As you read, watch not only for what the author is saying, but how it is said. This
step requires that you read the article to gain an understanding of how the author
presents the evidence and makes it fit into the argument. At this stage of the exercise,
you should also take the time to look up any unfamiliar words or concepts.
Although you are somewhat off the hook critically in this stage, you should be
aware that there are tricks the author can use to make sure you’re following the
argument. Some of them are standard ways to keep the author’s argument separate
from the evidence. Look for clues like: “for example,” “as Professor Source said,” or
“in my study area (or time), I found that.” Also, look for transition words and phrases
(“however,” “despite,” “in addition,” etc.) and the various words clues writers
leave when they switch from their own voice to that of their sources. Others may be
less honest attempts to make you agree. (More transitions at http://bit.ly/5OZ6g7at St. Cloud State University’s Write Place.)
