Writing — Essay structure

Exercise 1

1. Read the following steps for writing a good essay

1. The Introduction

The first paragraph has two main jobs:

a) Hook the reader: Grab their attention with an interesting sentence.

b) Thesis statement: Tell the reader exactly what your essay will be about.

Example: Many people enjoy sports for different reasons. My favorite sport is football because it is fun to play, it teaches teamwork, and it keeps me healthy.

2. The Body Paragraphs

Write at least two or three paragraphs.

Each paragraph focuses on one single idea that supports your main point.

Start each paragraph with a topic sentence.

After the topic sentence, give reasons and examples.

Body Paragraph 1: Playing football is a lot of fun. I enjoy running around with my friends and trying to score goals. It is a very exciting game.

Body Paragraph 2: Football is also great for learning teamwork. To win, everyone on the team has to work together and communicate. We learn to help each other.

Body Paragraph 3: Finally, football is a good way to stay healthy. You have to run a lot during the game, which is excellent exercise for your body. It helps me stay fit and strong.

3. The Conclusion

Restate your thesis in a new way.

Briefly mention the main ideas from your body paragraphs.

Finish with a final thought about the topic.

Example: In conclusion, football is a fantastic sport. It's clear that playing football is not only a fun and exciting activity but also an excellent way to learn teamwork and stay in shape.

A. In conclusion, dogs make wonderful pets because they offer companionship, protection, and are fun to be with.

C. My dog is not only my best friend but also a loyal protector of my home.

D. Dogs are great pets for many reasons.

E. First, dogs are excellent companions. They are always happy to see you and love to play.

Correct order (e.g. D, C, E, B, A):

Answer: D (intro/thesis) → C (thesis restatement/hook) → E (body 1) → B (body 2) → A (conclusion)

Ministry order: 4 → 3 → 5 → 2 → 1 (D, C, E, B, A)

Exercise 3

3 Read the essay below. Underline the thesis statement once and the topic sentences twice

People have different ideas about the best season of the year. For me, summer is the best season because the weather is warm and I can enjoy many outdoor activities.

First, I love the warm weather of summer. It is sunny almost every day, and I don't need to wear a heavy jacket. This makes it easy to go outside and feel comfortable.

In addition, summer is a great time for outdoor activities. I can go to the beach, swim in the sea, and have picnics with my family.

In short, summer is my favorite season. The warm weather and the chance to do fun things outside make it the most enjoyable time of the year.
