INTRODUCTION IN ESSAY

THURSDAY-23.6.2011-We were learn how to make an introduction in an essay. The parts of the introductory paragraph can be divided into 3 that is The Hook, The Transition and The Thesis. The Hook is designed to grab attention immediately and give some indication about the essay’s topic.The Transition is moves the reader from the hook to the driving force of the essay. The Thesis makes the contract with the reader about what will be discussed without a blatant announcement. The Hook can  be divided into 7 that is personal examples, quotations, facts or statistics, rhetorical questions, current events, contrast to the thesis statement and definition. Personal examples provides strong, dramatic incidents to use. Other than that, the content of quotation must be dramatic, emotionally appealing, surprising and humorous. Using Facts or Statistics,it must be startling or unusual must be from a credible source  and use journal as a place to record both quotes and facts or statistics that might work for an introduction. By using rhetorical question,it must be begin with the questions as the topic. By using current events it must be recent, must be important and should be made public by newspapers, television, or radio. By using contrast,it must direct contrast to the thesis statement. It’s fun to prove an expert wrong. Using definition is giving definition.
