What I Think Is The Most Important Part Of An Essay

I think the most important part of an essay is the introduction paragraph. The introduction paragraph outlines the entire essay and states the argument of the writer. Without the introduction paragraph, an essay would be completely uncoordinated and messy. I feel that the best introduction paragraph I read was written by E for Eunice. E for Eunice's introduction was so different than any I had ever read before. Starting with a catching metaphor, E for Eunice caught my attention from the first sentence. The best feature that an introduction paragraph can obtain is the "addicting" aspect. If the reader gets drawn into the essay through the introduction paragraph then the writer has done a brilliant job. Once the reader is "addicted", he or she wants to continue reading and thus is enthused by the writers points and thoughts. I feel that the introduction paragraph is the most important part of an essay because it attracts the reader or fully turns off the reader if the paragraph is not written well. Moreover, it is a make it or break it and the writer only gets one chance.
