Write rhetorically by surrounding one main subject, point or idea with different supporting reasons. Introduce, for example, the main subject, point or idea in your opening sentence. For instance, according to the Tameri Guide for Writers online: "The United States demands a cultural establishment defining a specific age to signify adulthood." Provide two seemingly dissimilar thoughts that support the main idea -- young people driving and adults who vote, for example. Expand the thoughts around the main idea: "One can drive at 16, giving young people the responsibility to handle a motor vehicle; but not to vote or drink alcohol."; followed by "Considering most elections are of local, state or national significance, shouldn’t everyone of voting age be old enough to get drunk?"
Organize your paper into pyramid form. Adjust your writing to a "most to least" format, where the most important points and thoughts are listed first and the least important are the last included bits. Formatting helps you structure seemingly dissimilar information into coherent and effective writing. Journalists often write "most to least," according to the Tameri Guide for Writers, while academic writing tends to follow "least to most" formatting.
Include transitions. Write a standard supporting sentence, for example, and begin the succeeding supporting sentence with a transitional word, such as: Additionally; Furthermore; However; Nevertheless; Nonetheless; or On the contrary. Transitions grant permission for writers to combine different thoughts. Transitions also function as notices to readers that a change in thought is likely.
