Review: unit 5

Topic : producing information-writing for academic purpose 

what i have learned about the topic (body of an academic text)

1. structure of academic text can be compared to burger , meaning that if you can remove one part it will not be complete , which may be said to be the same for academic text

2. when one is constructing an argumentative essay it is vital to choose one side , your essay must be one sided.

that game we played using numbers whereby we were required to write numbers in words .
