Ice cream is a delicious, frozen treat that comes in a many different colors and flavors. Two of my favorite flavors are strawberry and chocolate. Though both of these flavors are delicious, strawberry may contain pieces of fruit while chocolate usually will not. Even though more chocolate ice cream is sold across the country annually than strawberry, each flavor tastes great inside of a milk shake. The author structured this paragraph to--

explain the difference between strawberry and chocolate ice cream

show that people are not interested in strawberry

suggest chocolate is superior to strawberry

The ice cream shop around the corner from my house has the best ice-cream in the city. When you first walk inside, there is a long chrome counter with matching stools extending to alongside the far wall. Right where the counter stops, the booth seating begins. There are lots of old-fashioned knickknacks on the walls and chrome napkin holders on all the tables. My favorite part of the shop is behind the counter glass, where they keep all of the ice-cream flavors. A rainbow of delicious sugary flavors is kept cool and delicious behind the counter glass. The author organizes this paragraph for the purpose of describing

the ice cream shop near his home

Freezer burn may have wasted more ice cream than sidewalks. If you don’t know, freezer burn is when ice crystals form on the surface of ice cream. These ice crystals can ruin the texture and flavor of the ice cream. But you can prevent freezer burn. Since freezer burn is caused when melted ice cream is refrozen, rather than eating your ice cream from the container as it melts, scoop your ice-cream into a bowl and put the container back in the fridge immediately. Doing this ought to help you solve your issues with freezer burn. This author structures this paragraph to explain --

a solution to the freezer burn problem

the similarities and differences of freezer burnt ice cream

No one knows the true origin of ice cream, but the first published ice cream recipe appears in “Mrs. Mary Eales's Receipts,” a cookbook that was printed in London in 1718. Sometime around 1832, an African-American confectioner named Augustus Jackson created multiple ice cream recipes and invented a superior technique to manufacture ice cream. Ice cream soda was invented around 1874, but the real breakthrough may have been at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis, Missouri when the American ice-cream cone was unveiled! This author organizes this paragraph by--

presenting events that lead to the origin of the ice cream cone

providing information about ice cream

Making ice cream is not easy. Cream and sugar have to first be mixed in a frozen container. Ingredients may be added at this point, if desired. The mixture must be stirred and whipped until the cream and sugar mixture is frozen. Depending on the equipment, this may take as long as an hour. After the ice cream is prepared, it must be kept frozen until it is ready to be enjoyed. Making ice cream is difficult, but most people would agree that it is worth the trouble. The author structures this paragraph to --

describe the steps in making ice cream

providing a solution to the ice cream problem

showing the differences in ice cream flavors

present the facts about ice cream

Have you ever had an ice cream headache? That’s when a painful sensation resonates in your head after eating something cold (usually ice cream) on a hot day. This pain is produced by the dilation of a nerve center in the roof of your mouth. The nerve center is overreacting to the cold by trying to heat your brain. Ice cream headaches have turned many smiles to frowns. The author structures this paragraph to --

explain what the effect of an ice cream headache

provide information about ice cream headaches

give the chronological order of an ice cream headache

show what ice cream can do to a person

It was the most beautiful banana split that I had ever seen. In the middle of the bowl, there were three scoops of ice cream: chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla. On top of the ice cream were a banana and a thick web of chocolate and caramel sauces. A huge puff of whipped cream covered the sauces and a handful of crushed nuts dappled the whipped cream. On top of it all was a cherry, but I’ve never liked the soggy squish of cherries. The author organizes this paragraph to contribute to the main idea that banana splits are delicious by--

describing what a banana split is made of

comparing banana splits to cherries

telling how to eat a banana split
