Change of focus detailed description is given below.

Explanation:

CHANGE OF FOCUS WHILE WE ARE WRITING: It is a technique that allows the writer to introduce new ideas about a specific theme. To change the focus it has to be a relationship between the two main ideas, but the change will be evident.

As we already have seen, it exists eight types of focus: time, place, action, mood, point of view, speaker, idea or step; following them, we will having one focus in each paragraph.

In our exercise, we have to create an example with a focus change. The MAIN THEME will be DAY OF THE DEAD IN MEXICO. Then, we can proceed to answer our questions (will be answering one by one to make things clearer):

1. WHAT IS THE MAIN IDEA OF YOUR FIRST PARAGRAPH?

It will be what does the day of the dead represents in Mexico (dates, most common celebrations, etcetera).

2. WHAT IS THE MAIN IDEA OF YOUR SECOND PARAGRAPH?

It will be what I think about the day of the dead.

3. WHICH OF THE EIGHT TYPES OF FOCUS WILL YOU USE TO CHANGE THE FOCUS OF THE SECOND PARAGRAPH?

I’ll be using POINT OF VIEW change because I will be introducing my personal opinions by the same time.

Now, here is an example:

PARAGRAPH ONE: Day of the dead is an important celebration in Mexico, because in this country, due to their indigene roots, they have the tradition of seeing the dead as a feast day; thus, they are used to cook special food, spend time with their families and even go to cemeteries to spend time with their relatives that are already dead. Despite dead is a difficult stage in human life, Mexicans resign its meaning and have fun while they remember all those aren’t here anymore. These celebrations occur in November 1st and 2nd. Coco is a movie made by Disney that perfectly shows how Mexican culture sees and live these days.

PARAGRAPH TWO: To have a couple of days that allows us to remember all the people that we have lost and we miss and even to believe that they come back to spend some hours with us is a beautiful belief that should be adopted in all the countries because Mexican changed and redefined the idea of sadness and lost. It is important for mental health to make things the easiest we can in order to be happier and drop what hurts us.
