Answers

The author focuses on the fact that only one woman participated in a spacewalk, the lack of spacesuits in women's sizes, and how women's achievements are limited to their gender.

What is the purpose of the article?Show how women are occupying predominantly male spaces.Show how women are summarized in these spaces.Show how these environments still boycott female participation.

The article presents two women who were selected to walk in space. This was a very big achievement, since NASA usually forms teams composed only of men and only one woman had this opportunity.

However, the text highlights how NASA did not have adequate spacesuits for women and how this achievement is publicized only around the gender of women and not in their professionalism.

What is the 1 major difference between an argumentative essay and a regular essay ?

Answers

Answer:

Persuasive and argumentative essays take a position on an issue and attempt to convince their readers to accept an argument. In other words, the major difference between expository and argumentative essays is that argumentative essays try to convince, while expository essays attempt to inform and/or explain.

Hii! Here is your answer!

An argumentative essay does not use emotions. When arguing, the author using a matter of fact tone and states to the reader that they are right. Persuasive writing tries to convince the reader that they are right and appeals to the reader personally.
