Why should drinking and driving be banned persuasive essay

English

Explanation:

For persuasive essays, you must use both reasons and evidence to make your claim and rebut the counterclaim.

Reasons are basically this: because of this, that is true. Reasons are evidence without evidence. For example: "You should wear masks because they keep other people safe from the Corona virus.

Evidence requires research. You can look up "drinking and driving" and go to a trustworthy website.  For example: "According to the University of Maryland Medical System (<u>source)</u>, you should "cover both your nose and mouth." <u>(quote)</u>

Claims, counterclaims, and rebuttals

When you search for evidence, you usually look for facts and quotes that work well for your claim, the thing you're trying to prove. But, you should also search for things that don't go well with your claim, which is the counterclaim. Then, you think of a rebuttal. A rebuttal is a counterclaim to the counterclaim. It shows that you understand both sides of the argument.

Website trustworthiness test

To see if a website is trustworthy, go to it. In the top left corner on google, there is a button. If you press it and it says "connection secure" in green font, then it is secure. But, it could be "connection insecure" in red font or something like that and you probably wouldn't trust that. If the website has .gov at the end of the url, it is a website by the government. You can probably trust that. Finally, if the website has the author's name and contact information and doesn't look sketchy, you can trust that too.

Paragraphs

You then divide your reasons and facts into the average of 5 paragraphs, writing 1 at a time. Introduction, which is the intro to the topic and people's opinions on it, then 3 body paragraphs, where you put your reasons and evidence in each paragraph with increasing importance in each one(best evidence and reasons go in the 3rd body paragraph), and finally the conclusion, where you summarize the reasons and evidence and you say what you want people to know or do.
