In Part I, all the cells of the first useful pattern are shaded. Work through the opening singles, add your candidate notes, and see what connects the shaded cells.

The first puzzle introduces an X-Wing; the second introduces a Naked Triple. Use the pattern, keep solving, and look for another chance to use the same technique without the visual hint.
