In Class: Reading Last Night

The reading last night was a chapter about style in arguments. It started out with sentence structure and argument which talked about how to organize your writing in a way that makes your argument flow. This is important to argument, because if your reader cannot understand your writing, you will not be able to get your argument across to them. It then moved on to punctuation and argument, which talks about how to punctuate the most effectively to make your argument the most effective. Figurative language is also important to argument style. It is important to have good comparasion, because arguments usually involve some sort of comparing to something else.
In applying this to our Unit 3 paper, it will be important to make sure I have all of these things. We will need to have good sentence structure and punctuation to make sure to be able to get our ideas across. And having good figurative language is a necessity in all good writing, because it adds analysis to your claims.
