How to use the materials in argumentative writing.

—— Read the chapter "Use materials skillfully, write a Chinese chapter with difficulty" in "Writing in the College Entrance Examination"? Feeling

There are problems in writing

When students in Grade One of Senior High School are writing argumentative papers, there is such a problem: the materials used are almost telling a complete story, even the details are written out. The material was not processed effectively, and the material was not analyzed after writing, and the conclusion was drawn directly. This is to write an argumentative essay by writing a narrative!

In an argumentative essay, the material is only the starting point of discussion, the basis of argumentation and the service for the argument. Therefore, in a material, it should be refined in the place that highlights its own center, rather than completely describing the whole material. The basis for material selection is the central argument. Things are the foundation of reason, and reason is the sublimation of things; Choose things according to reason, and distinguish them according to reason.

Mr. Wang Kaidong summed up the article "Skillful Materials, Difficult Hands with Chinese Chapter" in a comprehensive way. Here, I mainly talk about the first two:

How to change this phenomenon?

First, we should process the materials, extract the words that serve our own center, and discuss these words. The rest can be omitted or even omitted.

This solution is explained in detail in the article "Comment on Composition of Monthly Exam II".

Teacher Wang Kaidong said: A standard discussion paragraph should include the following five sentences with different functions: opinion sentence, explanation sentence, material sentence, analysis sentence and conclusion sentence.

for example, knowledge is power.

knowledge is power. In the early 195s, Qian Xuesen broke through many obstacles and finally returned to the embrace of new China. When Kimball, the undersecretary of the US Navy, learned that he was going back to China, he immediately wrote to the US immigration authorities, claiming: "I would rather shoot this guy than let him go back to China. Because he knows too much about things that are vital to us. At any time, he is enough for five modern strengthening mechanics. " It can be seen that knowledge is power. (Concluding sentence)

A specific material can often prove several points; Why do you have to prove this point of view and nothing else? It is not convincing enough without specific explanation and analysis.

For example, if you add the following "analysis sentence" between "material sentence" and "conclusion sentence", it will be clearly visible.

why is Qian Xuesen worth five teachers at any time? Isn't it because he has mastered too many advanced and cutting-edge modern scientific theories and sophisticated modern science and technology in his mind? Isn't it because this "knowledge" about "atomic energy" is enough to enhance the strength of a country and even change the whole world and decide the fate of mankind?

then "Visible ..." is a natural thing.

the reason why an argumentative essay becomes an argumentative essay lies in its explanation and analysis. Without explanation and analysis, the stylistic features of argumentative writing are lost, not to mention its persuasiveness, logic and rigor.

Warm reminder

Generally speaking, theoretical materials need to be supplemented by explanations; Factual materials need to be supplemented by analysis. After putting out the facts, it is even more necessary to tell the truth.

So here's a tip:

This will make reasoning more hierarchical, deeper and more convincing.
