Argumentative writing is a style that analyzes and comments on a certain issue or thing and shows one's own views, positions, attitudes, opinions and propositions. Argumentative writing has three elements, namely argument, argument and argument. The basic requirements of an argumentative essay are: correct viewpoints, serious generalization, practical significance, and proper comprehensive use of various expressions; The basic requirements of argumentation are: true and reliable, fully typical; The basic requirement of argument is that reasoning must be logical.

The structure of an argumentative essay is usually as follows:

1. Vertical structure mode

According to the introduction (introduction, introduction), this theory (text) and conclusion, the material is organized into three parts, which are called longitudinal structure. Generally, it is arranged in the logical order of asking questions, analyzing problems and solving problems. Also known as "three-stage structure".

2. Parallel structure

Around the central argument, from different angles to demonstrate, forming a number of sub-arguments, a number of sub-arguments constitute a parallel relationship, * * * and the central argument of the argument, which is the parallel structure of argumentative papers.

3. Progressive structure

When expounding the central argument, the relationship between all levels and paragraphs is interlocking and deepening step by step. The former part is the basis of the latter part, and finally draws the conclusion of the article.

4. Contrast structure

This is a structural way that combines positive and negative views, examples and backchat, forming a strong contrast, making two different things clearer in comparison, thus highlighting positive arguments and propositions more effectively.

In argumentative writing, the above structural models are often used alternately, and generally one structural model is the main one, supplemented by other models. In this way, the style of writing can be varied and the articles will not be chaotic.

1. induction

From the typical analysis, that is, the analysis of individual things, find out the similarities and differences of things, and then draw conclusions.

2. Reasoning method

Starting from the general principle, explain and analyze individual things, and then draw a conclusion.

3. Inspection method

Compare all the facts and aspects, then analyze them and draw a conclusion.

4. Refutation method

First list the wrong views, then refute them one by one, and finally clarify your own views.

Examples-give specific examples to prove the argument.

Reasoning method-prove the theory by expounding the truth.

Metaphorical argument-use metaphors of superficial and familiar things to prove the argument.

Comparative argument-comparative analysis of positive and negative situations to prove the argument.
