Writing a Personal Letter (continued)

Ways of Developing Paragraphs

You have learned that a personal letter consists of paragraphs which contain topic sentences. You have also learned how important the topic sentence is. You will now learn about ways to develop paragraphs.

There are many ways to develop a paragraph. The most usual way is by using details. Details are the little things that help us to make the paragraph more interesting for the reader. They are:

■ adjectives that help to tell more about persons or things which are expressed by nouns;

■ synonyms that help to find exact words;

■ adverbs and other phrases that help to describe how things happen.

69. Read paragraph 1 and paragraph 2 and say which of them is more interesting to read and why.

Paragraph 1

Two people were in the lift. One was a woman in a jacket. She wore a hat. She held a dog. The other was a man. He wore a coat and a hat.

Paragraph 2

Two passengers stood in the lift. One was a tall, pale woman in a purple jacket. She wore a felt hat. She held tightly her dog, a tiny, dark grey poodle. The other passenger was a young man. He was wearing a yellow raincoat and a soft hat.

Решение 2.

69. Прочитайте параграф 1 и параграф 2 и скажите, какой из них интереснее читать и почему.

Ответ:

Paragraph 2 is more interesting to read because it provides many details that help to imagine the scene. It uses adjectives (tall, pale, purple, tiny, dark grey, young, yellow, soft) and an adverb (tightly) to describe the people, the dog, and their clothes. This makes the text much more vivid and engaging than Paragraph 1, which is very simple and general.

Параграф 2 читать интереснее, потому что в нем много деталей, которые помогают представить сцену. В нем используются прилагательные (высокая, бледная, фиолетовый, крошечный, темно-серый, молодой, желтый, мягкая) и наречие (крепко) для описания людей, собаки и их одежды. Это делает текст намного более живым и увлекательным, чем параграф 1, который очень простой и обобщенный.
