When writing a paper you should try to avoid passive voice. It is hard not to use passive voice at times. If you can just keep  the usage at a minimum in your papers. Being in college I have not had a problem with English teachers (a really hard teacher my first and third semester) deducting points from my paper when using passive voice. What I do is put my paper through Grammarly just to see what kind of errors I have in my paper and fix them. If you have an account with Grammarly they will show you where you made mistakes but because I don't I had to find where my mistakes were. It is a very helpful website. Hopefully I helped.

How does Snow use different sections such as "Pathology Indicates Manner of Communication" to build his argument?
Elza [17]

In the section "Pathology Indicates Manner of Communication," Snow explains the nature of cholera and argues that the study of the disease will help scientists understand how it spreads and how it can be averted. He combines his knowledge of the characteristics of the disease with his clinical experiences to build his argument.


He continues to build his case through other sections of the essay. For example, in "Cases Proving Person to Person Transmission," he provides evidence from other cases to support his theory that cholera is spread between people. Then, in another section, he maps an outbreak that occurred on Broad Street, connecting the affected individuals to a single water pump. After making these supporting arguments, he arrives at his main argument that cholera spreads through contaminated water.


In sum, Snow discusses a different concept in each section; these sections complement one another to build a complete, effective argument. The section labels help the reader follow Snow's line of thinking by mapping the main points.
