Synopsis
From the book: The text's three parts and the appendixes cover the full array of topics needed for developmental writing. Part One: Writing Sentences includes parts of sentence structure, phrases and clauses, kinds of sentences, sentence combining, sentence problems, pronoun use, modifiers, punctuation, and spelling. Part Two: Writing Paragraphs and Beyond covers the writing process with instructions, examples, demonstrations, and exercises in freewriting, brainstorming, clustering, topic sentence writing, outlining, revising, and editing. Part Three: Connecting Reading and Writing provides guidance in reading critically and writing summaries; practicing reading-related responses; and recognizing patterns such as process, cause and effect, and exemplification. Reading selections by students and professional writers are dually grouped by pattern and theme. Appendixes cover parts of speech, taking tests, writing a letter of application and a resume, and a guide for ESL students.
