Briefly state how the text defines " claim"
refers to the statement that the maker of the argument is seeking to show to be true or probably
true.
Briefly state how the text defines "reason"
sentences in the argument that are used to show that the conclusion is true or probably true
Construct a definition of the term "argument"
An argument is two or more statements, at least one of which serves as evidence to support the truth
or probable truth of the other. (It is not a quarrel or a disagreement)
What does the test suggest we ask to distinguish conclusion and reasons?
-What is the conclusion that the speaker is trying to establish as true?
-What is the decision that the speaker is trying to explain/justify?
- What considerations does the speaker present to establish the truth of that claim or basis of that
decision?
What are the component premises are there in the following statement?
-If it weren't for how much it cost - premise.
-How big it is - premise.
- I'd buy that TV for our bedroom - conclusion.
Unless the speaker actually indicates a reason, we cannot tell what
they are thinking
This is not necessarily true Looking at the structure of each of the mapping, just by reading carefully I
am able to get a sense of what particular aspect of the topic is going to be developed. Another point is
that if the document has the appropriate coherence and cohesion, this allows me to have a very clear
idea of what the author has expressed, without necessarily having to receive detailed explanations at
all times.
In analyzing and mapping the statements in an argument, context is not important
Context is important because it sets the right tone and shows the idea
that someone is trying to display. Using incorrect context can send the
wrong message and leave room for misconception. Correct context leaves a much more clearer
picture.
