It is the material to support the argument and the reason and basis used by the author to prove the argument, which can be divided into factual arguments and theoretical arguments.

1. factual argument: the role of facts in argumentative writing is very obvious. Analyze the facts, see the truth clearly, and check whether it is consistent with the logic of the article. Representative examples, conclusive data, reliable historical facts, etc. Factual arguments include examples and data.

2. Theoretical argument: The theory as an argument is always familiar to readers or generally recognized by the society, and it is the result of abstracting and summarizing a large number of facts. Theoretical arguments include famous aphorisms, proverbs and aphorisms, and the author's reasoning analysis.

Requirements for using arguments: ① certainty. We must choose those hard and typical facts. When citing theoretical materials that have been tested by practice as arguments, we must pay attention to the exact meaning of the cited theory itself. ② Typical. The cited examples should be widely representative, representing the general characteristics and properties of such things. (3) the unity of arguments and arguments. The argument is to prove the argument, so the connection between the two should be closely consistent.

set an example

Argumentation is the process of proving an argument with arguments. The purpose of argument is to reveal the internal logical relationship between arguments.

(1) Argumentative essays are generally divided into argumentation and refutation.

(1) Argumentative writing is an argument method to explain the author's views and opinions from the front in view of an event or problem.

When expressing attitude, we should pay attention to the following three points:

1) These views and opinions must have been carefully considered or practiced, and they are truly unique and correct, or ideas that can effectively solve practical problems. Let readers feel innovative, increase their knowledge and improve their understanding of things.

2) It must be demonstrated around the issues discussed and the central argument. What kind of question is raised at the beginning, and the conclusion comes down to this question. In the process of argumentation, we should not deviate from Wan Li, give full play to it at will, or change the topic at will. If there are several sub-arguments, each sub-argument should be related to and subordinate to the central argument. All arguments should revolve around the central argument. Only in this way can readers clearly understand the sub-argument and the central argument. Argumentative writing is very logical, and the argument must be close to the center and consistent from beginning to end.

3) "standing" is often based on "breaking". In the process of argumentation, we should mention some wrong views and propositions, deny and refute them, so as to enhance persuasiveness and prevent readers from misunderstanding their own views.
