Why Are Your Clothes So Cheap? Scope September 2015

Author’s Tone Disapproving Word choice from the article: -unthinkable -dangerous and dirty -viciously -heartbreakingly

Opinion Statement Include the SOCIAL ISSUE that you are referring to. It is dangerous. Sweatshops are too dangerous for workers. Avoid negative or offensive words (stupid, dumb, etc.)

Details Too Vague Workers wages are low. Workers are treated unfairly. Be Specific! In Bangladesh, the minimum wage is 50 cents, one of the lowest in the world. Many workers who speak out for higher pay and safer working conditions are fired.
