Review writing
- A title is advisable
- Think what you are trying to achieve and, in the introduction, DO give your reader an
indication of the structure of your review. You should also raise a question in your
readers mind.
- Start a new paragraph for every item/aspect you are addressing in your review.
- Try to make it interesting by using a wide range of vocabulary: colorful, lively
language; comparisons to describe something; specialized topic vocabulary.
- DO give your assessment of what you are reviewing and DO NOT forget to cover all
the points mentioned in the task input.
- DO include a final recommendation or evaluation in the final paragraph.
Reports and proposals
Proposal vs report
Both formal, both make recommendations and the reasons behind these. They both have
headings.
Report is written to someone with authority (manager, boss, public, official, etc.) or peer
(colleague, associate, classmate, etc.) A report can make only one recommendation at the
end. Often use of passive language.
A spoken or written description of something containing information that somebody needs to
have. Usually written by people who have examined a particular situation or problem.
A proposal is written to someone who needs to make a decision usually which involves
spending or investing money (a client or customer, a committee, someone responsible for
finances within a company or organization, etc.) A proposal makes a lot of recommendations.
Whose decision will directly benefit the writer in some way. Persuasive language is used.

Passive language
