Predictable Paragraph Organization: To maintain optimal coherency, organize paragraphs in the way that readers are accustomed. For example, unless there is a compelling reason to do otherwise, place the topic sentence in the first position of the paragraph. The topic sentence appears in the first position of the paragraph 80% of the time in expository writing. Because of this high percentage, readers expect the main idea of the paragraph to be in this position. Similarly, the thesis statement appears 50% of the time as the last sentence in an essay introduction, so follow this practice as well.

Additionally, the Ancient Greeks developed the rhetorical rules for our writing, and these rules dictate that the most important idea in any communication needs to be stated first. Organize paragraphs with customary and traditional structures to be considerate to your reader.

rusak2 [61]

Answer: Two character traits that the narrator demonstrates are insanity and paranoia.

Explanation:

In this short story written by Edgar Alan Poe, the narrator wants to assure us that he is sane, although he has committed a murder. However, it very soon becomes clear to the readers that he is insane. He is obsessed with his roommate's evil eye, which is why he kills him:

"I undid it just so much that a single thin ray fell upon the vulture eye … but I found the eye always closed; and so it was impossible to do the work; for it was not the old man who vexed me, but his Evil Eye."

After killing his roommate, the narrator chops him up. He, however, becomes paranoid, convinced that the dead man's heart is still beating. When the police arrives, he hears a heart beat, and assumes that they can hear it too. He believes that they know his secret and thus confesses to the police:

"Almighty God! --no, no! They heard! --they suspected! --they knew! --they were making a mockery of my horror!-this I thought, and this I think. But anything was better than this agony! Anything was more tolerable than this derision!"
