Week 3 Classical Argument Outline

Classical Argument Outline

1. The introduction, which warms up the audience, establishes goodwill and rapport with the readers, and announces the general theme or thesis of the argument.

I will start by asking about lying to feel familiar with the audience; have you ever tell the lie? Or have you ever notice the person's lying?. Then I explain the lie detector that can distinguish the lie. And I will tell about recent tendency with lie detector that used by evidence in the court. And I think it's not proper for the evidence because it is not accurate. So it will be end with this sentence ; The lie detector is not accurate to use in the court as the evidence.

2. The narration, which summarizes relevant background material, provides any information the audience needs to know about the environment and circumstances that produce the argument, and set up the stakes-what’s at risk in this question. In academic writing, this often takes the form of a literature review.

I will summarize the research that I found about two kinds of lie detector-polygraph and FMRI. At first I will explain each of them; how they work or what kind of record need to distinguish? And then I will write about the differences between them. So through this part, audience will know the two kinds of lie detector's principles. 

3. The confirmation,which lays out in a logical order (usually strongest to weakest or most obvious to most subtle) the claims that support the thesis, providing evidence for each claim.

I will start by explaining the limits of the lie detector to prove this device is not accurate. According to my research, there are 3 limits for lie detector. I will explain each of them. And I also find the information about change the standard to accept evidence in the court. So I will use this information to explain the current situation and why I choose this topic.

4. The refutation and concession, which looks at opposing viewpoints to the writer’s claims, anticipating objections from the audience, and allowing as much of the opposing viewpoints as possible without weakening the thesis.

Some people can be argue that the lie detector is a useful device in the court. Because people usually cannot distinguish the other's lie easily. And also they think the lie detector is accurate because it distinguish lie through physiological phenomena that recorded in figure. They may argue the figure is more accurate than the person's guessing. 

And I will refute through my research about limits of the lie detector;In the research, there are information that tell the lie detector's record is just relative, not accurate

5. The summation, which provides a strong conclusion, amplifying the force of the argument,  and showing the readers that this solution is the best at meeting the circumstances.

I will close with a summary of my arguments, and tell the examples about the limits.
