STEPS
1. Make an outline (あらすじ). Here's a good example:
ToTopic sentence: Vending machines at Shibaura should serve fruit and other healthy snacks.
RcReasons: Fruit and healthy snacks give students and teachers more energy.
RcReasons: They make people feel less tired.
RcReasons: They are often low in fat and calories.
RcReasons: They are often cheaper than chocolate or soda.
2. Develop your reasons by adding more information, with signal words. For example:
To begin with, fruit and healthy snacks give students and teachers more energy because they are made of natural sugars that the body can take in more easily.
In addition, they make people less tired and this helps them to keep going longer through the day.
They are also often low in fat and calories, because doctors often recommend fruit, for example, to people who are trying to lose weight.
Finally, they are often cheaper than chocolate and soda and easier to throw away in the garbage because they are often not in wrappers or containers.
3. Put these reasons with supporting information into paragraph form. For example:
To begin with, fruit and healthy snacks give students and teachers more energy because they are made of natural sugars that the body can take in more easily. In addition, they make people less tired and this helps them to keep going longer through the day. They are also often low in fat and calories, because doctors often recommend fruit, for example, to people who are trying to lose weight. Finally, they are often cheaper than chocolate and soda and easier to throw away in the garbage because they are often not in wrappers or containers.
