Moreover, this technique opposed massed practice that involves learning or practicing for a long-continued period.

PROJECT PREP Prewriting Claims and Warrants

Based on the discussions you have had with your classmates, sketch out a persuasive

text. On the subject of stereotyping, for example, ask yourself what argument might

you make based on what you know about the stereotyping. Who is your audience,

and what belief or action would you be persuading those readers to embrace?

Organize the plan for your argument into a three-column chart like the one below

in which you make a series of claims about the problem, give examples that Illustrate

each claim, and assert a warrant that explains how the example illustrates the claim.

(See pages 228–230 and 309 for more information on claims, examples, and warrants.)

CHAPTER 8

Persuasive Writing Prewriting

1 Purpose, Subject, and Audience

In a persuasive essay, your purpose is to win your readers over to your point of

view—and sometimes to convince them to take an action that you recommend.

To achieve this purpose, you need to build a convincing, logical argument and

present it in a convincing and powerful way. The strategies that follow will help you

accomplish your purpose effectively.

Thinking your subject through carefully and marshaling the best possible evidence are

the surest ways to develop a good argument. If you take your time during prewriting,

you will be able to anticipate your opponents’ reactions and be ready for them.

chOOsIng a subject

The two most important aspects of a good argumentative subject are (1) that the subject

is genuinely controversial and (2) that you feel strongly about it. Brainstorm a list of

possible subjects about which you can say, “I believe,” while some other people would say,

“I don’t believe.” Use brainstorming, freewriting, clustering, or other strategies to narrow

your list of possible subjects. Then use the following guidelines to choose one.

HOW Questions for Analyzing an Audience

• What does my audience already know about my subject?

• What is my audience’s point of view about my subject?

• Do they already agree or disagree with my position?

• What are the chances of changing the opinions and

behavior of my audience?

• Are there any sensitive issues I should be aware of?

Writing Tip

both audiences, write both.

1. A parent has offered to organize and supervise the club.

2. Small dues would pay for all the expenses of the club.

3. Chess is lots of fun. Speed chess is even thrilling.

Which sentence is punctuated correctly My brother, is a truck driver spends a great deal of time on the road.My brother,is a tru
Snezhnost [94]

I took the liberty to correct your typing. The original question does not have the verb "is" after the word "brother". The way you typed it, none of the options would be correct. The proper question is this one:

<em>Which sentence is punctuated correctly? </em>

<em>A) My brother a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road.  </em>

<em>B) My brother, a truck driver spends a great deal of time on the road.  </em>

<em>C) My brother, a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road.  </em>

<em>D) My brother, a truck, driver spends a great deal of time on the road.</em>

<em />

The sentence that is punctuated correctly is option C) My brother, a truck driver, spends a great deal of time on the road. The structure "a truck driver" is an appositive. That means its function in this sentence is to give further information or an explanation about something that was just mentioned - in this case, the word brother. The speaker is explaining that his/her brother spends a lot of time on the road because he is a truck driver. Appositives should come between commas. That's why option C is the right one.
