1—financialconsideration②a．reasonabletuition③b．deferredpaymentplan④理由

2—qualityofeducation⑤a．fineteachers③b．practicalexperience⑦在两个主要理由之下，作者用更小的细节支持它们。由此可见，段落的扩展依赖于支持主题句的细节（details）。推展段落的方法很多。通常每个段落以一种方法为“支配方法”（thedominantmethod），必要时，可运用其它一种或数种方法作为“辅助方法”（thesupportingmethod）。上面的示范段落使用因果法（cause-and-effect）作为支配方法，分类法（divisionandclassification）作为辅助方法。作者还运用了“重要性排列顺序”（theorderofimportance）作为安排细节、组织段落的手段。我们将在以下各单元逐个讨论这些方法。示范段落分析由此可见，段落的扩展依赖于支持主题句的细节（details）21III.TheConcludingSentenceItsignalstheendoftheparagraph.Itsummarizesthemainpointsoftheparagraph.3.Itgivesafinalcommentonthetopicandleavesthereaderwiththemostimportantideastothinkabout.
