19. Writing cont.
How-to writing often gives instructions that ask people to do multiple (more than one) things. For example, a sentence in a how-to paragraph might say, Raise your hand to make your dog sit, and then give him a treat to reward him. When the person is asked to do 2 related things, cutting the sentence in two helps make the sentence more clear for the reader.
