Explain - explain what your rebuttal/additional point means in further detail
•
Evidence - real, recent and relevant example that backs the rebuttal/additional point up (usually a statistic but not always)
•
Link back - summarise both points back to question, analyse both points - some prompts you may wish to use are...

- are they a mix contributing to the problem?
- what are the consequences of this?
- does it link to another paragraph?
