Read over something you've written with an eye for the devices you've used to connect the parts. Working either by yourself or with a partner, do the following:

a$.$ Underline all the transitions, pointing terms, key terms, and repetitions.

b$.$ Describe the patterns you see. Do you rely on certain devices more than others?

c$.$ Locate a passage that could use better connections. Revise it using the devices introduced in this chapter. Is it easier to read now?
