listing paragraph
Posted on 12, 2009 by mannaf
Let us now carefully see the listing paragraph given below.Last Eid ShoppingI, as usual, enjoyed the last Eid shopping as I visited different markets and bought dresses for
myself and the other members of my family. Firstly, I together with my mother went to New
Market and bought two attractive dresses for my younger sister. Then we went to Gowsia
Market, visited three shops, and bought a very nice dress for my mother. After that, we went to
Elephant Road, visited several shops, and bought two Punjabis — one for me and one for myfather. Besides, we bought a fine dress for our maid servant. Finally, we went to Eastern Plaza,
and purchased some cosmetics for my mother, sister and the maid servant. The last Eid shopping
was really a happy experience to me.
5. Classification: To develop a paragraph by the technique of classification, we put a host of ideas or items into a limited number of homogeneous classes. In such a paragraph, the topic
sentence clearly and precisely breaks the subject or topic up into more than one part.
Consisting of the same or similar ideas or items. Then the developers describe or explain each of
the parts separately and elaborately, and show how the parts relate to the subject and how they
relate to each other.
This type of paragraph is developed on such topics as ‘Transports in Bangladesh’, ‘Literary
Works’, ‘Films’, and the like. This strategy of developing paragraphs helps us discuss thingsclasswise in detail in a systematic way. Now let us study this classification paragraph:

paragraph developed by comparison.
Now let us examine the following paragraph developed by comparison.
A Baby and an Old Person
Though a baby and an old person are very different in point of age and experience, they are
much similar in respect of physical ability, mental strength and economic condition. A baby isphysically immature and depends on the adults around him/her for physical movement.
Similarly, an old person may be very weak and depend on others for his/her movement. Again, a
baby possesses a little mental strength and can hardly exercise it. Likewise, an old person lacks
mental strength and can hardly cope with mental pressure. Finally, a baby has to depend onhis/her parents for all financial support. An old person, too, often depends, on. his/her sons and
daughters for economic assistance. Thus, a baby and an old person have much in common,
though the former has just come to this world and the latter is about to pass away.
3. Contrast: To develop a paragraph by contrast we have to show how two subjects differ from
each other. That is, a contrast paragraph’ compares the dissimilar features or qualities that twosubjects have. And the topic sentence in such a paragraph indicates how we are comparing the
contrasting aspects of two subjects.
This type of paragraph permits two different procedures to be developed:
(a) In a procedure, the dissimilar respects of two subject are compared point by point, that is, one
of one subject and one of the other, again one of one subject and one of the other, and so on.
(b) In the second procedure, the comparison of the dissimilar aspects is made subject wise. Thatis, the aspects related to the first subject are dealt with first, and then the aspects of the second
subject.
