Arguing and Debating

Page 4: sampai uts.docx

7/27/2019 sampai uts.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sampai-utsdocx 4/25

 

Arguing and debating may take place naturally in meeting room when a team is planning

some strategies or when a company faces a big problem and the members of the management staff 

arguing on how to solve it. Arguing and debating may even take place in the canteen when you and

your friends are arguing about what food you are going to eat, or a couple about where to go on

Saturday night.

However, a formal debating usually takes place in a room in which there are two parties

which stand on different positions on certain topics. The candidates of U.S president always have a

formal debate on hot issues. The debates are usually broadcast ad on TV. In short, arguing and

debating need two or more parties (or individuals) with different positions on certain topics.

A. 

ArguingThe word argument is so miss-used that we need to look first at what it is not.

-  An argument is not about who can shout the loudest:

“Will you shut up and listen!”  

-  or about size:

“I’m warning you.”  

-  or about power:

“you are sucked and I don’t want any arguments.”  

-  An argument is not an excuse:

“I left it on the bus, Sir.”  

-  or a series of repetitions:

“Yes, you did!”  

“No, I didn’t.”  

The more logical evidence you can find to support your argument the better your argument will be.

Presenting a good argument. Avoid:

-  points that are irrelevant to the issue

-  statements that are not logical

-  emotional statements or opinions presented as facts

-  personal attacks on the speaker rather than against the argument

B.  Debating

Page 5: sampai uts.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sampai-utsdocx 5/25

Debating is not just having an argument. It involves skill such as research, preparation, teamwork,

speaking-skills, and persuasion. A debate is a topic, usually called the moot. The moot is a claim that

something is true. There are two teams in debating one topic. One team agrees with the moot (the

affirmative) and the other team disagrees (the negative). Usually you are given the topic and told

whether your team is affirmative or negative. This means you may be debating a position you

personally don’t agree with. This is the skill of debating and it helps you understand that there are

two sides to most questions.

The following are phrases that usually used both in arguing and debating:

Opinions, Preferences:

I think ………  The way I see it …….. it’s fairly certain that ………. 

in my opinion …….   As far as I’m concerned ………..  I’m convinced that …………. 

I’d like to ………..  If it were up to me ……….  I honestly fell that …………. 

I’d rather …………..  I supposed ….. I suspect that …… I strongly believe that ……. 

I’d prefer ………….  I’m pretty sure that …………  Without a doubt ………….. 

Disagreeing:

I don’t think that……………………  I’m afraid I don’t agree ……….. 

I don’t you think it would be better ……..  Frankly, I doubt if ……………… 

I don’t agree ……………….  Let’s face it,

I’d prefer …………………..  The truth of the matter is ……………… 

Shouldn’t we consider ……………………… The problem with your point of view is that 

…. 

But what about ………………. 

Giving Reason and Offering Explanations:

I start with ………….  Many people think ……………… 

The reason why ………………….  Considering ………………….. 

That’s why ………………………..   Allowing for the fact that ……………….. 

For this reason……………..  When you considering that …………………….. 

That’s the reason why ………………….. 

Practice:

Choose one of the topics, are you an affirmative or negative? Give the

opinion/reason/explanation in your conversation.

1.  Men and Women are equal at last?

2.  Violence in the media.

3.  Infotainment show.4.  The importance of Grammar.

Chapter 3

Writing Business Letter

1.  Collection Letter

Costumers usually settle their accounts by cheque when payment it due, according to the

terms of payment. However, some overlook the date and have to be reminded of the amounts

outstanding. The first letter is written in a friendly tone, as the delay may have been due to anoversight. When payment has not been received in reply to this reminder, the creditor will write

Page 7: sampai uts.docx

7/27/2019 sampai uts.docx

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sampai-utsdocx 7/25

again in a firmer tone. If the debtor gives no reason for non-payment and sends no remittance, the

last course is to use the services of a collection agency to take legal action.

