In this lesson, you will learn about "following structure through connecting words," one of the most important skills for reading critical essays. The goal is not to memorize words alone, but to be able to explain the structure and reasons in your own words.
Key Point
By arranging paragraphs while preserving the relationships indicated by connecting words, you can reconstruct the order of reasons, counterarguments, and conclusions.
