PHI332 : The Class : Argument ID : Topic Sentence : Exercise 2.12.3

Exercise 2.12.3

Mark the topic sentence and inference indicators. Then diagram the argument in the paragraph.

If talking about money sounds venal or trivial, remember that much more than money is normally at stake here. When someone has to quit work, she may well lose her career. Savings decimated late in life cannot be recouped in the few remaining years of employability, so the loss compromises the quality of the rest of the caregiver's life. For a young person, the chance to go to college may be lost to the attempt to pay debts due to an illness in the family, and this decisively shapes an entire life (294).
