Details: This lesson requires you to write an exemplification essay. To exemplify means, simply, to provide examples of something. So, to exemplify the claim that there are lots of good restaurants in town, you’d provide examples of the many good restaurants in town. To exemplify the claim that children and pets are a lot alike, you’d provide examples of their similarities. Exemplification is a great way to prove — or to support — a point. As our text points out: “To be taken seriously and to convince others that your point is well-founded, you must provide specific supporting examples. . . . It’s not fuzzy generalities and highfalutin abstractions that make writing impressive. Just the opposite is true. Facts, anecdotes, statistics, details, opinions, and observations are at the heart of effective writing, giving your work substance and solidity” (173). For possible topics for your exemplification essay, see the list at the end of Chapter 5, Exemplification, in The Longman Reader. Choose a topic from that list, or notify me through Messages if you have a topic of your own that you would prefer to use.
