<p>I think I meet some tough essay topics. I can't come up with proper examples for them. Please help me! Time is running out for SAT in December!</p>
<p>1.Prompt
There is no more powerful way to initiate significant change in our communities, our
society, and our lives than to start talking to others. When people discover that they share
a common concern, that is when the process of change begins. Change does not start
with an individual leader of a group, a nation, or an organization announcing a new plan.
It begins when a group of people notices something that could, or even must, be done
differently.
Adapted from Margaret J. Wheatley, "Some Friends and I Started Talking..."</p>
<p>Assignment: Is a group of people more likely than an individual leader to bring about
significant change? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on
this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading,
studies, experience, or observations.</p>

Most people are so impressed by facts and objectivity that they do not appreciate the use
of imagination. They worry that our imaginations get us away from reality, distort our views
and perspectives, and, worst of all, are unscientific. As a result, using our imagination
and other related activities such as appreciating art or music or being creative are often
considered the "frosting"the nice extras in liferather than vital pursuits that are crucial
to everyone.
Adapted from Rollo May, The Courage to Create</li>
