Jeanette Pierce sat at her desk. It was almost midnight and she was really worried. "I'll never finish this term paper," she thought. "I can't think of any good ideas. I'm so bored with his topic. How can I write five pages about it?
Jeanette started to cry. She was exhausted, but she couldn't sleep now. All night she was busy studying for her math and English tests. Now she had to write a history term paper about the Roman Empire. It seemed impossible.
At 1:00 a.m., Jeanette was panicked. She had to give her term paper to her teacher in a few hours. She didn't even have one page.
Maybe I can get some ideas on the Internet," Jeanette thought. She began searching for helpful Wed sites. An advertisement went across the top of her screen. "Term Paper Trouble?" it read. "Click here."
"Why not?" thought Jeanette. She clicked on the advertisement. A Web site that sold term papers came onto the screen. For just a few dollars, she could buy a paper. One of the papers for sale was about the Roman Empire. It sounded perfect. It was even five pages long.
"I'll never be able to write anything good by morning," Jeanette thought. "I'll buy the paper, read it, and get some ideas on what to write."
Jeanette bought the paper and downloaded it onto her computer. It was 2:00 a.m. "Maybe I should just give this paper to the teacher," Jeanette thought. "Oh, no one will know." She typed her name on the top of the paper and printed it. Then she went to bed.
