Task 6. Extracting Information<br />

Through technology, you are able read, watch and listen to a lot of<br />

information. These information may influence you to believe certain ideas and push<br />

you to take some form of action. Some information may also dissuade you from<br />

believing or doing other things.<br />

Many writers use argumentative texts to persuade the readers to agree to<br />

their points of view. Writers do so, not just by presenting information, but by showing<br />

the pros and cons of an issue. In extracting information from an argumentative text,<br />

you must be able to note the issue and the supporting (pros) and opposing (cons)<br />

opinions about the issue.<br />
