-Secondly, an example is to aid in your point of view. It is supposed to be augmenting what ever you have tried to prove or stated. First try to state what you want to say. After that give examples. Else what you could do is give examples and then elaborate on your point. But in both the cases they should support some form of argument that was presented on your part.
