Explanatory method refers to the method of demonstrating opinions with conclusive and typical facts to enhance persuasiveness, which is generally used in argumentative writing. Examples are the most widely used in argumentative writing. It is also an effective reasoning method. Because no point of view can exist in isolation, facts speak louder than words, and proving the point of view with conclusive and typical facts will enhance the persuasiveness of the article, so the general argument adopts the method of examples.

Illustrative argument refers to the method of proving the argument with typical examples. By enumerating typical examples, the central argument is proved concretely and forcefully, and the persuasiveness is enhanced. Illustration is an argument method from material to viewpoint, from individual to general, and it is a form of reasoning that draws the same conclusion from the analysis and research of many individual things.

Illustrative argument refers to the method of proving the argument with typical examples. Enumerating conclusive, sufficient and representative facts can enhance the power and persuasiveness of discussion.

The role of examples: the specific examples cited can prove the argument. In addition, there are other argumentation methods in argumentative writing, such as reasonable argumentation, figurative argumentation, positive and negative contrast argumentation, and citation argumentation.

Precautions:

1, you can't just put examples behind arguments without revealing the internal relations between them. Without sufficient analysis and reasoning, it is impossible to explain your own views clearly, and the article will become simplified and lack internal logical power. After stating the facts, you need to be reasonable.

2. The cases selected in case law must be true and typical, otherwise it can't explain the problem.

3. This is an argument method from material to viewpoint, from individual to general, and it is a form of reasoning that concludes the same conclusion from the analysis and research of many individual things. Using this method, it is generally divided into two parts, that is, directly putting forward the topic, then demonstrating the argument layer by layer with materials around the topic, and finally summing up the conclusion.

4. When analyzing the example method, the reader must know from which aspect, level and angle the facts cited by the author prove the central argument, and understand its internal relationship with the central argument.
