Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student is writing an argumentative essay about the importance of preserving Caribbean coral reefs. Which of the following would be the MOST effective technique to begin the introduction?

  1. Stating the thesis immediately without any context
  2. Beginning with a striking statistic about coral reef decline in the Caribbean
  3. Writing a long paragraph about the history of marine biology
  4. Starting with 'In this essay I will discuss...'
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — Beginning with a striking statistic about coral reef decline in the Caribbean
Award 1 mark for identifying that a striking statistic engages the reader and establishes relevance. A is incorrect because introductions require context before the thesis. C is incorrect because excessive background delays the focus. D is incorrect because formulaic openings are considered weak in extended writing.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 2/3

Read the following introduction written by a student in Trinidad about sugar cane farming: 'Sugar cane has been grown in the Caribbean for centuries. Today, many farmers still depend on this crop. Climate change is affecting sugar cane production. This essay will examine the impact of climate change on sugar cane farming in Trinidad.' What is the MAIN weakness of this introduction?

  1. It lacks a clear thesis statement
  2. It lacks an engaging hook to capture the reader's attention
  3. It contains too much statistical data
  4. It uses informal language inappropriate for academic writing
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — It lacks an engaging hook to capture the reader's attention
Award 1 mark for identifying the absence of an engaging hook. The introduction begins with general statements but lacks a compelling opening to draw the reader in. A is incorrect because the final sentence functions as a thesis. C is incorrect because no statistics are present. D is incorrect because the language is appropriately formal.
