Re: [请益] 快被外国老师搞混了 求教Argument Essay写作

你现在问题症结是思考方式。
首先厘清,你写的是论说文,所以你要说服读者你说的是正确的真理,但是什么是真理呢
?其实世界上没有真理,只有作者的自圆其说。然后社群专业同侪检验,你的论点在言论
市场中竞争,看能不能幸运出线。再继续探讨下去会讲更深的哲学,但是目前这样就够了
,先就此打住。
英文写作思考方式其实就是纲举目张,正反合。大论点底下一定要有(相关的)小论点去支
撑。你谈的所有梗一定都有正反两面,然后激荡冲突以后会有新的真理(合,暂时性)出现
,之后无限循环下去,所以真理是属于一种不断革命论,然后随时间典范会移转(但是你
一个普通人走不到这一步),你现在要玩的就是这样的游戏。看到这边你可以想一想为何
你的写作课程是叫做argument essay。这就是一种学术训练的方式,借由思考、思辨、自
己跟自己打架、自己跟外在世界打架,不断在正反合的循环里激荡,然后勇敢的用你的脑
跟手同心协力把它写出来,成为一个真实的劳动成果。
你主题是关于性别,那就找出三个梗:A、B、C来讲,但是每个梗在现今市场上一定会有正
反(或阴阳或黑白或上下或高低...)的论述,所以你要把你找到的证据在文章主体里表达
成这样:
A的
正VS反
小结A(合)
B的
正VS反
小结B(合)
C的
正VS反
小结C(合)
最后你在整个文章的大结论里,看是要捧哪个多一点,贬哪个多一点,然后自行宏观调控
之后说出自己总结的结论。
你这样做的话,你的老师才看得出你的(正-反-合)思辩过程,至于是不是真的真理他不在
乎,他只在乎你是怎样建构你自己的真理出来,若他认可了,就表示你有独立思考的能力
(这很重要),人类文明才有继续解放演进的可能。
我发现你心底是在"赞成女生赤膊"跟"为什么女生被认为不能赤膊"中打转走不出来。
建议你内容就只专心探讨前者就好,把支持你的论点找出来,
跟反对你的论点也找出来,然后把制造的稻草人往死里打,
得出应该要让女人打赤膊的结论。
※ 引述《D122 (小黑球)》之铭言:
: 如题 小弟最近在外国读语言学校
: 虽然是语言的不同 文法 用词习惯让我写英文文章一直受到挫折
: 但最近写Argument Essay一直跟老师有疑惑的点对不上
: 以下是小弟目前草稿
: Gender Topless Equality
: Have you ever thought that it is strange that only men can be topless?
: In
: fact, the attitudes toward women’s bodies are still conservative. For
: example, social media, like Instagram, prohibits any pictures with women’s
: nipples, but Instagram requires “every” user to wear clothes. In 2015, Adda
: Smardottir, a student, held the activity “Free the nipple”. She argued with
: the unfair standard of social media. In short, currently, some people still
: cannot accept topless women, but actually, bare breasts are not as bad as
: most people think, and this argument can be made on three sides, gender
: equality, social media, and patriarchy.
: Gender topless equality is really a part of gender equality. In our
: daily
: life, women always wear bras and cover their breasts. Some people think that
: it is common, while some people think that it is illogical. Steinfeld (2017)
: claimed that women have totally different opinions to whether they can show
: their breasts. These differences depend on how they were born and grew up.
: Most of all, it is true that attitudes toward genders, especially when
: topless, are not equality. However, Steinfeld (2017) showed that in some
: cultures around the world, like aboriginal communities, women go topless to
: this day. Hence, topless women might not be bad as some people think, and not
: every person can not accept topless women. Actually, male and female breasts
: are similar in composition, and breasts are just parts of people, but society
: just rejects women’s breasts. It is unreasonable, and the right of topless
: really belongs to women. Only when women really have the right to decide
: whether they show their breasts, Gender equality will exist.
: In social media, pictures with topless women are not allowed to be
: posted.
: Wheeling (2015) showed that Facebook and Instagram have the double standard
: when judging pictures with bare humans, and many users’ accounts are closed
: due the rule of posting pictures. Moreover, Steinfeld (2017) claimed that the
: reason why Facebook banned the topless pictures is that Facebook thought that
: some audiences may be sensitive to the pictures. It is necessary to consider
: users’ positions. However, Fischtein (2015) mentioned that people aged 60
: and over were least accepting of female topless behavior. It is because older
: people tend to be more conservative. It means that the most main users of
: social media, younger peoples, accept topless women more than older people.
: For another, Steinfeld (2017) claimed that the laws of public indecency are
: nebulous, so people can explain them in their own ways. In conclusion, the
: reason why Facebook banned users is not very reasonable, because just
: minority users can not accept pictures with topless women, but they really
: have a choice to reject them. In addition, to argue this controversial
: phenomenon, artists created the image of “an acceptable nipple”, a male
: nipple for people to paste it on their topless pictures.
: Hundreds years ago, people were in a patriarchy. Wheelng (2015) also
: claimed
: that women are more likely to be treated as sex objects. Patriarchy is a
: social system in which men have all the power. The society was controlled by
: men, and women were just properties of men. In addition, some people do not
: care that women are being dominated by men, and some women even promote this
: situations to others, including their daughters. Even in modern times, some
: people still treat women as sex objects. It causes the belief that women’s
: bodies are sexual and should be covered. However, this concept of females is
: really out of date, because in women’s view, men’s bodies are also sexual,
: but topless men can be accepted and not against the law of public indecency.
: To eliminate the bad tradition from patriarchy, the unfair attitudes toward
: women must be changed.
: In short, women really have right to show their breasts in public.
: There are
: many concepts of this topic in three sides, gender equality, social media,
: and patriarchy. Compared to attitudes toward topless men, attitudes toward
: topless women are too biased. Now, advanced countries are working for gender
: equality, but just the view of sex is still conservative. In social media,
: the double standard toward different genders is unreasonable. For another,
: patriarchy has limited a lot of women’s rights for a long time, and it is
: time to change this unreasonable situation. In conclusion, gender topless
: equality is necessary and represents an important process of women’s right.
: If women can show themselves without bias, the relationship between different
: genders would be better, and the society would be kinder and fairer to women.
: 因为要用到APA格式引用的关系 找两方观点相关的文章已经很头大了
: 却更被说"没看到三个side的各两方论点"
: 虽然列给老师看了 但跟他说还是一个头两个大
: 尤其在Social media那一段 老师是说没两方点 但我是要反驳"Facebook方的想法"
: 是因为我说得太委婉吗(同学表示) 还是Organization上的问题呢(不习惯的点)
: 因为老师一直跳针的点是他不清楚哪个点 但跟他问了很久他却也只是说不行
: 所以想请各位提供意见 感谢
