The essence of this question is: are you going to describe, discuss or express your feelings? There are only five expressive tools for writing articles: narration, lyricism, discussion, explanation and description. Articles mainly composed of different expressions have different genres, that is, we are familiar with arguments, discourses, narratives or essays, novels, plays, poems and so on.

Therefore, when reviewing the questions, we should consider what kind of expression to choose. What are the factors that determine which expression to choose? There are at least four kinds. Namely: the limitation of the topic itself, the limitation of writing direction, the limitation of writing content and the limitation of writing ability.

Second, how to develop the thinking of argumentative writing

Narrative (prose) is lyrical with pictures, so it usually adopts folding fan structure-string several pictures in turn with a clue. Therefore, the basic skill of writing narrative (prose) is the ability to create pictures with words first. It is easier to write scenes, but it may be more difficult to write scenes with many people. The sequence of picture unfolding is nothing more than three: time, space and psychology (stream of consciousness). Or both. In addition, the writing of narrative (prose) needs to create images (images) and strengthen them to deal with the similarities and differences between several pictures, or the similarities and differences between them.

This paper focuses on the development of argumentative thinking. The idea of argumentative writing is simply three phrases: what is it? Why? What do we do? In other words, all argumentative papers can be regarded as three parts: asking questions, analyzing problems and solving problems. First of all, we must determine what the argument is, and then answer why or how to do it. There are two kinds of arguments, one is to tell the truth, and the other is to guide practice. The former needs to explain clearly "why", while the latter needs to explain clearly "why" and "how to do it". When writing, you need either both or only one of them, which is related to the writing situation and the needs of potential readers. But in any case, after giving your opinion, you must be able to face others' doubts directly, demonstrate the legitimacy and rationality of your own reasons, and solve a "why" problem. So, the first question to think about is: What is my reason?

Generally speaking, the development framework of argumentative writing is as follows-

Demonstration (what), reasoning (why) and practice (how to do it)

Someone summed up the idea of argumentative writing into 48 words, so we might as well learn from it-

Make an argument and discuss: why-how is it possible; Positive talk, negative talk; Reasoning, quoting speech; Examples, typical, new; Practical and accurate; Hair growth refutes different theories; Finally, respond.
