Write an essay in which you explain how Peter Funt builds an argument to
persuade his audience that the digital age is making it more difficult to preserve
one's memories.
• In your essay, analyze how Funt uses one or more of the features in the directions
that precede the passage (or features of your own choosing) to strengthen the
logic and persuasiveness of his argument. Be sure that your analysis focuses on
the most relevant features of the passage.
• Your essay should not explain whether you agree with Funt's claims, but rather it
should explain how Funt builds an argument to persuade his audience.
