Eighty words isn't an essay. It's a few sentences - a paragraph or two. Enough to **express one short idea** , but not to develop or explore it. **You should therefore have a clear idea of what it is you want to say, and say just that.** If you wish to provide an example to illustrate your point, pick one that would be familiar to the reader, and thus fit into one sentence. Background, conflicting interpretations, discussion, consequences - no room for that. (The above is exactly 80 words.)
