41-45. Arrange three moves of C.A.R.S of John Swales in the proper sequence.

a. This action refers to making a clear and cogent argument that your particular piece of
research is important and possesses value. This can be done by indicating a specific
gap in previous research, by challenging a broadly accepted assumption, by raising a
question, a hypothesis, or need, or by extending previous knowledge in some way.

b. The final "move" is to announce the means by which your study will contribute new
knowledge or new understanding in contrast to prior research on the topic. This is also
where you describe the remaining organizational structure of the paper.

c. This is generally accomplished in two ways: by demonstrating that a general area of

research is important, critical, interesting, problematic, relevant, or otherwise worthy of
investigation and by introducing and reviewing key sources of prior research in that area
to show where gaps exist or where prior research has been inadequate in addressing
the research problem.
