There are four questions to consider:

2.9.1 Choose a conclusion you would like to argue for (it can be anything) and then present some persuasive reasoning; make it very clear what your reasoning is.

2.9.2 Look at the leading articles in one of today’s ‘quality’ newspapers and decide which are arguing a case and which are doing something else.

2.9.3 If when tackling question 2.9.2 you found an argument, write it out briefl y so that it is very clear what is being argued.

2.9.4 Referring back to question 2.9.1, write out the best argument you can think of against your conclusion. Again, make it crystal clear what your argument is by using the language of reasoning we have discussed above.
