Title: Argumentation 3:


1
Argumentation (3)
  • Things to Do and to Avoid

2
Outline
  • Do1. Clear practical thesis statement 2.
    Clear development of support (including refuting
    counter-arguments)
  • Avoid Faulty logic or inappropriate reasons
  • Introduction
  • Do Impressive which also introduces your thesis
  • Avoid Simplification of reasons
  • Conclusion
  • Do Wrap up all of your points make an emotional
    appeal
  • Avoid introduce a new topic.

3
Clear Practical Thesis statement
  • Therefore, strict laws regulating the campaign
    methods should be set up, while alternatives,
    such as televised debate provided by the
    government, TV commercials, newspaper ads, and
    other types of noiseless but creative promotional
    methods should be extensively promoted.

4
Clear Thesis statement rev.
  • Therefore, stricter laws should be set in
    regulating the campaign methods such as flags,
    rally and motorcade, while the candidates should
    also resort to alternatives campaign methods,
    such as televised debate provided by the
    government, TV commercials, newspaper ads, and
    other types of noiseless but creative promotional
    methods.

Development (1) Reasons in support of
Homosexuals adoption
  • Main Argument Adoption not only saves an orphan
    from the substandard foster home but also offers
    family happiness to the homosexual pairs.
  • 1. Refuting Counter-arguments Good parenting is
    not influenced by sexual orientation. Rather,
    what it requires are unconditional love and
    adequate finance, which both heterosexual and
    homosexual parents could provide.

6
Development(1) Reasons in support of
Homosexuals adoption (2)
  • 2. Refuting Counter-arguments If a homosexual
    household creates gender confusion owning to only
    fatherhood or motherhood to the adopted children,
    then the same problem should happen on
    single-parent families as well.
  • 3. Refuting Counter-arguments There is no clear
    evidence showing that children raised in a
    homosexual household are much more likely to
    become homosexuals in the future.

7
Development(1) Reasons in support of
Homosexuals adoption (3)
  • 4. Homosexual adoption also solves the problem of
    shortage of adoptive and foster parents.

8
Development (2) Reasons in support of
cohabitation
  • First, cohabitants would have a better mutual
    understanding through the process of
    cohabitation.
  • If a couple is in love with each other, they want
    to be with each other all the time.
  • college couples find themselves more independent
    from the families. It is a symbol of showing
    maturity.
  • The fear towards marriage also leads them to
    choose only to cohabit, but not to get married.

9
Development (3) Reasons against All-English
kindergarten -suggestions
  • Parents attitude is the most important
  • Should be learned in a natural environment
  • Overemphasis of English can be harmful to
    childrens acquisition of their mother tongue
  • It is not necessary for children in Taiwan to
    learn English in All-English kindergarten, which
    makes English superior to native language and
    English teachers, to Taiwanese.

10
Development (3) Reasons against All-English
kindergarten
  • It is not necessary for children in Taiwan to
    learn English in All-English kindergarten.
  • Examples of over-emphasis of English
  • hierarchy at school
  • lack of Chinese abilities
  • Example of natural bi-lingualism.
  • How to practice bi-lingualism in a kindergarten
    and at home.

11
Development transition
  • If girls really decide to cohabit with their
    boyfriends, they really need to carefully
    consider it. One day, if they break up, the
    record of cohabitation cant be retrieved. In the
    next relationship or the marriage, the record
    will be with girls. Most men cant accept that
    their girlfriends or wives have cohabited with
    men.
  • Perhaps, those students who decide to cohabit may
    say that they live together for love and deeper
    understanding.

12
  • Girls, especially, should think twice befor they
    decide to cohabit with their boyfriends. They
    should know that once they break up, the record
    of cohabitation cannot be erased. In the next
    relationship or the marriage, the record will be
    with girls. Most men cant accept that their
    girlfriends or wives have cohabited with men.
  • Even if they dont care about other peoples
    views and argue that they cohabit for love and
    deeper understanding, is cohabitation, I want to
    ask, the only way to achieve mutual understanding?

