The book you are holding wants to show, first of all, the way thoughts move through positions and oppositions, which you, as a student, are called upon to record or develop in various texts presenting your opinions, and secondly, to inform you about the method by which the weaknesses of a text are highlighted, either by yourself or by an editor.

In this effort, this book comes to help you with:
- Instructions for speech production within texts (reading and understanding the topic, diagram structuring with questions, collecting arguments, methods of linking phrases and paragraphs).
- Supporting material, with ideas and arguments for answering topics corresponding to the thematic units of the second-grade school book.
- Texts referring to the topics of the units of the second-grade school book that provoke thoughts and reflections that directly contribute to the formation and formulation of your opinion.
- Student essays, which are corrected and reconstructed, so that students can learn from their real mistakes.

We hope you enjoy reading the book and use it as a stimulus for thought and as a help for speech.
