1.

The main point and assertions are clear since the statement avoided nonspecific words such as
society and people as a substitute for the subject. Examples and justifications are also present,
making the audience comprehend the article more. 

One of the assertions is - “This is not, and should not be, a debate about religious beliefs, personal
anecdotes, or ideological views.”
The main point - “They (Lawmakers) would simply be ensuring Argentina complies with its international
obligations and that no one is forced to suffer needlessly, especially among Argentina’s most vulnerable.”
2. These sources of evidence are reliable and slightly convincing, but adding more scholarly
journals or articles from reliable sites such as google scholar would make them sufficient and
more believable. Though, the statistics presented make it strengthened.
3. Most inferences are logical. The part about religious beliefs could be supported with evidence and
explanations to have a background idea before writing it immediately at the conclusion.
4. The other side of the argument is presented. Legalization of abortion could violate human rights
to live and can contribute to health issues.
5. Languages and word choice are appropriate to the audience, which is the Argentinian women (not
necessarily since some information is also applicable to all females) and the Lawmakers. There is
no foul language, but the article has sensitive words for children. (rape)
