1. Give description on how to write paragraph with adequate and inadequate cohesion.

1.   How the way to write paragraph with adequate and inadequate unity.

          If you write a paragraph, you should consists of : The topic sentence, supporting sentence, and conluding sentence, because it’s the secrets to make paragraph. Which when used correctly, can make a okay paragraph into a great paragraph.

       Unity in a

 paragraph begins with the topic sentence. Every paragraph has one single, controlling idea that is expressed in its topic sentence, which is typically the first sentence of the paragraph. A paragraph is unified around this main idea, with the supporting sentences providing detail and discussion.

2.  Coherence is the quality that makes your writing understandable sentences within a paragraph need to connect to each other and work together as whole one of the best ways to achieve cohorenchy is to use transition word. These words create bridges from one sentence to the next.

3. Cohesion is determined by lexcically and grammatically overt intersentential relationships, whereas coherence is based on smantic relationships. Cohesion can be thought of as all the grammatical and lexical links that lnk one part of a discourse to another. This includes use of synonyms, tenses, time refrence, etc. For example : it, neither, and this all refer to an idea previously mentioned first of all, then, and after that,help to sequence in addition and for istance link ideas and arguments in a discourse. 

4. Tell more about cohesion

A. Cohesion across paragraphs

Paragraphs must follow in a sequential and logical order. In other words, the information must be presented coherently. In good writing, the ideas in different paragraphs are also usually linked linguistically using cohesive devices. These include: use of synonyms, pronouns, verb tenses, time references, and grammatical reference. In the previous unit, we saw how these devices operated between sentences.

ü  All the supporting sentence connect to each other and the topic sentence.

ü  Use COHESIVE DEVICES:

ü  Connectors : and, but, so, when, in addition, before,

ü  Devinite articles

ü  Personal pronouns : he, she, they etc.

ü  Demonstrative pronouns : this, these, that, those etc.

How is cohesion different from coherence?

ü  It is difficult to separate the two. However, think of coherence  as a discourse making sense as a whole at an ideas level, and cohesion as rather more mechanical links at language level. You can imagine that it is possible for a place of writting to contain plenty of cohesion yet little coherence.

ü  Cohesion is the glue that holds a place of writting together, in other words, if a paper is cohesive, it sticks together from sentence to sentence and from paragraph to paragraph. Cohesive devices certainly include transitional words and phrases such as therefore, furtheremore, or for instance, that clarify for listeener/readers the relationships among ideas in a place of writting. However, transitions aren’t enough to make writing cohesive. Repetition of key word and use of referene words are also needed for cohesive

5. You should explain why your text or sentence that you underline is categorized into cohesion.

FOR  more give knowledge about how to make good paragraph with cohesion in addition, The underline words and phrases in the following texts show how cohesion is achieved, both within paragraphs and between paragraphs.
