THE BELOW IS INFORMATION ABOUT MY INTRODUCTION: The introduction provides a background to your study that explains clearly the focus of the study. Define and contextualise the focus/issue/topic of the research and substantiate with references. Background of the study: Oil prices are very important in the world.
