According to Hacker and Sommers’ in “Constructing Reasonable Arguments”, taking a stand on a controversial topic, swaying the reader with evidence and analysis, and citing all sources used within an essay are the stepping-stones to produce a well manufactured argumentative essay. The main goal is to persuade the reader to choose the writer's side of the argument over the opposing side in an informative way. Arguments happen everywhere all the time, which means there is more than one way to look at an issue. It's recommended to research the debatable topic and look at it from multiple angles. An efficient way to present a position is to treat is like a court case and provide the reader with as much evidence to sway them while addressing any…
Intro: Life repeatedly forces us to make a choice at difficult moments When at crossroads, it makes us take a leap of faith and choose a path to take The point of this paper is to connect Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck, to the poem “The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost. The two pieces of literature are related to each other, for they both discuss the means of choosing the right path to take when at crossroads.…
The sound of gunfire woke Patrick from his dreamless sleep. He quickly jumped out of bed and put on his jacket. As he ran outside with his pistol ready he saw them. The Germans had advanced in the middle of the night, and were charging at his encampment. They had gotten too close.…
For my category four, I created a argumentative essay on the misuse of prescription drugs. I give examples in each paragraph and summed everything up. At first I wanted to have an essay talk about three bad effects of prescription drugs. Then I would break each paragraph down and make a category about each of the individual projects. Yet, I did have that goal in the end, but changed it a little bit.…
I wrote one “source-based argumentative essay” in high school: my final essay from sophomore English. The guidelines were to write a four to eight page paper on any topic of your choice, but the thesis of the paper had to come across clearly. At the time, my personal goals were to write about something no one else would, as well as get an A in the class. As a future collegiate writer, I feel as though I have the habits and potential strengths to be successful, but my biggest weakness is that I do not know how to write a professional essay and I am a reluctant editor.…
This past month, Rick Scott signed into law two new bills regarding elementary through high school, and higher education reform. These were HB 7055 and SB 4. The latter of which has been the topic of discussion for many college students are across the Sunshine State. This bill, also referred to as the Excellence in Higher Education Act (EHEA), mainly focuses on 2 specific issues. Firstly, it confirms the year-long anticipated announcement that the top 2 Bright Futures scholarships will be expanded to pay up to 100% of a student’s tuition is any Florida college; and additionally, it creates the Campus Free Expression Act (CFEA), which eliminates “free speech zones” in Florida college campuses.…
Since starting this class I have noticed how much I write. I journal at least once a week, I’ve had assignments of all kinds that I’ve had papers for, and I spend a great deal of my time on my phone answering messages. I tried my best to get an A in this class, even though I got sick often, and my attendance was poor on the worst days. I tried to participate even when I wasn’t there; for example, I was messaging Garrett argument ideas through Facebook while I as in bed sick. This was one of my favorite classes this semester.…
In the articles “Three Cheers for the Nanny State,” “Ban the Ban!,” and “Soda’s a Problem but…”, all three authors present their arguments with facts, opinions, and counterclaims. However, one article presents itself better than the rest. I believe that the article “Soda’s a Problem, but...” was the most convincing article. Sarah Conly- the author who wrote “Three Cheers for the Nanny State”- argues that the soda restriction is a good idea because people would be stopped from making foolish decisions that they’ll pretty definitely regret.…
If a mad scientist were to transplant half of my brain into someone else’s brainless body, and the other half of my brain into a second’s person’s brainless body, which person would I be? Would I be neither of them or would I be just one of them? Assuming that my personal “fission” could support all of my mental life, According to Parfit’s article Personal Identity, personal identity does not matter and that I would be the same person at first but afterwards both people will become different people. Parfit sketches a theme called, “reductionist” thesis that personal identity through time is constituted by relations between mental and physical events in the absence of anything like a necessarily determinate, indivisible soul. The second theme is given reductionism; some of our commonsensical beliefs about rationality and morality need to be revised.…
The term “Tokenism” is maybe something the average person has never heard of. Tokenism is defined as “ the policy and practice of making a perfunctory gesture towards the inclusion of members of minority groups” If you look at any television show you watch or even movie for the most part you will always find at least one use of tokenism. There 's a token black guy who either acts like he is from what people have deemed the ghetto or he is soulful and acts like he’s from the south. There 's sometimes a token gay character that is always portrayed as a flamboyant white male with a high pitched voice and a love for fashion. The less common token is the love interest token which is the girl that the awkward main character has loved since forever but she has herself wrapped around some other guys finger.…
I’ve chosen to focus on “Exploration and Argumentation” as the subject of this reflective introduction, specifically looking at my argument paper, “Abortion: Right or Wrong?” as a reference to the importance of this learning outcome. I chose to focus on this particular learning outcome because it was the most difficult essay for me to create. While writing this essay it was difficult for me to understand and reciprocate the opposing viewpoint. Understanding an unfamiliar idea and giving ideas for or against a topic is key to creating a fluent argumentative essay.…
The Final Chapter In order to make a well written and interesting paper, you must first look at and take in all the aspects of good writing and apply them. For starters, the author must be well versed in all his vocabulary, his point well stated, and his paper flowing and impactful. One must know their audience and entertain them whilst also having a well thought out argument that can be ridiculed and still stand on its own. Written pieces must hold a few quintessential values as well, such as; good writing form, well written and clear cut arguments, a flow of words through the paper, and a small amount of catering to their general audience.…
Moving Towards Body Positivity Growing up in the early 2000s, the pressure for females to be skinny was intense. Models, actresses, singers, socialites, and most of the women seen in the media were super skinny and very tall. Looking back on my childhood, I recall Paris Hilton being the prime example of a women that exhibited the “ideal” body type. Hilton’s protruding hip bones, scrawny arms, thin legs, and thigh gap, paint the picture of what women, and men alike, found to be the most appealing. However, not everyone is a size 00 like Hilton; in fact, most of us are not.…
The thesis statement is a very, very important part of the essay. In their book entitled, Writing: A College Handbook" James Heffernan, John Lincoln, and Janet Atwill clearly explains the following: "A statement of thesis answers your exploratory question and expresses the main point of your essay my making a precise, specific assertion about the topic. A thesis statement expresses your unique insight or way of explaining a subject and often forecasts how you will develop and organize your text." A good thesis statement will lead right into the introduction. "The introduction comes first for the reader, but not necessarily first for the writer.…
