brightsky:
I wouldn't say using passive is something taboo. Just apply it in the right context, and don't paint your whole essay with it.

True; there are some instances where passive voice actually works better than active voice.

i thought it was T.E.E.L, why is the L missing in T.E.E? :O
did they change it or something

T.E.E is for within a language analysis body paragraph - technique, evidence, effect. T.E.E.L is for overall structure of an essay. You don't have to stick to these kinds of structures though.

+1 In text responses you may need a 'link' in each paragraph, but you don't need a 'link' in a language analysis, because it is an analysis and not an essay (ie text response). It needs to be more to the point, a 'linking sentence' would be totally out of place and structure. The 'link' in a language analysis is the conclusion.
