The argumentative paragraphs are those in which are exposed and explain the arguments that support the main idea of the text. These are the theoretical foundations or logical conclusions that led the author to have a certain idea.
The presence of argumentative paragraphs in a text is essential for the veracity and makes it more convincing, building a complete and coherent text.
Examples of argumentative paragraphs
In a good argumentative paragraph the argument is exposed, its veracity is demonstrated or refuted according to the convenience of the writer, and it is used to justify the point that is dealt with in the text.
Being the basis that gives credibility to the text, they are essential for essays and academic, journalistic or scientific texts in general.
Example 1
Cooking is an art, it's not just following a recipe and crossing your fingers waiting for the result, it's not mixing certain portions in a certain way and that's it. It is about understanding how the flavors and flavors resulting from these mixtures are mixed. How the quantities and cooking times influence. It is an art that must be studied and practiced to achieve a masterpiece. Because otherwise, it would be equivalent to tracing a Renoir painting and affirming that one is an artist.
Example 2
There is an abysmal difference between the conception of Western and Eastern reality. The real cradle of humanity is in the east, the oldest civilizations are housed there. It is a culture by antonomasia much more mystical, as well as practical. We, in the West, are focused on the immediacy of the action, on achieving the short-term objectives. This aspect can be extrapolated to art. Once I read a phrase:"Pixar reaches your heart, but Studio Ghibli touches your soul". I have reflected on this phrase and I have realized that it is a summary of the conception of immediacy that we have in the West .
Example 3
One of the predominant passions in history is fear. All the characters fear something; the abandonment, the violence, the truth. And that fear is what gives them the initial impulse to act. The very atmosphere of the film, with its colors, music and plan values, generates the constant insecurity caused by living with fear. But towards the third act, when the mysteries are unveiled, all the characters change this passion for another; the courage At this point everyone understands that only by facing fear will they achieve their goals, so that fear is superimposed, although it never ceases to exist. Throughout the film there are moments in which other passions take control momentarily, such as despair, anger, revenge and even resignation.
Example 4
Lipovetsky, in appearance, is not really worried about the repercussion that the global screen may have on social constructs. I feel that the almost vertiginous speed in which technology advances will reach us and surpass us. I also feel that the screens could easily replace the human heat. But even in those circumstances there would be willing people, and even with the uncontrollable urge to scream and free themselves. I think that is the way we are aiming, and I feel relieved by the idea that another stage of convulsive art will come, that we reconsider the structures and force us to think of new strategies that keep our human quality intact, that little flame that burns inside and that the screens can not dim.
