Student Examples Example 1 (half of her response) The author's purpose for writing the article is to persuade the reader to believe that it is good that America is manufacturing their own products. Proof that supports the author's purpose is a comment the author included by Kelly Nestor: "folks want to know more about where their products are coming." this quote tells the reader that if customers knew or even lived in the environment in which the product was manufactured, they would feel reassured and would be more likely to buy the product. [To earn an advanced go further to explain how feeling reassured and being more likely to buy the product helps America's economy in the long run.] Example 2 (half of her response) The author's purpose for writing this article is to persuade the reader to believe that more manufacturing jobs are good for America because "[i]n a recent Harris poll of more than 2,000 U.S. consumers, 75 percent said they'd be willing to pay more for American-made products." This would bring jobs to our country which helps out families and creates a cultural feel for the product. "Buyers feel good about their purchases while supporting not just American-made but American-grown products," according to Dr. Batra, a business school professor (at ?) This shows that other than bringing jobs to America, people would like to buy American-made products because they were grown and produced in their homeland. Example 3 (full response) The author's purpose for writing the article "The Return of Made in the USA" was to express his opinion and persuade one to believe that it's great that America is once again manufacturing within the country and creating jobs finally. In the article, Willy Shih of the Harvard Business School states that "consumer demands provide a boost." The high demands for US-made products boost companies' manufacturing here because that demand leads to more jobs returning to the U.S. The more demand, the more jobs we'll see. On another note, foreign auto makers have built over "17 production facilities in the U.S. that employed 500,000 Americans." This statistic shows that even foreign countries are building facilities here due to our decreasing labor costs, which helps us by creating thousands of jobs for Americans.
