point. Questions are best to be left out of essays because they are very passive and sometimes make holes in your essay. When you confront a question, turn it into a statement: Example:“What do you think that person should do?” Change to: “The person should do the following things to solve his/her problem.” 2. Use of “and so on” amp。 therefore, “I” is not needed. It is not formal language to say I think, plus it is not needed. Examples:“I think t hat cats are better than dogs.” Change to: Cats are better than dogs. Take out all the I thinks, in my opinion, I will show, I will prove and any other personal phrases. Instead, make them into more general statements. 4. Use of “You” “Your” “We” “Us” “Our” Please do not use these words in a formal essay. Not only are they not formal language, but readers may be insulted if the author of the paper insinuates that “You”/“We” do something. It brings too personal of an approach to the writing and can make the reader unfortable. Examples: I think/ In my opinion Change to: more general statements
