 EXAMPLE: (News Article)
Tuguegarao West Central School moves with SDO Tuguegarao as it
launches Project ANTERAN (Accessible, Necessary and Timely
Educational Resources Anchored with the New Normal) on September 21,
2020, showcasing the readiness of the schools in delivering education in
this new normal.
As TWCS cope with this crisis, it is called to renew a sense of
responsibility with a better understanding and a sense of urgency of the
need to bridge the gap in opportunities and assuring that all children
have the same chances for a quality education, under any circumstances.
Argument/
pconvinces,
ersuasmotivates,
ion or moves debates,
readers toward a certain point of argumentative essays,
view, or opinion. The act of trying advertisements
to persuade automatically implies
more than one opinion on the
subject can be argued.
EXAMPLE: (argumentative or opinion)
As online learning becomes more common and more and more
resources are converted to digital form, some people have suggested
that public libraries should be shut down and, in their place,
everyone should be given an iPad with an e-reader subscription. 
Proponents of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns
money because libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe
it will encourage more people to read because they won’t have to
travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click on what they
want to read and read it from wherever they are. They could also
access more materials because libraries won’t have to buy physical
copies of books; they can simply rent out as many digital copies as
they need.
