Teacher: So, everyone! I want you to tell me what the best invention of all time is in your opinion.
Don’t forget you will write an argumentative essay about this.
Raise your hand to speak. Come on, this brainstorm can give you an idea about what you can
write about. Yes, Rubén?
Rubén: How many paragraphs must the essay have?
Teacher: 5 paragraphs. The introduction, 3 supporting paragraphs, and the conclusion. So,
Rubén, tell us. What is the most important invention made according to you?
Rubén: Phones!
Teacher: Really? Why?
Rubén: eh... Well. We can communicate with them and watch movies and listen to music. I mean,
if I don't have my phone, I don't have access to so much information.
Teacher: Interesting. But, you will have to give many more reasons than that to convince me. Who
else wants to share? What is the most important invention ever, and why is it so important?
Amanda: The wheel is the most... I mean, in my opinion, the most important invention ever is the
wheel. Thanks to the wheel humankind could progress to achieve so much.
Teacher: Please develop it a little bit more. I agree that the wheel is very important, but why?
Amanda: Sure... Uhm. First, if the people of Mesopotamia hadn't come up with this amazing idea,
people wouldn't have invented any fast means of transportation like cars, airplanes, trains,
subways, and bicycles. So, if someone hadn't invented the wheel, people would have traveled by
horse or even worse, people would have walked everywhere. That means of course that traveling
and exploring the world wouldn't have been easy at all if nobody had created the wheel and axle.
Not only that, if no one had created cars, trains or airplanes, we couldn't have transported
products easily either, that means a very slow development of economy and technology. In other
words, if the people of Mesopotamia hadn't invented the wheel, we wouldn't have invented phones
and we wouldn't have reached the level of technology we have today.
Teacher: Well done, you have proven your opinion using some convincing arguments. I want to
know, however, what does Ruben think?
Ruben: I changed my mind. I agree with Amanda, but only because she said that if there hadn't
been anyone who invented the wheel, we wouldn't have invented phones.
Teacher: Ok class. It’s time to write now. Don’t forget it is a 5-paragraph essay. You won’t get
all of the points if you write less than that, and I will check spelling. If I find 3 mistakes, I will
take a point away. alguien me ayuda?
