Evaluating a text

When you understood the first parte related with titles, 

your next step is to read a lot about your subject. 
You need to search information about it and it's important 
to ask yourself about the value of the text. Is fact or opinion?
 Are you agree with that opinion or not? 
The fact is true? or not? 
Also you need to consider the relevant information 
for your article, text or essay.

Developing plans from titles

Almost all written works begins with a title. You need to be clear about this before you starting to plan your article, text or essay. Also, you need to read about your topic because it's important to know a lot of information and prepare a good work.

Chile has the highest percentage of teenage smokers.

This news is about an international survey which states that Chile has the highest percentage of young smokers (between 13 and 15 years old). I think, the information is very relevant because nowadays a lot of people smoke at home, at schools, in the street, etc. Maybe the teenagers see this behaviour and think "It is a good idea to smoke all the time."

On the other hand,  it is very worrying that so many people smoke in our country, the percentage is very high. It's necessary to improve the restrictions and also the advertising about its dangers.  It is also the job of parents to guide their children, they need to teach them about the importance of a healthy lifestyle, the problems related to smoking and the social implications of it.

Think about it... and see you in the next post..
