Concluding sentence : If you follow this process, you will surely have a successful
garden.
EXAMPLE
Because I am a curious person, I take every chance I get to
travel and learn about different countries and customs. Before
I leave on a trip, I prepare myself for the new country by
reading about it. I investigate the things I am interested in
and, later, I can compare my opinions about the country
before and after my visit. When I arrive in the country, I try to
find places outside the regular tourist attractions so that I will
come in contact with the native people who can often tell me
more about the country than the tourist guides. In addition, I
try to stay with a native family while I am visiting a country;
in this way, I discover more about the country and, usually,
more about myself.

PROCESS PARAGRAPH
EXAMPLE
MAKING ETHANOL IN INDONESIA
Ethanol can be produced from the fermentation of some crops
that contain starch: corn, wheat, sugar cane, and in Indonesia,
sweet potatoes and especially, cassava. In the process of converting
cassava to ethanol, the first step is milling (reduction of the size of
the particles). Next, the milled particles are cooled; the cassava is
cooled; the cassava is hydrated, and its starch is gelatinized.
Following that step, the starch is converted by enzymic hydrolysis
into sugars, and then the ethanol from the sugars, including
limited dextrin conversion, is fermented. In the final step, the
ethanol is recovered through distillation, and the cassava residues
are recovered by evaporation and waste treatment.
PROCESS PARAGRAPH
EXAMPLE
THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT
Trapped heat in the atmosphere of the earth results in the
greenhouse effect, but how does it happen? First, the sun warms the
earth and then heat is trapped by certain gases in the atmosphere
that act like the glass in a greenhouse. Usually this heat is essential
to prevent freezing temperatures on earth, but as the levels of these
gases are increased, more heat is created than is necessary. Yet that
is exactly what is happening on earth today. The rising level of gases
comes from two major man-made sources: chlorofluorocarbons and
carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
has grown more than 25% since the Industrial Revolution, and over
11% since 1959. As a result of the raised level of these two gases,
“global warming” is occurring; the earth is getting warmer.

ARGUMENTATIVE
PARAGRAPH
Jati Suryanto, S.Pd, Dipl. TESOL
ARGUMENTATIVE PARAGRAPH
Aims to change the way the reader thinks
Aims to influence the reader to do something.
Generally the writer wants the reader to: 1) accept or
reject an idea, 2) realize that action should be taken to
solve a problem, 3) try a new way of doing something.
WAYS TO PERSUADE READERS
The writer gives evidence to support his or her
viewpoint.
Consider the best argument against his or her
viewpoint that an opponent might have.
Refute that argument by showing why it is wrong,
weak or of lesser importance.
Formula of an argument process =
PROPOSAL = (writer’s ideas + evidence) +
(opponent’s argument + refutation + evidence).
LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH
EXAMPLE
Additional classes in the afternoon for better preparation of
having the final exam for high school students are superfluous.
To begin with, some people argue that this program assist the
students to face the exam. However, this argument is groundless
since students have had their daily class which is sufficient to
face the test. Moreover, most parents think that such a program
is not effective at all as this is just wasting time and energy. As a
result, it is evident that children are reluctant to come and join.
Indeed, this condition really never gives any positive
contributions for the improvement or progress in studying to
students. Therefore, it is essential that the additional classes in
afternoon for high school students be stopped.
DISCUSSION

argumentative paragraph?
How is the paragraph outlined?
How many paragraph does the writer use to support
the proposal?
What does the opponents of the argument say?
What is the writer’s refutation on the opponent’s
argument?
ARGUMENTATIVE PARAGRAPH OUTLINE
Proposal/topic sentence.
Argument 1
Opponents opinion and your refutations (argument 2).
Argument 3
Conclusion
CRITERIA OF A GOOD ARGUMENTATIVE
PROPOSAL
It is not a neutrality.
The writer must demonstrate the necessity of reading
the writer’s proposal.
The writer should avoid obvious proposals, e.g. : “Are
there biological differences between males and
females?”.
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING SENTENCES ARE
GOOD PROPOSAL
1. Space exploration should be stopped.
2. Was Picasso a great painter?
3. Automobile pollution in Jakarta is a major problem.
4. Aerobic exercise is not good for women.
5. Young children should not be allowed to eat too much
sugar.
6. Indonesians love money.
7. Life in Sahara desert is difficult.
8. Should Chinese women with more than one child be
sterilized?
REASON FOR AND REASON AGAINST
PROPOSAL: All handguns sales should be prohibited.
REASON FOR (PROS):
Would decrease violent crimes
Would save taxpayer money (fewer police)
Would help create a better social environment
REASON AGAINST (CONS):
Would restrict individual freedom (a person could not
buy what he or she wanted).
Write three reasons for and one main reason
against each of the following proposals
1. Proposal: Prostitution should not be legalized.
Reasons for:__________________________________
Reasons against:_______________________
2. The world would be better with one language.
Reasons for:___________________________
Reasons against:_______________________
THE REFUTATION
In an argumentative paragraph, it is important that you
present the opponents reasons.
Then you have to refute them:
1. Method: Demonstrate that your opponent’s reason is
wrong because it is based on incorrect or misleading
information.
2. Method 2: Show that your opponents’ reason is weak
because it is based on insufficient information or ignores
significant information.
3. Method 3: Agree that your opponent’s reason is valid, but
show that your points of support are more compelling.
EXAMPLE OF REFUTATION
Proposal: Gun selling should be banned.
MAIN REASON AGAINST: Would restrict individual
freedom ( a person couldn’t buy what he or she
wanted).
ATTACK AND REFUTATION: The opponent is
partially right – freedom to buy would be restricted,
but freedom from fear and freedom of movement
would be increased.
LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING EXAMPLE OF
REFUTATIONS
Proposal: Workers should not be forced to retire at age sixty-five.
…………………………………………..
Those who disagree with this proposal point out that as people
grow older their bodies begin to slow down, and it is risky for
them to continue working. Actually, this is true in only one
respect-they body does slow down. However, accident rates for
those over sixty-five are slightly less than those for people under
sixty-five. How can we explain this? Simply, workers over sixty-
five have far more experience in their jobs than younger workers,
and workers over sixty-five are far more aware of their limitations.
EXAMPLE OF REFUTATION
Proposal: Abortion should be legal.
Main reason against and refutation:
………………………………………………………………………………………
“Pro-life” people argue that abortion is the killing of a potential
human being. This is undeniably true. Nevertheless, as has been
pointed out, if abortion is illegal, there will be; 1) a dramatic
increase in unwanted, neglected, and abused children; 2) the
number of women who die getting illegal, unhygienic abortions
will increase greatly; and 3) women will lose what they have
fought so hard for- the basic right to control their own bodies.
These three points outweigh the argument of the pro-lifers.
EXAMPLE OF REFUTATION
Proposal: Sex education is appropriate for sixth grade in the United States.
Main reasons against and refutation:
…………………………………………………………………………………………………….
The opponents of this ideas claim that most eleven-year-olds have not
seen information about sex; therefore, teaching them sex education would
put the idea of sex into their minds. Nothing could be further from the
truth; most eleven-year-olds have been exposed to sex long before the
sixth grade. For example, the January 1998 Neilsen TV rating showed that
two of the show most heavily watched by eight-and then- year-olds were
‘Seinfeld” and “friends – both of which contain a heavy dose of sexual
content. These and other TV shows, combined with drugstore sex
magazines, “R” –rated movie, and even “sexy” comic books, expose
children to sex long before they are in the sixth grade.

Colorado snow conditions are much better than Japanese snow
conditions for downhill skiers like me. First, Colorado mountain
snow is drier than Japanese snow. For example, in ski areas like Vail
and Aspen, I can’t make a complete snowball because the snow isn’t
sticky enough, but in Japanese ski areas, making snowballs is easy.
The drier snow in Colorado has two advantages: my clothes stay dry
even when I fall, and my skis move through the ‘powder’ snow
quickly because they do not stick. In addition to the quality of the
Colorado snow, the weather conditions make the ski season both
more pleasant and longer in the U.S. Most Japanese ski areas open
in the middle of December and close in mid-March, but Colorado
skiers can begin skiing in November, and sometimes the ski areas
are open until the end of April. Moreover, ski areas in Japan are
known for their cloudy, damp weather, but in Colorado, the bright
sun and dry weather make it possible to ski comfortably, sometimes
even in shorts and shirt! For these reasons, many Japanese skiers
dream of coming to the U.S. to ski.
Colorado snow conditions are much better than Japanese

ski resorts have wet, sticky snow; I can easily make snowballs

are open in mid-December and close by mid-March, and the
weather at these resorts is generally cloudy, damp, and
consequently very cold. In Colorado, however, conditions are
far better. First, Colorado snow is dry; for example, in ski areas
