Fresno State\u2019s twenty-one-year-old starting quarterback named Mark has been charged for having alcohol and being a minor. Bill, a twenty-one-year-old linebacker, has been charged for obstructing a police officer. A twenty-three-year-old captain of the women\u2019s soccer team named Jessica will face a misdemeanor charge for public intoxication; all three athletes will serve one game suspensions. Mark refused to leave the scene when asked due to the fact that he was a minor. Bill was not being cooperative toward officers by refusing to take a Breathalyzer test. The 23-year old soccer player had a blood alcohol level of 0.136 and the legal driving limit is 0.08. If convicted, all three students could face up to one year in county jail.&nbsp;<\/span>These stories are often in the news about college athletes because they are known more throughout the community, so they are spotted easily than a non-athlete. So any little altercation they get into or law they break they will be picked out and addressed by the authorities or faculty. &nbsp;Athletes also have different motives as to why they drink compared to everyone else because they have different stressors than their counterparts. The consequences an athlete can face are more severe than a member of the student body because there are a series of standards that an athlete has to uphold. The reduction of the amount of alcohol consumption by a student-athlete has to be at a moderate amount due to their involvement and presence at school.<span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">&nbsp;[2] This paper will investigate why this is a recurring phenomenon among college athletes. They consume alcohol more frequently and at a higher quantity as opposed to their colleagues due to their different mentalities.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%2085%2085%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><\/a><\/i><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Susan says: <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[1]<\/span> The writer of this paper uses a list of examples of drunk athletes to help establish how common it is for athletes to be intoxicated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\">Though this list of examples is too long for a shorter paper, because this opening is part of a longer paper, it works well in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/how-to-write-an-essay-introduction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">introduction<\/a>&nbsp;to grab readers\u2019 attention.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%2085%2085%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><\/a><\/i><strong>Susan says: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[2]<\/span> The final two sentences of this paragraph serve as the paper\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/how-to-write-a-thesis-statement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">thesis statement<\/a>.

Athletes drink more than their fellow students because they are put under more pressure. &nbsp;These pressures have multiple causes like the coach asking for optimal performance, as well as balancing classroom expectations (Doumas, Turrisi, Coll, &amp; Haraso, 2007). <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[4] One big reason for the consumption is that they do not know any of the college community due to their regimented school schedule because they have to fit it time for practice throughout the day.&nbsp;<\/span>So it eliminates any flexibility for interaction with anyone outside his or her immediate group. Social norms theory applies to alcohol use in athletes because they generally overestimate what they counterparts are drinking, Perceived norms and acceptability of alcohol use correlate with personal drinking because they are trying to keep up with everyone else (Martens, Dams-O\u2019Connor, Duffy-Paiement, &amp; Gibson ,2006). They are so desperate to fit in that they will do anything it takes to gain that acceptance. &nbsp;Athletes have to deal with unique stressors in comparison with students who are non-athletes. They play more value on opinions and behaviors of those with similar problems because that who is they associate with more during the course of the day (Martens et al.). &nbsp;Research on college drinking has supported the social norm theory. Providing evidence that perceived alcohol usage is exploited mostly among college athletes because of certain reinforcements. <strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">*[5]<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%2085%2085%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><\/a><\/i><strong>Susan says: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[3]<\/span> The writer correctly cites sources in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/apa-essay-format\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">APA format<\/a> by including the author\u2019s last name and the year of publication.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\">If you\u2019re used to MLA format and need a quick refresher, read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/stress-free-mla-essay-format-8th-edition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Stress-Free Guide to MLA Format (8th Edition)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%2085%2085%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><\/a><\/i><strong>Susan says: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[4]<\/span> Watch out for long, rambling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/grammar-rules-blog\/avoid-sticky-sentences-better-writer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sticky sentences<\/a> like this one.

