When introducing a new idea in an essay, what should be done?

  1. Put it in the introduction

  2. Use a transitional phrase

  3. Use a long sentence

  4. Restate the essay topic

The correct answer is: Use a transitional phrase

When introducing a new idea in an essay, it is important to use a transitional phrase to smoothly transition from the previous idea and ease the reader into the new idea. Option A, putting it in the introduction, may be too abrupt and not as smooth of a transition. Option C, using a long sentence, may lead to confusion and lack of clarity. Option D, restating the essay topic, is not necessary and may not effectively introduce the new idea. Therefore, option B is the most effective and appropriate way to introduce a new idea in an essay.
