To entertain? To inform? To explain?<\/em>\u00a0<em>To Express?<\/em>\u00a0Author\u2019s purpose is the reason or reasons an author has for writing a specific text. Authors may have more than one purpose for writing. Purpose can be stated explicitly, or readers may have to infer the intent.<\/p>\n<p>Identifying purpose may give readers clues about how to approach a text and what strategies to use before, during, and after reading to build an understanding of the author\u2019s central argument.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Assignment:<\/strong>\u00a0Utilize the reading you selected in week 2 as the basis for your own writing. Based on your reading, analysis, and response to last week\u2019s discussion board, develop an argument that identifies the author\u2019s purpose. For example, \u201cThe author\u2019s purpose is to persuade the reader \u2026 through the stated argument\u201d. \u00a0This claim should be the basis of your thesis statement.<\/p>\n<p>Then, utilize aspects of the essay to support your thesis statement with solid textual evidence. This will require you to quote and\/or paraphrase the reading and providing citations when necessary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guiding Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Which words do you think best describe the main reason the author wrote this selection: to provide readers with information? To describe a person, event, or issue? To express their own thoughts and feelings? To persuade readers to think about an issue in a certain way and to act? \u2022 Why did the author write from a particular point of view?\u2022 How did the author influence your response to the selection?\u2022 Was the author\u2019s purpose specifically stated?\u2022 Do you think that the author achieved his\/her intended purposes? Did the article effectively give information? Express the author\u2019s thoughts and feelings? Persuade readers to think about an issue and\/or take action?\u2022 What examples from the text support your conclusions about author\u2019s purpose?<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/onlineclassesguru.com\/orders\/ordernow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTyj99p60XCLyLk1htB7-1neRt8-2QdnenNlQ&usqp=CAU\"target=\"_http:\/\/onlineclassesguru.com\/orders\/ordernow\"\/><\/center><p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>English 103 Due: 9\/10 Submitted on Canvas by the end of the day.
