Answer 1

An argumentative essay would typically be on an issue in which there will be opinions on both sides, and would have support as well as rebuttals against any counter-arguments. For example:

Throughout history, humanity has strived to create weapons which allowed for one to be able to murder their enemies not only quickly, but also efficiently. In the history of the United States, the gun culture that has been apart of this nation has no exception. In 1791, the Constitution of the United States was passed, which included, within our natural rights that, quote: "[a] well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." [emphasis added].  However, the US has, as any country, has proponents who believe that the old should be replaced by the new, and that the right to bear arms has already lost it's place within today's world, and should be removed. However, I believe that it is not the case, and that the 2nd Amendment still plays an important role even today, and that it should be needed more in today's world than before.

Opponents of the 2nd Amendment must understand that the 2nd Amendment is not simply about whether a person should legally be able to own a firearm or a weapon, but rather that it is more of a security. The Founding Fathers of this country knew that, from their experience, that weapons are needed for one to defend their own values and persons. After all, many of them asked for their fellow colonists to take up arms to fight for their independence from the British government. The usage of firearms throughout the history of the US, not only for the protection of colonists during the Independence War, but also for protection during the Age of the Manifest Destiny, throughout the numerous wars that the US fought, as well as the civil upheavals of the days, show the need for US citizens to own firearms. The arguments that, as the US is a "civilized country", there may not be a need for large quantities of firearms privately owned in the US, but now we need it more than ever. The US constitution sets aside the right for the US population to overthrow their government if it takes away from their natural rights and oppresses them, and the need for weapons and equipment that are on par with the US military is needed to be able to protect their own rights. After all, the 2nd Amendment is the security for all other rights listed for the common person.

Should the US continue to keep the 2nd Amendment? Yes, US citizens should not only strive to protect the 2nd Amendment, but also appreciate the value in which it brings. It is, after all, the security for all their other rights, as well as their security for their freedom as a whole. Without such a right, the US government can slowly but surely take control of US citizens, and impose the rule of the few elites on the many. To be able to defend their natural given rights is expedient for the continuation of the United States of America as how we know of it today.

Answer 2

As online learning becomes more common and more and more resources are converted to digital form, some people have suggested that public libraries should be shut down and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad with an e-reader subscription.


Proponents of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they won’t have to travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are. They could also access more materials because libraries won’t have to buy physical copies of books; they can simply rent out as many digital copies as they need.

However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with tablets. First, digital books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet vs book reading found that people read 20-30% slower on tablets, retain 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they read compared to people who read the same information in print. Additionally, staring too long at a screen has been shown to cause numerous health problems, including blurred vision, dizziness, dry eyes, headaches, and eye strain, at much higher instances than reading print does. People who use tablets and mobile devices excessively also have a higher incidence of more serious health issues such as fibromyalgia, shoulder and back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and muscle strain. I know that whenever I read from my e-reader for too long, my eyes begin to feel tired and my neck hurts. We should not add to these problems by giving people, especially young people, more reasons to look at screens.

Second, it is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have a multitude of benefits, and many are only available if the library has a physical location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to converse with their neighbors, holding classes on a variety of topics, providing jobs, answering patron questions, and keeping the community connected. One neighborhood found that, after a local library instituted community events such as play times for toddlers and parents, job fairs for teenagers, and meeting spaces for senior citizens, over a third of residents reported feeling more connected to their community. Similarly, a Pew survey conducted in 2015 found that nearly two-thirds of American adults feel that closing their local library would have a major impact on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered, benefits tablets can’t offer nearly as well or as easily.

While replacing libraries with tablets may seem like a simple solution, it would encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, despite the myriad issues surrounding them. It would also end access to many of the benefits of libraries that people have come to rely on. In many areas, libraries are such an important part of the community network that they could never be replaced by a simple object.
