The difficulty for essay 1and essay 2 is not based on their title, the difficuty is that when you heard the topic, if you there were some ideas came to your mind. Therefore, essay 2 is more difficult for me, when I heard this topic, I had no idea about it. However, essay 1 is more much easier, because I can talk about my own opinions and  stories. Essay 2 is about cause/effect, it was difficult to talk about it without using outside sources, I should write it all depend on  all my experience. That’s the reason essay 2 is more difficult for me.
