Q&R 5

Why is that we write as it is stated?
How can we ever understand any text if we just read and write as it is said, we don't state the essay or our writing assignments with our thoughts. "The concept of rhetorical situation offers insight into the nature of students representations of writing a task"(80), it means to have a relationship with the writing ans and give your opinion and facts to state the point learned and not always what "Wikipedia" says; to go beyond the Internet sources.
As students we need techniques for reading text in ways that gives us more to say to construct complex representations of any reading or actual real life situations."Rhetorical skills can be used to read the sources as well to design the paper". It might be unusual to actually want tO state our opinions in writing assignments, because professors don't always agree and some might even lower your grade. I myself have stated my opinion in previous assignments and receive comments from professors saying "I don't agree" so how is that professors want us to be out spoken when we can't have the freedom we want in our writing. We all view things differently, and don't agree with others concern, wheter it is politics, or literature nothing is the same when we write, we state opinions or just go by what is read, I believe we should state opinions by what we believe and surround with facts that comply with that.
Often things are written by what is read, research papers are never what we think, it is what is known and already stated and then written to that form, when thinking rhetorically we see both facts and opinions. “According to Toulmin, any aspect of an argument may be questioned by the audience and must then be supported with further argument.)In a rhetorical argument, a fact is a claim that an audience will accept as being true without requiring proof, although they may ask for an explanation.”(82) So as we write let's put more opinions and state thing we believe even if at a point it isnt true, we are the writers we choose what we want.
