Read the argument below and complete the instructions that follow.

(1) american schools should utilize a national curriculum to ensure that all students graduate from the public school system with the same background, knowledge, and skills. (2) currently, there is a great variation in the content to which students are exposed depending on what school they attend, where they live, and even how much money families have to invest in education. (3) this observation is particularly evident in english classes because there is a lot of variation between the literature read in classrooms across the country. (4) in 1992, the national council of teachers of english gathered data from schools in the united states to research the most frequently required titles in grades 9 through 12. (5) the study found that there are substantial differences between the percentage of public schools covering these titles (ranging from 54% to 84%) and the percentage of private schools covering these titles (ranging from 34% to 74%). (6) while it is true that the most frequently required titles are not necessarily the best or most representative of available titles, a national curriculum can ensure that students may start college familiar with a foundation in literature pivotal to american culture and cultures around the world.

evaluate the argument above, paying special attention the evidence used. for each sentence, identify the type of evidence that is used. if the sentence is an opinion, describe what evidence or what combination of evidence would best support the opinion. if the sentence expresses a fact, describe what further evidence or information is needed to verify its accuracy.

For "facts" students must identify the type of evidence provided. For opinions, students must give an answer that shows an understanding of the different types of evidence and the strengths and weaknesses of using each. Here is an example:

1. Opinion: The author should use a combination of empirical and testimonial evidence to support the idea that graduating students with the same background, knowledge, and skills will help them succeed in postsecondary endeavors.

2. Fact: The evidence is sentence two could be statistical, testimonial, or empirical depending on what the author used to support this claim. Ideally, this supporting premise would be backed up with a bit of all three.

3. Fact: The evidence is sentence three could be statistical, testimonial, or empirical depending on what the author used to support this claim. Ideally, this supporting premise would be backed up with a bit of all three.

4. Fact: The author needs to give a citation for the study to support this fact.

5. Statistic: The author needs to provide the context and results of the study to make this statistic a strong supporting premise.

6. Opinion: The author should use a combination of empirical and testimonial evidence to support the idea that graduating students with the same background in literature will help them succeed in college. The author also needs to provide evidence, perhaps testimonial, to support the idea that frequently required titles in schools usually include texts that are "pivotal" to American culture and cultures around the world. The author also needs to explain the definition of "pivotal."
