Assignment:

Complete step 1 in writing a Persuasive Essay (see samples below):

Step 1) Prewrite.

* Choose a topic. (Your topic should be one you feel strongly about, that has more than one

side, and that you can find evidence to support.)

* Take a position. (Begin by taking a position, but know you can change it if your evidence

changes your thinking.)

* Write a simple thesis statement. (This should include your topic, your stance, and a list of

possible supporting points.)

* Research the topic if necessary. (Take careful notes, gather quotes and details in support of

your stance, and accurately record your sources.)

* Make an Outline using the 1-2-3 Structure above (Sample on Page 3)

Introduction - Include a thesis statement - (your topic, your stance, and a brief summary of

your supporting points).

- Supporting points - List main points for supporting paragraphs (Include

corresponding arguments and counterarguments. NOTE: Present counter arguments first for a

stronger essay).

- Conclusion - Relate your conclusion to your thesis, and use it to tie your supporting points together.

SAMPLE PERSUASIVE ESSAY

SAMPLE: Prewrite

TOPIC: Space debris

POSITION: We need a definitive global policy on cleaning up existing space debris and preventing it in the future.

THESIS STATEMENT: Due to the increasing risk of space debris falling back to earth in inhabited areas or damaging orbiting spacecraft, we, as a global community, need to define and adopt a comprehensive policy that eliminates existing space debris and prevents it in the future.

RESEARCH: NASA and other government sources plus newspaper articles. Checked data and quotes, and noted sources to give proper credit.]

SAMPLE: Outline

THESIS STATEMENT: Due to the increasing risk of space debris falling back to earth in inhabited areas or damaging orbiting spacecraft, we, as a global community, need to define and adopt a comprehensive policy that eliminates existing space debris and prevents it in the future.

LIST OF POINTS, COUNTERARGUMENTS, AND ARGUMENTS - by paragraph

1) POINT: Space debris threatens humans on earth, Space Station

COUNTER: Chance is very small: Very few people have been hit

ARGUMENT: Recent threats to Space Station required intervention

2) POINT: Space debris threatens our communications satellites

COUNTER: There is very little damage percentage-wise; we can fly satellites to avoid debris

ARGUMENT: Problem going to get worse; soon can't avoid collisions

3) POINT: Tracking space debris costs a huge amount of time and money, we need a plan to prevent debris in the first place

COUNTER: Making plan will cost a lot of time and money

ARGUMENT: Plan will cost less than inevitable damage.

CONCLUSION: Although the chance of humans being hit or satellites being damaged by space debris is small at this time, and the cost of preventing debris would be substantial, the space debris problem is only going to grow. Space debris will become a material threat at some point in the not-too-distant future. The best solution is to take it on now with a global plan.

Hello instructor, please you help me fix grammar and sentence in my essay, keep original essay, just fix grammar and sentences that you feel nescessary.

My essay.

In order to achieve the qualities of a successful student, that student must have the qualities

to evaluate in the most general way. Successful students have three main qualities. These

qualities include setting goals, responsibility, and curiosity.

First of all, setting goals is one of the most important tasks for every student. Because when

Students who clearly define their goals will make detailed scientific plans to progress

effectiveness of goals. From there, students will try their best to achieve the goal.

for example, when students study physics, their goal is to get an A, then they will make a review

plan from starting and systematizing knowledge by tree diagrams, through tree diagrams,

students will do a variety of exercises to familiarize students with when entering test time, they

will remember the knowledge, they will do well on the test, and achieve the goal of getting an A.

Therefore, Students want to achieve high results in their studies, they need to have a clear plan

and determine the right goals according to their ability. It is one of the qualities needed to

encourage students to set goals before they want to learn about something and help them

gain knowledge effectively.

Second, responsibility is one of the indispensable qualities in each student when they sit on

school chairs. because when each student understands their responsibilities, they will always

take good care of school equipment, to keep it like new, undamaged. For example, When

students finish a lab class, they need to keep the equipment clean, and thorough washing helps

prevent the device from becoming moldy and leading to damage. In addition, students will help

the school has full teaching equipment without damaging any equipment. With respect to

friends, it is always the responsibility of the student to maintain a good friendship and especially

help each other when talking about learning. For instance, when a student needs help with a

math homework assignment, because the math problem is difficult, and they can't do it, so

another student will be responsible for guiding them to solve the problem, they are only

responsible for providing solutions, to help this student rely on that direction to solve. As for the

family, the student has the responsibility to listen to his parents, because the parents' advice is

very useful to help the student improve himself when student wants to walk on the academic

path. For instance, when this student is about to transfer, it will be time to register to choose a

career and school, then the advice of parents, helps them better define the profession, and

for them. Therefore, students have a responsibility to school, friends, and family to help the

students to better themself.

Last, curiosity is one of the most essential qualities for every student. Because students

want to achieve high results in their studies, they need to first improve their knowledge by

exploring many kinds of interesting exercises and clever solutions learned from books by many

different good teachers in that subject. For example, when a student wants to do well in

physics, first of all, student listens to the lecture while sitting in class, then student will improve

his knowledge by looking at reference books about physics because in this book, there are

many types of exercises and good solutions for this student to master in the most effective way.

Therefore, students should be encouraged to be curious about a lot of useful knowledge from

good people, with high expertise.

In conclusion, setting goals, responsibility, and curiosity are the three qualities of a

successful student. In addition, students who want to develop better, must have these three

standards to help them develop comprehensively from academics to ethics, dealing with friends

and family.
