Crafting Paragraph Connections within Sample Text 1:

I. THE EFFECTS OF CONNECTING PARAGRAPHS IN TEXTS

Question 1.

Both passages depict the My Li village school, yet they are described at different times and with entirely different sentiments, lacking any connection. The passages fail to distinguish between the present and the past, lacking cohesive linking words, resulting in disjointed and difficult-to-understand sentences.

Question 2.

a. Expand on the time aspect for paragraph 2

b. The two passages are tightly interconnected, seamlessly blending together to highlight the differences of the My Li village school playground

Purpose:

Adds meaning to the paragraph, ensuring a tight and cohesive structure in both content and form.

II. METHODS OF CONNECTING PARAGRAPHS IN TEXTS

1. Using words to link paragraphs

- Two stages of the process of understanding and appreciating literary works:

+ Understanding stage

+ Appreciation stage

- Starting, following...are 🡪 connecting words

- Firstly, initially, first, next, then, initially,... 🡪 Connecting devices

- The two paragraphs have a contrasting, opposing relationship

- That time, but this time 🡪 Connecting words

- However, on the contrary, yet, nevertheless, nonetheless, conversely,... 🡪 Connecting devices

- “That” 🡪 indicates the time of the school gathering

- Paragraph 1 presents specific points, paragraph 2 summarizes the issue

- “In conclusion” 🡪 connecting term

- Paragraph 1 elaborates specific points, while paragraph 2 provides a summary of the topic

- In summary, connecting words serve as links.

- In summary, generally speaking, thus, in conclusion, overall, it can be seen that, one can say that, to conclude,... serve as linking devices.

2. Use transition sentences to link paragraphs

Wow, there's even more studying to do! 🡪 This is the transition sentence between two paragraphs.

As such, it concludes the idea from the previous paragraph and introduces the content of paragraph 2.

III. PRACTICE

Question 1.

a. Inference – explanation relationship 🡪 “To put it this way”

b. Contrastive relationship 🡪 “Yet,”

c. Sequential relationship – enumeration 🡪 “Also, however”

Question 2:

Câu	Từ ngữ
a	Từ đó
b	Nói tóm lại
c	Tuy nhiên
d	Thật khó trả lời

Question 3.

The passage where Sister Dau fights back against the bully is the most remarkable and distinctive in the entire excerpt of “The Overflowing Banks”. Discussing this passage, researcher Phan Ngoc made an observation: “The scene where Sister Dau fights the bully is brilliantly crafted.”

Firstly, Ngô Tất Tố’s skillfulness is demonstrated in the selection of vivid details, representative elements contributing to character building. The scene where Sister Dau rushes to fight the bully to resist oppression and exploitation creates a tense, suffocating, and dramatic atmosphere not only for this passage but also for the entire work in general.

Moreover, the author's skillfulness is also manifested through dialogue language that highlights character traits, placing Sister Dau in a position juxtaposed with the bully.

🡺 Linking devices: Firstly, besides that,...

I.The Purpose of Linking Paragraphs in Texts

Question 1 (page 50 of Textbook Vietnamese Literature 8 Volume 1):
Two paragraphs have no connection. Because the content and meaning of the two paragraphs are not linked: The upper paragraph is about the playground in My Ly village, the subsequent paragraph mentions memories of seeing the school when passing through Hoa An village, where the character set traps for birds.

Question 2 (page 50 of Textbook Vietnamese Literature 8 Volume 1):
a. The phrase “a few days ago” adds a time aspect to the second paragraph.
b. With the above phrase, the two paragraphs are logically related in terms of meaning, creating a tight, cohesive connection in terms of content.
c. The purpose of linking paragraphs in texts: Helps paragraphs in texts to connect with each other in terms of meaning to create unity in the theme of the text.

II. Methods of Linking Paragraphs in Texts

a.

- Linking words in the above two paragraphs: “beginning”, “afterwards... is”.

d.

2. Using Transitional Sentences to Link Paragraphs:
The transitional sentence between two paragraphs: “Wow, there's even more studying to do!”. This sentence serves as a transitional sentence, concluding the content of paragraph 1 and starting the content of paragraph 2.

PRACTICE
Question 1: (page 53 of Textbook Vietnamese Literature 8 Volume 1):
Linking words in the paragraph and the meaning relationship they represent:
a. to put it this way: inference-explanation relationship.
b. yet: contrastive relationship.
c. also: sequential relationship, enumeration; however: contrasting opposition relationship.

Question 2: (page 54 of Textbook Vietnamese Literature 8 Volume 1):
Fill in the blanks:
a. Therefore
b. In summary
c. However
d. It’s hard to answer

Question 3: (page 55 of Textbook Vietnamese Literature 8 Volume 1):
The opinion of researcher Vu Ngoc Phan 'The scene where Sister Dau fights the bully is brilliantly crafted' is an affirmation that has asserted the value of the work “Turn Off the Light”. Firstly, the scene where Sister Dau fights the bully, Ngô Tất Tố has created a thrilling, dramatic story, creating surprise, suspense, and finally relief for the reader. In addition, the excerpt has depicted in detail, deeply the character development. We sympathize and admire a Sister Dau: gentle, loving husband and children, patient, enduring but still has hidden strength, resilience. Conversely, we resent a bully: cruel, arrogant, aggressive. That fight scene is even more distinctive, attractive because of the humorous, satirical, mocking tone towards the hired thugs. In summary, Sister Dau's fight scene has successfully depicted the image of Vietnamese women: gentle but also strong, courageous enough to resist the brutal feudal henchmen, inhumane.
- Linking devices in the above paragraph: Linking words with linking effect
+ “Firstly”: Enumeration
+ “In addition”: Transitional word
+ “Conversely”: Indicates opposition
+ “In summary”: Summarizes the content
