Follow the pattern suggested below to present your written response. This essay should range from 3 &#8211; 4 pages in length, so keep it concise. On the other hand, be sure to offer adequate introduction of the argument, and to develop your analysis thoroughly, quoting from the article in support of your discussion. .<br \/>\nIn order to guide your effort, there is a rubric on the reverse side of this sheet; furthermore, you are asked to divide the essay into two parts:<br \/>\nPart one consists of 2 to 3 paragraphs introducing the work by author and title, as well as noting the rhetorical context of the piece, its intended audience and other orienting information that you infer from clues accompanying the work\u2019s publication. In addition, in part one you should note the author\u2019s claim and your sense of his or her reasons offered in support of that claim; you should furthermore comment on what sort of evidence the author provides in support of those reasons, and you should comment briefly on how the argument is arranged and presented; does the author employ appeals to logic, to emotion, to ethics? Does he or she use humor, satire, or other strategies? Remember that these first paragraphs comprising Part I are largely introductory, and not evaluative yet.<br \/>\nPart two, on the other hand, consists of three to four paragraphs evaluating the argument. Is it effective? How so? Does the author present examples of mature reasoning? Discuss strengths and weaknesses of the argument as it posed in the article; however, do not offer your own counterargument in this evaluation. Support with particulars your judgment of the effectiveness of the argument; quote from the text of the article to particularize your points. You will want to use the first person, and to refer to your experience of reading the piece. You will also want to employ correct MLA style in documenting your response to the article. Finally, use present tense verbs when referring to elements of the argument; for example, rather than saying, \u201cThe author said,\u201d or \u201cShe wrote,\u201d your lead-ins and acknowledgement phrases should state \u201cThe author argues,\u201d \u201cAccording to Cohen,\u201d or \u201cShe claims,\u201d and so on: use specific, present tense verbs.
