Opinion words (I believe, In my opinion, I think...) are used in the closing paragraph to give your opinion on the topic.

Connectors ADDITION: and, in addition, furthermore, moreover, what's more, also, too, as well as CONTRAST: but, however, nevertheless, yet, still, although, in spite, despite, even if (incluso si), even though (a pesar de que, aunque) EXAMPLE: for example, for instance, such as, like, particularly, especially, (more) specifically
