Concluding Paragraph for the Feature Article

The concluding paragraph is a modified APE paragraph. This means that you must have a topic sentence and four main points in each paragraph, and each point should be explained in at least another sentence. The final sentence should state that the rewards outweigh the challenges in your occupation, and that you look forward to having that job some day.
