Topic and Question

Space Travel: Should our society spend taxpayer money to colonize the moon?

Ineffective Argument

I love space. It rocks.

It is super important to colonize the moon because we will run out of room on earth. My neighbor who grows organic vegetables says that we are ruining the earth’s environment and we will need a new place to live. I totally agree.

I think that another reason we should colonize the moon is that it would be cool. Can you imagine living up there and being able to see the earth? Wow. My best friend says that living on the moon would be an awesome experience for anyone.

The moon is great!

Why is the argument ineffective? In a paragraph of 7–10 complete sentences, explain why the following parts of the argument are ineffective, and how they can be improved:

Claim
Support
Conclusion Clincher
Point of View
Transitions
Submit your review of the argument. Do not write a complete argumentative essay.

Claim- weak and to oppinionated

Support- informal, gramaticly inaccurate, uses words like "cool" and "Totally", uses evidence from an irrelevant source

Conclusion- not really a conclusion. one sentence is not a conclusion and it doesnt sum up the rest of the argument.

pov- is written in first person when it should be written in third person.

Transitions- no transitions

Answer:

The claim for this article is very weak and oppinionated, and when you are writing an article you can not have opinions, but facts.  Some evidence that this is weak is that it is informal and gramatically inaccurate, using words such as "cool", or "totally" rather than using proper grammer and would not need to even include simaller words if he had a proper article with trustable sources.  This also uses information from a irrelevent sources, including his friend and neighbor.  This also includes to transitions whatsover, which are nessacary to thread the article together neatly.  Transitions would have also helped the article stay more relevent, rather than just stating random opinions and statments, as well as not thinking about the format and length of the article.  As for the point of view, it is written from the "author's" perspective, otherwise known as first person view when it should have been written in third person view.  Finally for the conclusion, at first it seems there was nowhere to be found because, there is not.  All it has for a conclusion is one sentence (The moon is great!) that does not even include a small summary of the entire article which is what a proper conclusion is.

please help!! what is the social and historical context of Laughing Boy by Oliver La Farge?

Doctor Pascal
by Emile Zola

In the heat of the glowing July afternoon, the room, with blinds carefully closed, was full of a great calm. From the three windows, through the cracks of the old wooden shutters, came only a few scattered sunbeams which, in the midst of the obscurity, made a soft brightness that bathed surrounding objects in a diffused and tender light. It was cool here in comparison with the overpowering heat that was felt outside, under the fierce rays of the sun that blazed upon the front of the house.

Standing before the press which faced the windows, Dr. Pascal was looking for a paper that he had come in search of. With doors wide open, this immense press of carved oak, adorned with strong and handsome mountings of metal, dating from the last century, displayed within its capacious depths an extraordinary collection of papers and manuscripts of all sorts, piled up in confusion and filling every shelf to overflowing. For more than thirty years the doctor had thrown into it every page he wrote, from brief notes to the complete texts of his great works on heredity. Thus it was that his searches here were not always easy. He rummaged patiently among the papers, and when he at last found the one he was looking for, he smiled.

For an instant longer he remained near the bookcase, reading the note by a golden sunbeam that came to him from the middle window. He himself, in this dawnlike light, appeared, with his snow-white hair and beard, strong and vigorous; although he was near sixty, his color was so fresh, his features were so finely cut, his eyes were still so clear, and he had so youthful an air that one might have taken him, in his close-fitting, maroon velvet jacket, for a young man with powdered hair.

Without the information provided by the second paragraph, the reader might draw which of these conclusions about Dr. Pascal? (5 points)


He is lingering over something written by his fianceé.
He is having an unpleasant memory from his childhood.
He is reading a necessary piece of advice from his doctor.
He is putting off going outside to perform an unpleasant task.

Read the Greek myth "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch and answer the question.

[1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity.

[2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice.

[3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold.

[4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day.

"So when the blue smoke of brittle
leaves was in the air and the wind blew
the wet laundry stiff on the line
decided to go home."
"Gatsby was overwhelmingly aware of
the youth and mystery that wealth
imprisons and preserves, of the
freshness of many clothes, and of Daisy,
gleaming like silver, safe and proud
above the hot struggles of the poor."
"Her voice is full of money."
"They were carless people, Tom and
Daisy-- they smashed up things and
creatures and then retreated back into
their money of their vast carelessness
or whatever it was that kept them
together, and let other people clean up
the mess they made made..."
"Her expression was curiously familiar--
it was an expression I had often seen on
women's faces, but on Myrtle Wilson's
face it seemed purposeless and
inexplicable until I realized that her
eyes, wide with jealous terror, were
fixed not on Tom, but on Jordan Baker,
whom she took to be his wife."
