Reading writing skills a good expository essay is marked by a strong connection between its general assertions and the specific examples used to support that assertion. Usually, when writing we begin with a generalization and then support it with specifics. However, it is not always necessary to follow this order (example in text A) The author starts with a specific example of changing one's point of view to solve the problem. -He moves on to present the problem with our thinking. Then he gives a generalization of the example

anguage points How to Change your Point of view By Caroline seebohm 1 Dr Edward Jenner was busy trying to solve the problem of smallpox. After studying case after case, he still found no possible cure. He had reached an impasse in his thinking. At this point, he changed his tactics. Instead of focusing on people who had smallpox, he switched his attention to people who did not have smallpox. It turned out that dairy maids apparently never got the disease. From the discovery that harmless cowpox gave protection against deadly smallpox came vaccination and the end of smallpox as a scourge in the western world 心

anguage points 3 Dr. Jenner, however, did something about this situation He stopped fighting the problem and simply changed his point of view from his patients to dairy maids. Picture the process going something like this: Suppose the brain is a computer. This computer has absorbed into its memory bank all your history, your experiences, your training, your information received through life and it is programmed according to all this data, To change your point of view, you must reprogram your computer, thus freeing yourself to take in new ideas and develop new ways of looking at things. Dr. Jenner, in effect, by reprogramming his computer, erased the old way of looking at his smallpox problem and was free to receive new alternatives 心