There may be good reasons for the costumer’s inability to pay. Where possible be should at

least make a part payment, and agree to settle the balance of this account within a reasonable time.

Every letter in a collection letter contains certain information:

1.  The amount owed

2.  How long the bill is overdue

3.  A specific action the costumer may take

In general, most bills are paid within ten days of receipt, with nearly all rest being paid within the

month. Therefore, when a bill is a month overdue, action is called for. Still, the collection process

must begin gently.

Phrases:We have pleasure in enclosing our check for $ ……. rupiahs 

In payment of your account we enclose a sight draft.

The Union Bank will accept your draft on our behalf.

Payment is being made by banker’s draft in settlement of your invoice for $ ……. 

According to our conditions of sale, your remittance was due on July 31st.

May we remind you that your payment has been overdue since 10th May last.

We must insist on receiving payment by 31st March failing this we shall be compelled to take legal

action.

We have frequently reminded you of the outstanding amount but have received no reply or

remittance from you.

Your failure to pay on time is in turn causing us financial embarrassement.

We trust you will settle the reminder by paying in monthly instalment.

Costumers usually settle their accounts by cheque when payment is due, according to the terms of 

payment. However, some over look the date and have to be reminded of the amount outstanding.

The first letter is written in a friendly tone as the delay may have been due to an oversight. When

payment has not been received in reply to this reminder, the creditor will write again in a firmer

tone. If the debtor gives no reason for non-payment and sends no remittance, the last course is to

use the services of all collection agency or to take legal action.

There may be good reasons for a costumer’s ability to pay. Where possible he should at least make a

part payment and agree to settle the balance for his account within a reasonable time.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sampai-utsdocx 19/25

Memorandum usually called memos are the form commonly used for short, relatively informal

messages between members of the same organization. The memo provides a simplified. The many

uses of memos include announcements and instructions, statements of policy, and informal

reports. Because memos are usually used between people who have a regular working relationship,

the tone of memos tends to be more informal than the tone of other business letter.

C.P. Dalloway & Sons

Interoffice Memo

TO : Charles Dalloway, Jr.

From : Clarissa Woolf 

Date : August 18, 2009

Subject : Alternative methods of payment to suppliers

Because our suppliers have placed us on open account, there are the alternative methods of 

payment available to us:

1.  Check- this methods is slow, it requires clearance through the international banking system

and will cost some of our suppliers additional bank charges. In some countries, clearance can

take as long as a month. 

2.  Bank draft- our bank will issues a draft drawn on a bank in the supplier’s country and

currency. Because we send this directly to our suppliers, they receive prompt credit. 

3.  Electronic transfer our bank instructs an overseas bank to pay our suppliers in either our or

their currency. This is the quickest method of payment but our fees will be the highest. 

Please let me know your preference and I will communicate it to our suppliers.

Unlike other types of business letters, the memo is not prepared on company letterhead. Nor does it

include an inside address, salutation, or complimentary closing. A memo is a streamlined method of 

communication.

Practice:

1.  As administrative assistant to the president of Conway Products, Inc. it is your responsibility

to make reservations at a local restaurant for the annual Christmas party. Because of the

high cost per person, you would like to have as accurate a guest list as possible. Write a

memo to all employees requesting that they let you know by December 1 whether they plan

to attend. 

2.  Your employer, Penelope Louden, requested a schedule of the data processors planned

vactions so that she may decide whether or not to arrange for temporary help during the

summer months. The schedule is as follows: Josie Thompkins, July 1-15; Calvin Bell, July 15-

29; Stephen James, July 22 - August 5; Jennifer Coles, August 12-26. Prepare a memo to Ms.Louden informing her of the schedule and observing that at least processors will always be

present-except during the week of July 22, when both Mr. Bell and Mr. James will be on

vacation. Ask if she’d like you to arrange for a temporary processor for that week.
