Finally, linguistics, whose BRs are thelengthiest in the corpus of analysis, tend to have combinatory and cyclic patterns forintroductions, commonly extending over the following paragraphs.6.2.2.2 Order of presentation of sub-functions in Move 2Variation in the order of sub-functions have also been detected in the middle portionsof BRs where Move 2 is realized. The three disciplines can be roughly divided in twotendencies.On the one hand, chemistry tends to have simpler and more linear developments,with Sub-function 6 in initial position followed by either Sub-functions 7 or 8 or both,usually in that order.On the other hand, economics and linguistics BR development patterns can berepresented as [6-(7+9)-(7+9)-(8+9)], in which reference to parts/lines of argumentationcontained in the book alternate with their respective evaluation again in recurring cycles:[E#8] (Sub-function 6A) ...There are two strands of argument here, historical andtheoretical.
