If your area of work was transitions, ask them if they think it flows or if it
If your problem was the balance of (CM) and (CD), ask them if it sounds like there's too much opinion and not enough fact.
If your problem was that your paper didn't relate to the thesis, ask them if it seems like every paragraph proves your thesis.
etc.
