Understanding the topic of the essay is a crucial step to do well on the ENEM. The topic is usually a current and relevant social issue that requires in-depth analysis and well-founded discussion. Therefore, it is important that you are up to date on the main topics and social issues that are being discussed in society.

When reading the essay topic, it is important that you not only understand what is being asked, but also the context and depth of the subject. This requires a careful and attentive reading of the theme and the supporting texts provided. Do not rush through this process, as it is essential for a proper understanding of the topic.

A useful strategy for understanding the theme is to break it down into smaller parts. For example, if your theme is "The impact of social networks on Brazilian society", you can divide it into several parts, such as "social networks", "impact" and "Brazilian society". Then try to understand what each part means individually and how they relate to each other to form the complete theme.

Another useful strategy is to ask questions about the topic. For example, what exactly is meant by "impact"? What aspects of "Brazilian society" are being referred to? What kind of "social networks" are being discussed? Asking these questions can help you better understand the topic and guide your response.

In addition, it is important that you understand the type of essay being requested. In ENEM, the essay is an argumentative-dissertation text, which means that you must present a thesis (your opinion on the subject), arguments that support it and a conclusion. So, as you understand the topic, think about how you can structure your essay to meet these requirements.

Finally, remember that understanding your essay topic is just the first step. You also need to be able to develop a well-reasoned and coherent discussion of the topic that is relevant and interesting to the reader. Therefore, once you understand the topic, start planning your essay, thinking about the main ideas you want to express and the arguments you will use to support them.

In summary, understanding the essay topic is a crucial step to do well on the ENEM. It requires a careful and attentive reading of the topic, an in-depth analysis of the subject and a clear understanding of the type of essay being requested. With proper practice and preparation, you can become proficient in understanding and responding to ENEM essay topics.
