Hello, I am in need of a research based persuasive essay. I listed the subject as other because it can be about pretty much anything and I have no preference as to what it is written about. Below I have pasted the description and guide for the paper. Thank you
Construct an original argument based a topic of your choice. Ten-ish pages. Five-to-eight sources. MLA. As a reminder, I highly recommend organizing your paper via distinct, unlabeled sections. Allow me to provide you with a hypothetical example. And please know I am not attempting to sound divisive and/or political; I’m simply providing below a topical, debatable argument to keep things interesting and relevant. So — let’s say your argument resembles the following.
The Trump administration’s response to the coronavirus pandemic falls significantly short and justifiably deserves criticism.
Opening Paragraph, which should end in the above thesis statement.
Page 01. Expository Section. Here, you’ll provide basic facts about coronavirus; that way, uninformed readers will have a sturdy foundation so they’re able to more effectively understand the rest of the paper.
Potential Source: The CDC website and/or the WHO website.

Page 10. Call-to-Action Section. Here, you’ll exclusively stick to an appeal to pathos (i.e., you’ll speak emotionally about the topic, inspiring readers to “do something” once they’ve stopped reading). No sources necessary here because it should come from the heart. Given the hypothetical example provided, a smart approach would be to speak about “patriotism.” People love suggesting that America is the best country on the planet, so this section could be an opportunity to emotionally assess the mentality, debunking myths and offering hopeful words for future preventative measures, etc. You get the idea.
Yes, I organized the above hypothetical paper according to “pages”; however, think of it as a guide. So, this may be how I plan to tackle the paper, but I shouldn’t be surprised if “Page 05” turned into two pages — and I shouldn’t be surprised if “Page 08” turned into two paragraphs. The formula above will help you systemize and arrange your support. Trust your impulses. I highly recommend pretending as if your reader likely disagrees with you, and your job is to convince that person. So, you don’t want to insult them; instead, you want to take their hand and bring them over to your side of the argument. They should finish the paper and think, “Well. I’m convinced. My mind is officially changed.”
Notice, by the way, that the MLA/Purdue OWL formula for “Article from a Web Magazine” is commonly used in the above example. I’ve done this on purpose because it’s the formula you’ll embrace when you’re unsure. It’s sort of one-size-fits-all. Media is becoming increasingly complex, and they’re often tough to categorize, so — until MLA is sufficiently updated to reflect today’s ever-changing media landscape, the “Article from a Web Magazine” formula is just fine, as it covers all of the necessary ingredients. And remember. If your source is missing an item required by the formula, you can skip that item. For instance, if you’ve found an excellent article (i.e., one that’s perfect for your paper) — but it does not contain an author’s name — you’ll simply disregard that requirement within the formula. Don’t forget to quote directly. While paraphrasing is fine in 300-and-400-level courses, direct quotes are necessary within the 105 realm.
