Usually the primary purpose of textbook writing is to inform. In textbooks, authors well-informed in a particular subject or discipline identify the terms, facts, and opinions considered essential to an understanding of the field. While authors’ personal interests play a role in what terms or facts are selected and how they are interpreted, the writing bears a primary or central goal which is not to persuade you to see things from the same perspective. In fact, textbook authors frequently give equal time to opposing points of view so that readers can draw their own conclusion.
However, as you turn from your textbooks to the pages of newspapers and magazines, you may encounter writers with other primary goals. Some write to entertain; others write simply to air a personal preference. However, a good portion of the writers you encounter, particularly on the editorial(社论)pages, write in the hope that you will share or at least seriously consider adopting their opinion. They write, in short, with the desire to persuade. To achieve that goal, they may well give you an argument. That doesn’t mean they force you or threaten you. It means they offer a conclusion—the opinion they want you to share—along with some reasons why you should share it. Critical readers try, first of all, to recognize those writers who wish to persuade. Then they analyze the arguments these writers provide.
Authors who give you arguments frequently offer a value judgement—" While zoos may be fun for people, they are not so pleasant for animals. " Or they claim that some event, action, or behavior should or should not take place—"If the name of the accused is published, the name of the accuser should be published as well. "Or else they insist that some belief or attitude should or should not be shared—" People must stop believing that the earth can absorb repeated environmental damage and continue to sustain life. "
Critical readers are different from ordinary readers in that______.
