sattari [20]

Answer:

ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY - DEFINITION

An argumentative essay is an essay that takes a position on a particular issue or topic.

PURPOSE OF AN ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY - DEFINITION

The purpose of an argumentative essay is to convince the reader that your viewpoint is true or correct. This kind of essay is similar to the persuasive essay because both essay present a viewpoint on an issue. However, the persuasive essay can use opinions and appeal to the reader's emotions. While writing an argumentative essay, you have to use only facts and logic. You have to appeal to the mind of the readers and not their emotions. For example, you could write an argumentative essay on why students should be encouraged to participate in more extra-curricular activities.

EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THE CLAIM - DEFINITION

While writing an argumentative essay, it is important to provide facts and statistical evidence to support the claim you make. Without this, the claim will only be an opinion. This will not convince the reader that your viewpoint is correct. You need to research your topic thoroughly and make a note of all the data that can support your argument. While writing the essay, present your argument with all the supporting evidence.

COUNTERCLAIMS - DEFINITION

A counterclaim is a claim that opposes another claim. The purpose of an argumentative essay is to present your viewpoint on a particular issue. However, it is also important to acknowledge viewpoints that may oppose your own. Use a paragraph to outline the possible counterclaims that could be made against your claim.

UNDERMINE THE COUNTERCLAIMS - DEFINITION

Once you have acknowledged the counterclaims, you also need to undermine them i.e. explain why they don't work. Use proper reasons and evidence to do this. By stating and undermining the counterclaims, you can convince the reader that you have thought about the issue from all sides.

COMPOSING AN ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY - DEFINITION

Keep the following points in mind while composing an argumentative essay:

The essay should use logic and reason to present your position on a particular topic or issue

Research the topic thoroughly and identify statistical evidence and facts to support your claim.

Acknowledge the counterclaims i.e. the statements that may oppose the claim you are making.

Use facts and evidence to show why the counterclaims are wrong.

Simora [160]

Answer:

This is really good!!

Explanation:

I really enjoyed your writing and I like how you have set this story up!! The story is extremely intriguing and I almost didn't want to stop reading. I love your descriptive language and it makes the story feel alive. The scenarios feel real and its easy to put yourself in the place of Winter (who is an interesting character) and feel sorry for her and her situation. The one thing I think that could help this even more is maybe some even more descriptive words when describing her running away from Cain (she heard every leaf crunch under her feet and cringed at the thought of him hearing her, she felt the cold breeze and stiff air more than ever alone in that tree and she sat in the short amount of safety that was given to her in that moment, she heard Cains manic laugh echo through the forest, ect.). I feel as though this could make that scene even more better than it already is!! :)

I love this idea and your creativity! Keep writing, this will be amazing!!
