This journal entry will be completed in two parts. In this lesson, you will examine how different sentence types can add variety
and interest to writing. Part of your learning will involve revising your own writing to improve sentence variety. Now, before continuing with the lesson, you will complete the first half of your entry. Write a short, four- to five-sentence paragraph about a topic of your choosing. Then, after you have completed this lesson, come back to the paragraph you wrote. Analyze your writing to identify areas where you could revise using different sentence types to add interest to your work. Revise the paragraph using the techniques you have learned. Your completed journal entry should have both your original and your revised paragraph.
An important component of the writing process is the need to vary your syntax and written rhythms to keep your reader engaged. Such variation includes word choice, tone, vocabulary, and—perhaps more than anything else—sentence structure.
Answer: use rhetorical questions such as “you’re a voter aren’t you?”
Explanation: asking them if they are a voter without them having to reply allows them to question if they are. Being a ‘voter’ is an aspect of your character meaning you are an upstanding citizen and socially active so it will encourage people to vote to be that person