Meaning since an athlete is being demanded to compete at a high caliber for two to three hours during practice as well as games during the weekend. &nbsp;So they need a way to release that stress which comes by way of consuming alcohol. &nbsp;Another motive to drink is a more external reason. They use alcohol as a familiar commodity that they can relate to and enjoy together. The external motive for drinking is to avoid rejection from peers, since athletes only associate with their fellow athletes and if they do not follow along and drink they will be rejected from the athletic group and they will basically be alone throughout their college life. One last internal motive to drink is being criticized and belittled by the coach, which puts them in more of a negative mood. &nbsp;Studies reported that student athletes report high levels of social motives than non-athletes (Perkins, Westley, &amp; David, 2006). As young athletes enter new environments their fellow teammates help determine what attitudes and behaviors are expected to be appropriate. &nbsp;Peer influence is especially significant for highly integrated groups. (Andes, Poet, &amp; McWilliams, 2012) did a study one-alcohol consumption, particularly with regard to high-risk behavior such as drinking games. The athletes drinking may increase drinking as their season increases because there are pressures to be perfect because they may be close to playoffs. In a study done on college athletes, intramural athletes they discovered that they drank more than non-athletes, but there is no difference between intramural athletes and intercollegiate athletes. The amount of sport involvement and increased so did the binge drinking. College athletes have the \u201cwork hard play hard\u201d athletic identity is the extent to which a person identifies with an athletic role so they have the mentality so they fill the need to be the person that drinks the most and who is the alpha male. Individuals with low levels of athletic activity or involvement drink less because they usually don\u2019t get invited. One stigma that follows players is their competitiveness; their competitiveness does not just stay on the field it translates to drinking.

I am a victim of being afraid to fly because of the media. It seems like every time I have to take a plane trip the news shows a horror story on how an engine explodes mid flight or a bomb threat was made. I visit my grandparents every year who live in Florida. After 9\/11 happened I told my grandparents to cancel the plane tickets they had bought because I was too scared to go on the plane. Even though 9\/11 was a great tragedy, and wasn\u2019t necessarily hyped, seeing those images as a child scared me to even step foot on a plane. To this day, whenever the plane takes off or hits some turbulence I grab onto the sides of my chair and hold on. However, the biggest offender of having non factual based fears due to the media is my mom. <strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">*[5]<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My mom did not grow up in the United States so whenever she hears the media\u2019s \u201cprophecy of doom\u201d she believes it. Like Stossel\u2019s friend Nader, my mom has irrational fears because of the media. For example, I am planning to study abroad next semester and my mom tells me it is dangerous or something like the Amanda Knox case could happen to me. Even after I tell her there are hundreds of thousands of kids that study abroad each year and return safely home. However, due to that individual case my mom feels like it is a potential danger that the judiciary system in another country will not be in my favor. <strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">*[6]<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5327 alignleft lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%2085%2085%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt width=\"85\" height=\"85\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1295440.png\"><\/a>Susan says:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">*[5], *[6]<\/span> <\/span><\/strong>These two paragraphs present additional examples of the media exaggerating stories (of plane crashes and being held prisoner in a foreign country).<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 120px;\">Remember, writing an illustration essay means that you\u2019ll need to include a number of examples (just like this essay has) to effectively illustrate that a phenomenon exists.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"tm-tweet-clear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tm-click-to-tweet\">\n<div class=\"tm-ctt-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Writing+an+illustration+essay+means+that+you%E2%80%99ll+need+to+include+a+number+of+examples.&#038;via=kibin&#038;related=kibin&#038;url=https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/2-illustration-essay-examples\/\" target=\"_blank\">Writing an illustration essay means that you\u2019ll need to include a number of examples.<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Writing+an+illustration+essay+means+that+you%E2%80%99ll+need+to+include+a+number+of+examples.&#038;via=kibin&#038;related=kibin&#038;url=https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/2-illustration-essay-examples\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"tm-ctt-btn\">Click To Tweet<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"tm-ctt-tip\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was not very surprised by Stossel\u2019s articles about how the media likes to expose us to improbable but exciting stories.
