WRITING 3
1. Description
how to write paragraph with adequate and inadequate cohesion :
The
way to write paragraph with adequate and inadequate cohesion there are three
steps : 1. Topic Sentence, 2. Body or supporting sentence, and 3. concluding
sentence. Explain and support the topic sentence. Develop a paragraph in main
idea. Express this idea in topic sentence. Support the main idea of the
paragraph with details. It
can conclude that paragraph
is a the combination more than 2 sentence in writing which every sentence related each other and
develop on one main idea. And you
should concern the component below : 1.
Relevance 2. Order 3. Linking/Transition words 4.Repetition of key words
2. COHESION
:
All
language tools, which are used to provide links and help in connecting one part
of the sentence, are important in achieving cohesion in the text. It is
difficult to define cohesion but one can visualize it as small sentences adding
up to make for a meaningful text as is the case with many different pieces
fitting together to make for a jigsaw puzzle. For a writer, it is better to
start with text that the reader is already familiar with to make a piece
cohesive. This can also be done with the last few words in a sentence setting
up the next few words at the start of the next sentence.
In
short, the links that stick different sentences and make the text meaningful
can be thought of as cohesion in the text. Establishing connections between
sentences, sections, and even paragraphs using synonyms, verb tenses, time
references etc. is what brings cohesion in a text. Cohesion can be thought of
as glue sticking different parts of furniture so that it takes the shape the
writer wants it to give.
3. Differences
between Coherence and Cohesion :
Cohesion
and coherence are linguistic qualities that are desirable in a text and as such
considered important for all students trying to master a language. It is not
just the awareness of these qualities but also their use in a text that makes
for an important skill for students learning a language. There are many who
think that cohesion and coherence are synonyms and can be used interchangeably.
•
If different sentences in a text are linked properly, it is said to be
cohesive.
•
If a text appears to make sense to a reader, it is said to be coherent.
•
A cohesive text can appear as incoherent to the reader making it clear that the
two properties of a text are not the same.
•
Coherence is a property decided by the reader whereas cohesion is a property of
the text achieved by the writer making use of different tools like synonyms,
verb tenses, time references etc.
• Cohesion
can be measured and verified through rules of grammar and semantics though measuring
coherence is rather difficult.
