3. Appreciate and create one’s
own Argumentative essay.
Are you ready
to learn?
What is
that?
Observe the picture
An argumentative essay presents
evidences for a claim in order to let the
reader know why it is more favorable. It
also shows why the other side of an
issue is unfavorable or less favorable. It
also includes, like any other essay, an
introduction and conclusion.
The following are terms related to an
argumentative essay.
Issue – an idea about which the opinions
of people are different.
Claim – a statement by an author about an
issue. A claim has a significant amount of
disagreement about it.
Argument – an idea that supports the
claim. An argument needs supporting
evidences.

Evidence – facts in the real world that


can be used to support an argument.
Counterargument – an idea given by
the opposing side against the claim
given in the argumentative essay.

Rebuttal – the response to the


counterargument
Pro – an argument in favor of a claim
or advantage regarding something

Con - an argument against a claim or


disadvantage regarding something
ISSUE: Should people be encouraged to
travel by bicycle rather than by car?

CLAIM: People should be encouraged to


travel by bicycle rather than by car.
ARGUMENT: Maintaining a bicycle is less
expensive than a car.
EVIDENCE
:
1. The parts of a bicycle are much cheaper
than the parts of a car.
2. Fixing a car may require the services of a
mechanic who would charge an expensive
amount for labor. On the other hand, many
bicycles can be fixed by the owners
themselves.
3. Cars require expensive yearly
registration.

COUNTERARGUMENT: Some say that


riding a bicycle would increase travel
time and decrease productivity.
REBUTTAL: Traveling by bicycle would actually
mean avoiding rush hour traffic jams.

CONCLUSION: So, we encourage people to


travel by bicycle rather than by car to avoid
traffic jams during rush hours to keep and it
does not make people from being late to their
appointments.
