A paragraph has coherence when its ideas are
arranged in a clear order and each sentence flows
smoothly to the next.

Writers use transitional words and


expressions or cohesive devices as one
way to achieve coherence.
Arrange the sentences by numbering
them 1-8 to show logical order to
support the sentence. Then combine
them to make a paragraph.

Japan is an interesting country to visit. For


example, there are many temples in Kyoto and Nara
where you can enjoy terrific views. Karakuen Park in
Okayama is famous for its beautiful Japanese garden.
However, Japan has another aspect. Traffic jams are
terrible in Tokyo and it takes more than an hour for
many workers to get to their office. The price of food is
incredibly high. For this reason, maybe Japan is not a
good place to live.
