Above all, a paragraph must have a center namely thematic thought, this center by the theme sentence especially among them problem aim will convey. Whole paragraph must buckle this theme closely (Stick Or Hold To The Topic) , the oneness that this is paragraph (Unity) . Next, a paragraph must have a certain number of pushing to exhibit sentence, make thematic thought gets spreading out adequately, give a reader a whole sense thereby, this is integrality (Completeness Or Adequateness) . Moreover, a paragraph is not desultorily, combine organicly however, sentential permutation is ordinal must logical, from the transition of a sentence to another sentence must fluent (Smooth) , this is continuity (Coherence) . We are opposite below these 3 standards try to explain respectively.
1, oneness
Each sentences inside a paragraph must be subject to a center, any dissociate at the sentence besides clou cannot take. See next examples please:
Joe And I Decided To Take The Long Trip We'd Always Wanted Across The Country. We Were Like Young Kids Buying Our Camper And Stocking It With All The Necessities Of Life. Bella Bakes The Best Rhubarb Pie. We Started Out In Early Spring From Minneapolis And Headed West Across The Northern Part Of The Country. We Both Enjoyed Those People We Met At The Trailer Park. Joe Received A Watch At His Retirement Dinner. To Our Surprise, we Found That We Liked The Warm Southern Regions Very Much, and So We Decided To Stay Here In New Mexico.
This paragraph theme sentence be paragraph first, controlling Idea (clou) it is Take The Long Trip Across The Country. Two Irrelevant Sentences appear in article, one is Bella Bakes The Best Rhubarb Pie, this paragraph is those who tell is Joe And I, a Bella appearing among is improper. Still have, joe Received A Watch At His Retirement Dinner is this one more with the theme sentence not relevant. See a case again:
My Name Is Roseanna, and I Like To Keep Physically Fit. I Used To Weigh Two Hundred Pounds, but I Joined The YMCA For An Exercise Class And Diet Program. In One Year I Lost Eighty Pounds. I Feel Much Better And Never Want To Have That Much Weight On My Five-feet Frame Again. I Bought Two New Suitcases Last Week. Everyday I Practice Jogging Three Miles, swimming Fifteen Laps, lifting Twenty-pound Weights And Playing Tennis For One Hour. My Mother Was A Premature Baby.
This paragraph Controlling Idea is Like To Deep Physically Fit, but paragraph in have two Irrelevant Sentences, one is I Bought Two New Suitcases Last Week, another is My Mother Was A Premature Baby.
From above two example can see, native Speakers can be built likewise come out Irrelevant Sentences. Roll face if this kind of sentence is much,go up, create a catch question or excursive, that problem is more serious.
2, integrality
Just as says before us in that way, the thematic thought of a paragraph relies on to push exhibit sentence will come true, if have a theme only sentence and did not push exhibit sentence will be explained further and be enriched, cannot make a complete phase. Same, although have,push exhibit sentence, but thematic thought did not get relatively satisfactory explain, give a reader a kind of idea still unexhausted feeling. Such paragraph also cannot fulfil its intercourse function. For example:
