What you need to remember is:

• Nobody cares what your opinion really is
• Be superficial

Tips & tricks:

• When an entire paragraph contradicts with another use expressions like: on the one hand/on the other hand, the traditional view/the new view.
• When you support the main idea use: for example, to illustrate, for instance, because.
• When you use a second argument to support the main idea: furthermore, in addition, similarly, just as, also, moreover.
• The most important idea that you write must be introduced by one of the following words: surely, truly, undoubtedly, clearly, certainly, indeed, as a matter of fact, in fact, most important.
• The conclusion starts with: therefore, in summary, consequently, hence, in conclusion, in short.
• When you talk about the opinion that you argue against, start with: admittedly, certainly, obviously, undoubtedly, one cannot deny that, true, granted, of course, to be sure, it could be argued that.

Paragraphs (as in the post about analysis of an issue):

1. Write the argument (copy/paste) and point the three weak points you identified.
2. Write the first weak point and write one reason ore more reasons why it is not true.
3. Write the second weak point and write one reason ore more reasons why it is not true.
4. Write the third weak point and write one reason ore more reasons why it is not true.
5. Write again the three weak points and say that because of those the argument is not “entirely logically persuasive”.

As an example:

1. The argument that … is based on … but omits certain important concerns that must be addressed to make this argument logically persuasive. The declaration that follows the explanation of what … simply explain …. This alone does not support the main argument.
2. First the argument assumes that … But …
3. Second the argument never concentrates on … Although …
4. Finally, the argument also does not deal with … However …
5. Thus the argument is not completely persuasive. The argument would have been more comprehensive and compelling if …
