What does it mean to have a coherent essay

Writing an academic essay means fashioning a coherent set of ideas into an argument. Because essays are essentially linear—they offer one idea at a time—they must present their ideas in the order that makes most sense to a reader. Successfully structuring an essay means attending to a reader's logic.

The focus of such an essay predicts its structure. It dictates the information readers need to know and the order in which they need to receive it. Thus your essay's structure is necessarily unique to the main claim you're making. Although there are guidelines for constructing certain classic essay types (e.g., comparative analysis), there are no set formula.

Answering Questions: The Parts of an Essay

A typical essay contains many different kinds of information, often located in specialized parts or sections. Even short essays perform several different operations: introducing the argument, analyzing data, raising counterarguments, concluding. Introductions and conclusions have fixed places, but other parts don't. Counterargument, for example, may appear within a paragraph, as a free-standing section, as part of the beginning, or before the ending. Background material (historical context or biographical information, a summary of relevant theory or criticism, the definition of a key term) often appears at the beginning of the essay, between the introduction and the first analytical section, but might also appear near the beginning of the specific section to which it's relevant.

Coherence refers to a certain characteristic or aspect of writing. Literally, the word means "to stick together." Coherence in writing means that all the ideas in a paragraph flow smoothly from one sentence to the next sentence.

Do you prefer solitude or companionship? Explain your answer
marshall27 [118]
Studies show being isolated from others in solitude not only leads to depression but many other health factors. Regardless to what the studies show, I prefer companionship because it brings a different perspective/outlook to your life. They see things you may not see. They for the most part enjoy your company and take you serious. You can't laugh by yourself. I mean you could..but it's not the same...you know?

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

A. are curious about Calpurnia's religion

B. are unaware that the black citizens of Maycomb are denied an education

C. are excited to learn more about Calpurnia's history and community

D. are prejudiced​

Answer:

B. are unaware that the black citizens of Maycomb are denied an education

Explanation:

Scout and Jem did not have much contact with blacks until Calurnia took them to see the community where he lives. There, they managed to understand some things about the lives of blacks, the union between them and the difficulties they were going through. One of the lessons learned was that blacks did not have access to education and therefore, do not know how to read and write. They realized this when they saw that Calpurnia's house did not have hymn books and they did not see the place where she studied.
