Writing Test Hints
WRITE INTERESTING SENTENCES
Beware of sentences that are too simple and too obvious. Good sentences inform the reader, and are,
therefore, interesting to read. However, do not write unnecessarily complex sentences, and do not
use a word unless you are quite sure of what it means. It is better to use simple words correctly than
complex words incorrectly. Consider the following topic sentence:
"There are many rich and poor countries in the world".
It makes a statement that is much too general in content and is obviously true. Although no-one
would argue with the truth of the statement, it is not an informative or interesting sentence to read.
"There' are many more poor countries than rich countries, yet the latter are in
possession of almost all of the world's economic wealth".
Note that the second sentence answers at least
3 wh/how questions:
Which countries? ...
rich and poor
How many (rich and poor) countries? ...
many more poor countries than rich
