Part II: Chapter-by-Chapter Lecture Notes &
Exercises
Chapter 4: Using an Appropriate Style
Teaching Suggestions
This chapter and the next contains a great deal of advice about wring. One foundaonal point deserves
special emphasis: what counts as a good style or even clear wring depends on the situaon. Every
word, sentence, and paragraph needs to be judged in light of the writer’s goals and the readers’ likely
reacons. That is why we focus on “adaptaon” at the start of this chapter.
Illustraon and demonstraon are essenal to students’ understanding of the word-choice advice in this
chapter. The examples on the PowerPoint® slides augment those in the book, and you can add various
examples of your own.
The exercises at the end of the chapter enable students to learn by doing.
