This is a great article from The New York Times. This article discusses the debate around the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes. The sentence structures and the use of thought extenders and derouters in this article is typically GRE Style.

I happened to read an article in The New York Times, about the situation in Syria, where people are starving. The situation is not because of famine. The situation is the ramification of political unrest. It is very touching to read about the plight of innocent people. How can the international community be apathetic to the needs of 800,000 people out there. Read this article and write down what you feel should be done to help the needy people out there.

<p>This is an article from The Atlantic.
It is very simple and straight forward. I hope you will not have any difficulty understanding it.
Focus on the use of methaphors and try to thick about the effect, the author is trying to create through them.

This article is from The New York Times.
I am posting this article because, I want you to focus on the structure of the article.
Ask yourself, "Why is the author starting with a question?" "What is the purpose of this question?"
Such critical thinking will help you understand the author's tone better.
