Tyson mentions the golden record that is attached to the side of Voyager 2. That record includes music, voices, and other sounds that represent Earth and its occupants. Imagine that you are able to choose a sound to add to that record. What sound would it be? Write an argumentative essay in which you state and defend your choice. Follow these steps as you write: 1. Clearly state your position, or claim, in an introductory paragraph. This should include both your choice of a sound and a broad reason for it.
2. In the body of the essay, provide specific reasons for your choice, and support them with evidence from Tyson’s essay, your own observations, or another source.
3. Organize your reasons and evidence logically. Use transitional words and phrases, such as because, instead, and after, to clarify the relationships between your claims, your reasons, and the supporting evidence.
4. Conclude with a strong closing statement that follows from and supports your argument.
5. This essay requires you to think of evidence and reasoning from your own thoughts and experiences. However, you should find relevant evidence and reasoning from sources other than just your own experiences. While writing, take some time to complete online searches as needed to support your thinking. When you finish, reread your essay to revise any ideas. You need only write the first draft, but make sure to do your best with spelling and grammar. Your completed essay should be 2–3 paragraph
