A house is built brick by brick, first the walls are built and then the roof is laid. You can not put up the roof before the walls are built. Thus, in a paragraph you cannot skip from one idea to the next without arranging_them_properly and in a particular order.
Ideas can be arranged in the following ways:-
(i) chronological order:
ADVERTISEMENTS:
This means that ideas have to be presented as they occur in time. Omitting an important event and then going back to it later can be very confusing.
(ii) order of importance:
The writer can begin with the most important idea first and then lead to the least important idea.
OR
ADVERTISEMENTS:
The writer can begin with the least important idea and then lead to the most important idea.
Order of importance is helpful in convincing the reader of a particular point of view.
(iii) order of climax:
ADVERTISEMENTS:
The writer can build suspense leading to climax. In this the climax i.e. the most important idea is put last. Whatever order the writer chooses it is important that the sentences in the paragraph are arranged in a logical sequence.
(iv) logical connection between ideas:
Transition words provide connection between sentences. The most obvious transition words are number words such as:—Firstly, Secondly, Thirdly etc.
Kindly note that these words are avoided by more experienced writers transition words are also used to express the order of arrangement chosen by the writer. Therefore, there can be transition words which mean each of the following — Time, Physical Order, Order of Importance, Similar Ideas, Different Ideas, Conclusion.
