Persuasive Essay Part 2

Writing a Persuasive Essay - Part 2 [Step 2 - Draft]
 
Assignment:
Write a draft of your Persuasive Essay.
 
     * Introduction - First, hook your reader with an interesting opener. Then give some background on your topic. Next, write a thesis sentence that includes your stance, a course of thinking or action your readers should take, and a brief summary of the reasons this course is necessary.
     * Supporting paragraphs - Each supporting paragraph should refer back to the thesis. NOTE: The supporting paragraphs will be more powerful if you present the opposing counterargument first, counter it with your own argument, and then provide your supporting evidence. (Using this order is kind of like having the last word!)
     * Conclusion - Your conclusion should relate to your thesis and tie your supporting points together.
 
SAMPLE DRAFT 
     * Thesis Paragraph - In the old children's tale, Chicken Little thought the sky was falling. Is that tale coming true? Every day thousands of objects from space enter the earth's atmosphere objects put there by man himself that are now raining back down on him. Though there haven't been any huge catastrophes so far, the problem is getting worse each year, and it is only a matter of time. 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 more in the future.
     * Supporting paragraph #1 - Putting in place a global plan to control space debris may seem unnecessary to some since the chance of impact is very small, according to the Johnson Space Center, which gave an only 1 in 10,000 risk to humans. [Reference] However, these statistics don't reflect the increase in space debris each year nor the increasing number of maneuvers necessary to protect manned spacecraft like the International Space Station from debilitating and, thereby, possibly life-threatening collisions with space junk. This is borne out by NASA scientist Nicholas Johnson, who confirmed that ... [Give details and references.]
     * Conclusion - Although the chance of humans being hit or satellites being damaged by space debris is small at this time and the cost of eliminating and 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.
 
Instructions: Identify a section of the myth, "The Legend of Oedipus," (make sure to have a proper citation!) that represents the idea of a tragic hero then answer the following question in 1 paragraph (5 sentence minimum): Explain how the identified piece of textual evidence represents the idea of a tragic hero as covered in the M3L3 CourseArc (completed in class, 103).

Shonda stands at the free-throw line. Time stretches out before her. Silence. Breath in, out, in, out. Calm. If she hits it: overtime. Misses: no state championship. Crushed. She's never felt space and silence like this. Never before. Such calm. Like she's on a lake. Floating - a canoe maybe - gently. Her mind is empty. She and the rim. Breath in, out, in. Taking in the moment - she wants to enjoy the peace, the silence - before the final buzzer. The buzzer that will break the peace, the silence. This perfect endless moment. She shoots. Swish.

Which statement best evaluates the author's use of pacing in the passage?

⭕ A. The author's use of pacing is not effective, because Shonda's appearance is not described in detail.

⭕ B. The author's use of pacing is effective, because the short sentences help convey the fast action of the scene.