13
Reasoning (1) Advertisements are educational.
  • For instance, the commercial films of milk or
    yogurt claims that to drink milk and yogurt is
    good for health, because calcium is necessary
    for our body and the germs yogurt has is good for
    digestion. Besides, whether we are going to buy
    the certain brand of milk and yogurt or not, we
    get the further knowledge about which nutrition
    and germs are good for us.

14
Reasoning (1) Advertisements are educational.
  • Reasoning not rigorous enough? Providing
    knowledge or constant reminder?
  • For instance, the commercial films of milk or
    yogurt repeatedly claim that drinking milk and
    yogurt is good for health, because calcium is
    necessary for our body and the live and active
    cultures yogurt has is good for digestion.
    Whether we are persuaded into buying a certain
    brand of milk and yogurt or not, we are
    constantly reminded of the importance of calcium
    and lactic acid-producing bacteria.

15
Note
  • CULTURED DAIRY FOODS Cultured dairy foods are
    milk products that result from the fermentation
    of milk or its products by starter cultures
    (i.e., selected specific microorganisms) that
    produce lactic acid under controlled conditions.
    e.g. Sour Cream Yogurt
  • Yogurt. Yogurt is the product resulting from the
    culturing of a mixture of milk and cream products
    with the lactic acid-producing bacteria,
    Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus
    thermophilus.

16
Introduction
  • Nowadays, the social phenomenon has changed.
    Peoples values towards many things are
    different, such as the value of wealth, love,
    sexual intercourse, etc. The rate of divorces is
    getting higher and higher. The latest number of
    the rate of divorce is one out 2.5 couples that
    gets divorced. This phenomenon has also
    influenced on campus. Couples cohabit because
    they are afraid of getting married.

17
Introduction (2)
  • On college campus, many student couples
    cohabit. Some of the couples enjoy doing so while
    some end up breaking up with each other. Some
    would just like to give it a shot. No matter what
    the consequences may be, in my opinion, I find it
    good for college student couple to cohabit.

18
Introduction problems
  • 1. simplification of reasons for cohabitation
  • 2. Thesis statement too short and unclear.
  • 3. Lack of connection between the first and the
    second paragraphs.

19
Introduction suggested solution
  • As our society develops more diverse views
    about love, sexual intercourse and goals of life,
    marriage may not be the only or the best
    destination of love. Instead, cohabitation turns
    out to be a common choice nowadays, while more
    and more married couples end up in divorce. This
    general trend, of course, has its trickle-down
    effects on college, where young couples opt for
    cohabitation for various reasons such as love,
    convenience, mutual understanding and trial
    marriage. Considering the large number of
    unhappy couples and divorced ones, isnt
    cohabitation a better and safer choice for our
    young couples?

Topic sentence conclusion
  • Homosexuals are exactly the same as heterosexuals
    besides(except for) their sexual orientation,
    which is a matter of personal choice and should
    not be discriminated against. Homosexuals and
    their adoptive children may be looked down by
    some people in the society for this reason, it
    is important for homosexual couples to help the
    children face the prejudices and develop a strong
    mind.

21
Topic sentence conclusion (2)
  • Brainwashing the discrimination against
    homosexuals of the public is also inevitable.
    solution through media education. . . They are
    just minority compared with heterosexuals. After
    all, some homosexuals could be better parents
    than those heterosexuals who are addicted to
    alcohol, drugs, and violence.

22
Topic sentence conclusion (suggestion 1)
  • Nobody can deny the humanity of homosexuals, who
    differ from the heterosexuals only in their
    sexual orientation. Nobody can deny their need,
    and thus their human right, to love and be loved,
    and, above all, to have a family with both a
    spouse and children.

23
Topic sentence conclusion (suggestion 2)
  • As normal human beings, homosexuals not only are
    able to provide orphans a good home, they can
    offer them a healthy and loving family
    environment. Moreover, in face of
    discrimination, they teach their children to be
    opener to differences and stronger in fighting
    against prejudices. After all, some homosexuals
    could be better parents than those heterosexuals
    who are addicted to alcohol, drugs, and violence.
