The writing is packed with information. Examples or comparisons are carefully chosen. Occasionally there is a vivid image or deft comparison. Organization of material is logical and clearly developed. Transitions are smooth, and the reader does not stumble or hesitate over the sequence of facts and ideas.
Sentences are varied.
Phrasing is often fluent and graceful. Punctuation is appropriate. Examples or illustrations may feel slightly forces or exaggerated. Sentences tend to be of similar structure and are occasionally awkward or wordy. Word choices are workable and clear, though verbs may lack bite or strength.
