Sections 17.4 and 17.10

Section 17.4
This section focuses on piecing the whole paper together with effective titles, introductions, and conclusions. Next, some old bad habits and thoughts are put to rest, such as the conveyor belt of ideas, and a funnel leading to your main point. Good titles are claimed to be important too, used as hooks and quick intros to the paragraphs point. Different strategies and their outcomes are explained such as containing parts of your thesis in your titles, to slowly introduce the thesis without blurting it out. The latter half of the section focuses on the elements of a closed form introduction, which they list as: An opening attention-grabber, Explanation of the question to be investigated, Background information, and lastly A preview of where your paper is heading.
Section 17.10
This section finally ties in open formed writing into our current closed form writing, expressing and explaining how though the two are different, elements from each can be used in the other to create an impact. They introduce how to use elements of an open form in writing a closed form without jeopordizing the closedness of it.
