Question

Which of the following need not be considered while writing a persuasive essay?

• A. audience
• B. author's stance
• C. opposing views
• D. All the above should be considered

Answer 1

The correct option is D All the above should be considered

Every persuasive essay has and needs a target audience to fulfil its purpose. The author's claim or stance are required to position himself/herself concerning the situation or the facts mentioned in the essay. Opposing views help the author to consider possible arguments against his stance and still state why his/her original or former claim is still valid in persuasive essay writing.

Since all these elements need to be considered while writing a persuasive essay, Option D is the correct answer.
