Giving Reasons

In Helen Keller's “Three Days to See,” she told readers what she wanted to see if she had eyesight. Now imagine that you are blind and you will have eyesight for three days. Write a paragraph about what you would most like to see. Your topic sentence may point out the exact person or thing that you wish to see.

Then, give reasons to support your topic sentence. The reasons should be arranged in order of importance. Here are some useful transitional expressions:

Transitional Words or Phrases for Connecting Reasons enumeratingfirst, second, third, last, finally, the first..., the second..., the third..., the last..., the final..., one, another... adding information besides, moreover, in addition, furthermore...

indicating the order of importance more importantly, most importantly, what is more important, last but not least...

Sentence 3 (topic sentence) Three Days to See I was very moved by Helen Keller ’ s essay, “Three Days to See.” I tried to imagine what I would want to see if I were blind but given the chance to see for three days. If such a miracle could come true, I would want to see my family, my home, and my friends. Example:

Sentences 4-15 (reasons, arranged in order of importance) The people closest to us in this world are our family members. On the first day, I would want to see the love on my mother's face and the sincerity on my father's. I would also like to see my little brother's cute face, the one which delights my parents so.

I love my family so much that just one day with sight would satisfy me. A second day with sight would allow me to see the world of my home. I would like to see the colors of my room. How clean the kitchen must look because Mom is always taking care of it! Is a TV really all that interesting?

I would find out all of these on the second day. On the final day, I would want to see my friends. I have chosen them for their sincerity and honesty, but I would be curious about their looks. Most of all, I would like to see them smile because they have made me smile so many times.

Sentence (conclusion) The experience of sight is one thing that we take for granted. Ironically, it is through a blind woman's eyes that I learned how precious it is to see.
