Next you need to set out the 3 reasons clearly. This will give you the basis for an opening statement (paragraph 1) as below.

Landing on the moon has never happened again in the 40 years since || It was technically possible to create a hoax but technically impossible to go to the moon || America wanted to be a super power and what better way to do it than be the first to the moon || By using your findings above you can now write your opening statement Opening statement It is clearly the biggest hoax of the last century.  Man has never been to the moon and we have yet to see it happen. It has been 40 odd years since the moon landing was faked. Technology has gone ahead in leaps and bounds and yet we still don't go to the moon. How can this be possible? There was definitely enough technology to pull off a hoax. Was there enough technology to get us to the moon? No way! I think not.  Evidence shows that America was a country fighting to be the super power of the world. Russia was advancing their technology at an alarming rate and America had to come up with a way to state their claim to being a powerful force in the world. What better way than to fake a landing on the moon?
 * The Moon landing was definitely a hoax ||
 * Reason 1

 * Reason 3
