Argumentative Essay


After I read the topics I chose "smoking should or should not abolished."

My mother smokes, so I would like to investigate about this topic and then say her why stop smoking.

I would like to know why people smoke and what can they do for stop it

It’s a very interesting topic.

About interviews

After I read the interviews of my classmates I consider to be the best the interview of Daniela Roco, because she show us the "other side of the coin" Her interviewee is a teacher and principal. He was a teacher first and he liked it, but now he is a principal of a school, he has many responsibility. It shows me that a teacher can be the boss of the school. May be when I will be a teacher I study for to be a boss too.

Cell phones should be banned in schools- Argumentative essay

Well I decided to write and investigate this topic for these reasons:

1. I was a student and in my school it was prohibited.

2. I will be a teacher, I need to know the pros and cons of that.


I think it will be an educative topic for me and in the future for my students.

I will be the best in this homework, because the topic is very interesting

:)

Interview


Today I will show you my interview. It is very important for me because it's about my mother and some aspect of her life. She was born in Chillán in 1959. She studied nursing at the DUOC in Chillán. She has two beautiful children =)
Nowadays she is working in a small hospital in Coihueco near the house.

Interview: Gladys Meza
Profession: Nurse

1. What did you want to be when you were a child?
Mmm..I want to be a teacher. I like to work with children, I think it's very interesting.

2. When did you decide to study nursing?
Never...jajaja.
Well, I was in high school, in my second grade, I didn't like to study, it was boring.
So I decided to take a course in First Aids, because it was very short.
Then I knew about a course of nursing and took it because it was short too.

3. How was your life during your studies?
Mmm....It was very stressful. I had to study very hard because this course was intensive. My course of First Aids helped me a lot.

4. What was the most relevant event during your studies?
Well I think when I was doing my intership and a patient died. I had to dress him. It was terrible!!
I couldn't forget him.

5. Which are the differences between a small hospital and a big one?
The most important difference is that in a small hospital only you have the responsibility of everything. You are the authority in that place. You decide.
In a big hospital you are another worker.

6. What is the most beautiful feeling or event in your profession?
Patients love and respect you. People are very kind and polite.
They always say "thank you Miss Nurse"

7. Do you have any anecdote related with your job?
Yes. When I was in a small hospital in a countryside. One day a drunk man arrived to the small hospital, I helped him. He had a headache so I gave him a pill.
Two days later he was found dead. His family went to the police because they thought that his death was my fault, but he died of heart attack.

8. How many years have you been working at the hospital?
For 15 years. It has been very interesting and wonderfull.




This was the interview to my mother, I had a fun time with her. I knew things that I never thought.

I hope you like it !! =)

Assignment

Well about the assignment about argumentative essays:1- This topic is a little bit complicated for me,it's difficult to understand. I got some ideas*Feeling cannot be supported*Write about general topic is not a good idea because it is very global...too general.2- Argumentative essays try to convince your listener or reader to accept your opinion.3-when you write an argumentative essay you must write objectively, logically and respectfully.Argumentative essay is a very interesting piece of writing, you must use your intelligence and clear ideas for expressing your topics in a good way.
