Can a narative be an argument? Can Stories be Arguments?
Yes both of these can be arguments. while they are not as direct as a presuasive piece strories and naratives argue by showing that certain actions cause certain things to happen. like when Tan talks about how the nature of english placement tests pushes many asian americans toward math and science she is argueing that these test are the cause for this trend. Stories often have a moral to them and this is an argument to behave a certain way.
