…others may like it, on the other hand…this morning a question popped into my mind…what are the ways you know for conveying the meaning of “a lot or a little”? look at the following examples:

I but lottery tickets every week and a fat lot of good it does me.

I worked for them for a mingy 200,000 tomans.

Loads of people turned up for the medical council election in Kerman city (taking side here: D)

My sister got no end of energy for studying.

Her uncle left her oodles of money in his will.

(Can you add some to this list? Try to memorize them)

Writing task:

Introduction:

In the introduction to an article you present your topic in general, then narrow the focus on

the topic and make a clear thesis statement.

In papers, the introduction is direct and to the point. It is therefore somewhat shorter than in an article, maybe only one paragraph long.

In some papers, the introduction is actually a named section of the paper. It follows the title, and in this case it is itself entitled 'Introduction'.

 It may have additional paragraphs containing a review of the literature and any pertinent background information. Even though it is a section, you should still be brief.

Although you need to capture the reader's interest as in an article introduction, you should avoid anecdotes and illustrations. You need to

* tell the reader what the paper is about

* say what the paper contains and says

* explain why what it says is important and worth reading
