Answer 1

After the exploration of primary resources, I simply try to incorporate words in my introduction which can present a true and elaborated picture of the present scenario. Introduction is tried to be kept in manner which can tell the linking story of past and present.

It should be framed in a manner which can tell the past experiences along with a futuristic view. It should seed an inspiration in reader's mind. It should ignite the enthusiasm for the topic. It should be constructed in such a manner which can ensure that something interested and valuable is going to be explored.

If we are writing introduction of a scientific journal then first of all we should tell that which related researches have already taken place in that particular field. We should tell the shortcomings of already conducted researches and should also discuss that how those shortcomings can be rectified.

After the problems have been identified, a possible solution should also be suggested. A futuristic implication should also be discussed in this chain. In, short an introduction should be designed a manner which can provide whole gist of the paper in few lines.

It should be capable enough to raise the level of interest of reader. It should have a motivating impact on reader's mind. It should be concise, precise, well structured and well elaborated. .
