Chapter 1
Read for Analyzing
Just as all writers write for a purpose, the same concept holds true for readers. Why do people read? Generally speaking, people read to get information, to entertain themselves, to analyze the author’s viewpoint within a text and/or to determine whether or not the means the author used to deliver his argument were effectively conveyed. When you take the New SAT Writing Test, you will be asked to read an argumentative/persuasive essay first. The sole purpose of reading the assigned essay is to make a rhetorical analysis. In other words, your job is not to agree or disagree with the argument, but to analyze the author’s methods. In order to become an analytical reader you must first learn to identify the parts of an argumentative essay. When you have fully mastered the structure and the purpose of the argumentative essay, you will then begin to be able to assess how successfully it was written.
Lesson 1Identify the Author’s Argument
The author’s argument, also known as the central idea of the essay, is a one or two-sentence declaration of what the author believes. The prompt itself can be a valuable resource: many times it reveals clues regarding the author’s argument. Once it is established, the rest of the text is the author’s attempt to convince the reader that the argument is sound and true. Through a set of claims supported with evidence, the author will use certain rhetorical strategies and persuasive elements to sway the reader’s opinion to his side. We will talk about these terms in greater detail in later chapters.
Why do we need to identify the author’s argument? There are two reasons. One, when you write your analysis, you need to demonstrate that you understand what the assigned passage is all about. Two, when you start to write your response, you need to give a lead, or a little background knowledge about the passage being discussed, and a link to your own thesis statement, which is about how the author effectively uses rhetorical strategies and persuasive elements to make that argument convincing.
