Persuasive Text Model Worksheet

Read the model text. Then answer the questions and plan a persuasive text of your own.

A Persuasive Text Model

Airports should provide quiet reading zones for travellers. A comfortable place to read can make waiting easier and more enjoyable. First, reading zones give people a peaceful break from busy crowds and announcements. Travellers can sit quietly while they wait for their flights. Second, books and magazines offer an enjoyable way to use spare time. Instead of feeling bored, passengers can explore a story, learn something new or share a book with a younger traveller. Third, a reading area can help families settle in one place. Children can look at books while adults keep an eye on them and check their travel plans. Some people may argue that airports should use every spare space for shops or seating. However, a small reading zone could serve many travellers without taking over the terminal. It can be simple, tidy and easy to use. In short, airports should make room for quiet reading zones. They offer calm, enjoyable and useful ways to spend time before a flight. A little space for books could make a big difference to a journey.

Position: Airports should provide quiet reading zones.

Reasons: a peaceful break; an enjoyable use of time; a place for families to settle.

Other view: Spare space could be used for shops or seating.

Conclusion: Restates the position and ends with a strong final thought.
