It&#8217;s important that, when you&#8217;re writing this response, you don&#8217;t just put in your own opinions, but you also put in facts from the text. Some of the things you can put in there are facts, details, statistics, and direct quotations.<\/p>\n<p>What you want to do is look in the text and find things like this that you think will back up your arguments, because you&#8217;re communicating your ideas and findings to other people. <b>You want to find the best way to communicate those ideas and findings.<\/b> Look for facts, details, statistics, and direct quotations to back up your ideas and findings.<\/p>\n<p>What you need to do is take info from the original text, which has all this up here. Take that info first, then base all of your discussion, arguments, and defense off of this information from the text. <b>Notice the difference here when not using supporting evidence.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Consider it like we&#8217;re not even using all this, and you&#8217;re discussing your ideas, you&#8217;re discussing your findings, you&#8217;re arguing your findings, you&#8217;re offering a defense for your findings and ideas.
