reader to your argument
– THE INTRODUCTION MUST VIEW THE BIG PICTURE (like a quick movie trailer)
– then the thesis statement (your argument) must be the last part of the introduction paragraph
B. body 1; evidence one (you told the reader) – approx. 360 words
– you made your judgment in the introduction, based on the judgment the body will unfold the judgment supported with sources as evidence (by using facts, examples, quotes); here you are like a lawyer justifying your self
– start the body with a topic sentence “first” then details
– you have to cite any idea that does not belong to you(but do not use “many” quotations)
C. body 2; evidence two (you told the reader) – approx. 360 words
– you made your judgment in the introduction, based on the judgment, the body will unfold the judgment supported with sources as evidence (by using facts, examples, quotes); here you are like a lawyer justifying your self
– start the body with a topic sentence “first” then details
– you have to cite any idea that does not belong to you (but do not use “many” quotations)
D. body 3; evidence three and four combined (you told the reader) – approx. 360 words
– you made your judgment in the introduction, based on the judgment, the body will unfold the judgment supported with sources as evidence (by using facts, examples, quotes); here you are like a lawyer justifying your self
– start the body with a topic sentence “first” then details
– you have to cite any idea that does not belong to you (but do not use “many” quotations)
E. conclusion (telling the reader again briefly but maturely) – approx. 200-250 words
– you said everything in the 3 bodies, now summarize / review in one short paragraphthe main points of your argument and wrap up using more sophisticated and mature words / description because you have explained everything above so now in the conclusion be more sophisticated in the terminology you use; be careful not to restate exactly
