HOW effective is the first paragraph in engaging the reader on the topic of Goodall? (A)
Effective; including background information provides necessary details that
are referenced throughout the rest of the article.
Effective; providing direct quotes helps the reader deeply understand
Goodall's goals and hints at how she achieved them.
(B)
(C)
Ineffective; stating that Goodall "dreamt as a boy" suggests that the article
will be about Goodall's fight as a female scientist, which it is not.
(D)
Ineffective; listening too many facts about Goodall confuses the main point
because readers are not given a clear focus.

it is true my friend

write a five paragraph essay, you were taught to have three body paragraphs. a university essay is more flexible than that, depending on its length and on what it is trying to say. a short university essay may have three body paragraphs, but it may have more.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…
