UFS 211 4th Task

There are few stages of 'Writing Process' such as getting ideas, organizing ideas, writing draft, revising, editing, and completing the paragraph. Besides including the stages of 'Writing Process' in your essay, you also have to recognize what are your topic sentences, supporting sentences and concluding sentences.

Usually, most of the topic sentences are ideas for making a point. For example, this text:


Eun Hee and I met in high school. When I left Korea, she cried. Eun Hee works at General Hospital, and she is never absent from work. She likes to take care of the patients, but she doesn’t like the doctors. She says they don’t respect the nurses. One doctor always shouts at the nurses. On the weekends, she goes to the mountains or visits an interesting place. Eun Hee is very active. If there is something that she wants to do, she does it. She is cheerful and talkative. When I had a long face and was sad, she talked cheerfully to me. Eun Hee is tall and very thin. She has small, brown eyes and long, curly dark brown hair. She looks like Olive Oyl in the Popeye cartoons. Olive Oyl is Popeye’s girlfriend. Sometimes, when my friends and I were serious , she told jokes to us. I love her, and I want to see her again soon.

The topic sentence or point for this text is Eun Hee and I met in high school. 
It is to decide what you want to say to support your topic based on your reaction to the text.

Every topic sentence must have supporting sentence in order to support your main topic or give more information about your main topic. So, the supporting sentence or information for this text are When I left Korea, she cried. Eun Hee works at General Hospital, and she is never absent from work. She likes to take care of the patients, but she doesn’t like the doctors. She says they don’t respect the nurses. One doctor always shouts at the nurses. On the weekends, she goes to the mountains or visits an interesting place. Eun Hee is very active. If there is something that she wants to do, she does it. She is cheerful and talkative. When I had a long face and was sad, she talked cheerfully to me. Eun Hee is tall and very thin. She has small, brown eyes and long, curly dark brown hair. She looks like Olive Oyl in the Popeye cartoons. Olive Oyl is Popeye’s girlfriend. Sometimes, when my friends and I were serious , she told jokes to us.

Last but not least, every paragraph must have a concluding sentence. A concluding sentence is to explain the readers about the main ideas and enable them to understand more clearly. The concluding sentence for this text is I love her, and I want to see her again soon.
