Finding a small yet strong argument

Find a small yet strong argument from one of the two readings (files are included here). The argument found would later be used for a short but very important essay!

This is the structure of the essay that would be used later on to write it; I just included it here for reference.

Engage the arguments with separate paragraphs for each part of each exchange:

1-Explain argument (separate paragraph)

2-Your reply to argument (separate paragraph)

3 -Possible counter-reply to your reply (separate paragraph)

4-Your rejoinder to counter-reply (separate paragraph)
