The conclusion (the fifth paragraph) should also contain your thesis statement, either as a restatement of the thesis statement in your first paragraph or as a paraphrase of it.

For comparison, you should use some of these transition words: (just) as, (just) like, alike, same, both, equally, resemble, likewise, in like fashion, in like manner, (in) the same way, and (in) common. For contrast, you should use some of these words: but, yet, however, although, nevertheless, still, instead (of), in contrast, on the other hand, on the contrary, converse(ly), opposite, even though, as opposed to, in spite of, despite, rather than , difference, different(ly), differ from, unlike, and while.

Start the third paragraph with the word \u201cSecond.\u201d3. The fourth paragraph should begin with the word \u201cFinally.\u201d4. The fifth paragraph should start with the words \u201cIn conclusion.\u201d<br \/>\nI do not want you to use the phrase \u201cin my opinion\u201d in this essay. You should only use the following pronouns if you are answering question # 3 (the third topic I have given you from which to choose) and then only for the last parts of this question\/topic: \u201cI\u201d, \u201cme\u201d, \u201cmy\u201d, \u201cmine\u201d , and \u201cmyself\u201d. If you answer either one of the other questions (#\u2019s 1 or 2 from the selection of essay topics), please do not use any of the aforementioned pronouns.
