(ST): Argumentative Writing
muminat

Answer:

In an argumentative essay, this excerpt would most likely belong:

D. in the middle of the essay, because it is a body paragraph.

Explanation:

<u>The very beginning of the excerpt shows that it is explaining and adding to something that was already said earlier: "Even children can be harmed by TV shows and movies . . ." This paragraph certainly follows the claim that TV shows and movies have the power to harm people. It is adding to that claim by offering evidence that those shows and movies may even harm children. Thus, we can see it is a body paragraph, which makes option D the best choice.</u>

A hook, which is an opening statement, would most likely be the very first sentence of the whole text, so we can eliminate option A.

The paragraph is certainly not a conclusion since it is not restating the main idea in fewer words, but is presenting new evidence instead. Letter B is also wrong.

Letter C is incorrect for two reasons: this paragraph is not a claim and, even if it were, claims do not appear at the end of the essay.
