Back to reading/writing skills … PARAGRAPHING  One idea per paragraph (topic sentence/s?)  Space between paragraphs  Avoiding one-sentence paragraphs  Using connectors (linking words) within and between paragraphs if necessary

If this is applied to the text …  One idea per pg.?  General vs. specific sentences?  Topic sentence?  Connectors?

Paragraph structure Ideally …  General statement (e.g. topic sentence – first sentence?)  Supporting sentences (specific)  Concluding sentence

RB:p.66 (paragraphing)  Tourism has become one of the world’s biggest industries. It accounts for 11% of global GDP and employs around 200m people. Estimates suggest that 590 m people travel abroad every year, sometimes several times…. However, in an increasingly dangerous world, especially with an ever present threat of terrorist attack, people may not be willing to travel as much as they used to. For example, after September 11, there are fewer Americans travelling, which has been disastrous for some global tourist economies. The travel industry usually recovers very quickly, but will this always be the case in the future?

Write a paragraph on Galbraith’s text (RB: p.15) 1.Topic sentence 2.Supporting sentence 3.Concluding sentence (your opinion?)

The Three Sectors of the Economy (cont.) PARAGRAPHING (practice)  Explain in a few sentences (one paragraph) what the text is about in terms of the three economic sectors (RB: p.14). Use the following expressions: the primary sector, the secondary sector, the tertiary sector
