Identify evaluative words, the alternatives they imply, and any assumptions linking evidence to a conclusion. Test whether a neutral paraphrase preserves the facts while changing the persuasive framing.
Worked example
Calling a change a 'rescue' assumes that the current situation needs saving. A neutral phrase such as 'proposed revision' reports a change without deciding its value in advance.
Two Descriptions of One Proposal
Description A: 'At last, the committee will rescue the neglected courtyard by replacing its untidy planting beds with paving. The tidy space will finally be useful.' Description B: 'The committee proposes replacing the courtyard planting beds with paving. The proposal would reduce gardening space and increase the paved area. No usage counts or maintenance estimates accompany the proposal.'
