1. Explain what “to give an argument” means in this book.

What to give an arguement means that you should determine what to say aposes to the reading and the authors purpose. You should analyze the reading and determine if you agree or disagree with the implied statement. It also tells how you should argue your purpose in reading the text materials.

2. What are the reasons Weston gives in support of his claim, “arguments are essential”?

How people disagree with staements and agree. How you persuade readers into viewing your opinions. How you scan through the writers essay of arguements and determine the reason behind the article or writing.

3. Explain why many students tend to “write an essay, but not an argument”.

I think that students only focus their attention on what someone else tells them to write. I don't think that arguments are very easy to be presuasive so they will also take the easy way out. I would write on something that I was told or a smilimar topic from what I was given or even on something that I was very familiar with verses and argument because everybody has there on opinion towards thngs and it is very hard to persuade people with an argumentive reasoning in eassy formate. Unless, you are a very good persuader.

4. Construct two short arguments (one "for" and one "against") as modeled in the Week 3 Assignment section in Blackboard. Put each one in "elements form".

(1)Arguable issue:I think that putting a black African American in office made a difference to the nation.

Conclusion:Chance can about and everything that black African Americans fought for now has meaning and purpose.

Premises:In fact you can tell because most people have there negative opinions and someone in highly elevated executive office have bad opinions. Never the less, the president is contently on the news for something weather it is positive or negative.


(2)Arguable issue:I don't think that people value time effectively.

Conclusion:Most organization planned events would flow excellently.

Premises:The inarguration was suppose to start at a certain time and the president was scheduled to have said the oath at 12:00 the time that he was finish with the oath was approximatly 12:01 and that was a minute behind schedule.

5. Review the seven rules in chapter one. Briefly discuss how your argument demonstrates that each rule was applied, in the construction of your arguments above.

The arguments that I have pin pointed are very brief, up-to-date, and very factional.
However, it describe today's matters in society and how someone is sterotyped for there color and creed but not looked over for there ambition and drive towards leaders. Never the less, people think that blacks African Americans can get a head and that creates a negative environment for others prospective.It also describe opinion but opinion is turn in to factional evidence.

6. Review the three rules in the appendix named, “Definitions”. In your own words, discuss how you took these rules into consideration as you constructed your arguments.

My arguements are formated in short argument in terms of argument elements, one after the other and in "equation", in order to analyze whether my reasons "add up" to support my conclusion. also the premises is well defined so that it fit in to both the conclusion and arguement and can be factional with documentation from internet, newspaper, and historical research.
