Can anyone help me in writing my 1st AWA. I am totally confused and don't know how and what to write. Can anyone write it for me and explain what steps are needed to follow.
Here is my 1st AWA question:
An ancient, traditional treatment to help reduce obesity - coconut oil - has recently been proven effective. In a study completed last year, 50 volunteers who had issues maintaining a healthy weight were fed a special diet rich in coconut oil for 2 weeks. No volunteer was allowed to eat outside food during the trial, and each volunteer had his or her weight measured several times each day. After 2 weeks, the volunteers had lost an average of 8 pounds each. Therefore, the study proves that coconut oil reduce obesity within a short period of time.
Write a response in which you discuss one or more alternative explanations that could rival the proposed explanation and explain how your explanation(s) could plausibly account for the facts presented in the argument.
PLS HELP.........

Even if somebody write it for you.. you won't be able to get the grasp of the way it should be written.

For this AWA topic: understand what it is asking/... here it is asking you to provide one or more reason for those the given conclusion is not supported by proper facts. Or some assumptions which are made while arriving at conclusion and if those assumptions are proved wrong they can negate the conclusion or weaken the arguments.
for example:
(point 1): Food given in Rich Coconut oil: what if any other component of the diet was the factor in reducing the weight. How this Rich on Coconut oil diet is different than the diet they usually take. Is the only difference here is oil?? or what if they were eating Fatty food before and this diet contains veggies only. Then This could also be the reason for weight loss.
(Point 2): What if along with the food they were also engaged in activities which burn the calories and thus they were able to reduce the weight... nothing is discussed about this in the argument.
This is how you need to develop your thinking ..... and with the help of above mentioned templets your AWA is all set.
