"Skimming a Debate (: a Argument): Keep in Mind that There Are Two Sides
When you read an article that gives two sides of a debate, you will be given two sets
of information. ... The first information set will be on the positive side, giving the
reason and points why someone is for something. The second set of information will
be the same, except it will be why someone is against something."
* Explanation:
If one meets an article with two sides of argument, one should figure out the positive side of the argument and find out the negative side of the argument. Then, organize or compare reasons, causes or points for each argument in two different ways. (Joseph Schier, p. 26)
