In Depth Discussion

Today is the last class in our current four class set. We will begin with our collocation exercise. Our reading this week is about vaping.

Our listening material is a TED Talk about being an original. We will discuss it in class. We will have an analytical writing question. You need to find the argument and three points that refute the argument. Please write in paragraph form.

Writing Question: "In order to save a considerable amount of money, Rockingham's century-old town hall should be torn down and replaced by the larger and more energy-efficient building that some citizens have proposed. The old town hall is too small to comfortably accommodate the number of people who are employed by the town. In addition, it is very costly to heat the old hall in winter and cool it in summer. The new, larger building would be more energy efficient, costing less per square foot to heat and cool than the old hall. Furthermore, it would be possible to rent out some of the space in the new building, thereby generating income for the town of Rockingham."
