Answer to Question 1

Answer: Paragraphs can be developed using illustration which would give examples that demonstrate the general idea of the paragraph. They can also be developed using comparison and contrast. This method uses similarities or differences to develop the topic. The third method of paragraph development is cause and effect, which focuses on the reasons for something. Fourth, classification shows how a general idea is broken into specific categories. Finally, using the problem and solution technique allows the writer to present a problem and then discuss the solution.

Use the inverted pyramid style favored by journalists, in which you reveal the most important information briefly at first and then provide successive layers of detail that readers can consume if they want.
