Do you find the argument Rachel Carson presents in Chapter II of Silent Spring persuasive? Use what you have learned about how authors develop arguments to write a one-paragraph evaluation of Carson’s argument.

Answer:

Rachel Carson presents a convincing argument. She uses facts, examples, and expert opinions to appeal to logos to support her claim that pesticides are extremely destructive and only partially effective. She organizes her argument logically, establishing the dangers of pesticides and, then, examining the misuse of these chemicals.

She clearly outlines her contentions and puts forth the call to action: the public needs to inform themselves in order to make a decision about how to proceed.
