Planning an argument

O transporte público debería mellorar a frecuencia nas zonas rurais. A student must develop this original proposal as a short Galician opinion text. She plans to claim that every rural resident lacks a car and that an invented study proves a precise benefit. Her partner suggests a more defensible argument about access to services, a clearly hypothetical village example and a practical discussion of cost and dispersed demand. Neither student has been given real current ridership figures or a municipal budget. The task asks for a relevant position, reasons, a reasonable limitation and a coherent conclusion, not a fabricated research report. The writer must also decide which connector expresses a genuine contrast and which introduces a justified consequence. Language accuracy and paragraph structure will be checked after the substance is planned.

1. What should replace the invented evidence?

Read the worked answer

Use a clearly labelled hypothetical example or accurately supplied data. Explain the access rationale without asserting that every resident shares the same situation.

2. How can the limitation strengthen the response?

Read the worked answer

Acknowledge cost or dispersed demand, then explain a proportionate response. A concessive relationship is useful when it actually connects that limitation with the maintained position.
