Solved by verified expert:Find and read a published article that makes a clear argument in a specific topic. You may use an article from our textbook, or one you select from the library. After reading through the article, you will write your own essay, explaining how the argument is constructed, both in terms of organization and content. Does the author start with their thesis clearly in the introduction, or do they wait until the conclusion to make their argument clear? Does the author use a range of ethical, emotional, and logical evidence to support their argument, or do they rely on one type of evidence the most? Does the author arrange their argument from weakest to strongest evidence, and if so why do they do this? You are writing an argument on how and why the article you read is organized and written the way it is, to persuade readers to agree with the author’s point. You will argue how well the author succeeded at convincing you of their goals. Your essay needs to be clear and unified under your thesis. Make sure to include specific evidence from the article you read, to show how and why you analyzed the article the way you did in your essay. Make sure to review the section in your textbook on proper MLA citation for any quotes or paraphrases you use from your outside source. Grading CriteriaSuccessful papers will have: 1.
