Abstract: This study examined the syntactic and semantic aspects of argumentatives essay of IELTS writing task 2 (AEIWT2) written by students at an English center in Da Nang from the perspectives of Martin's (2005) appraisal framework and Halliday's (2004) systemic functional linguistics. Besides, the study analyzed students' AEIWT2 in terms of their placement as theme or rheme in the sample texts collected, given the significance of the theme-rheme structure in communication. The data were gathered with the qualitative method in order to determine the kinds of JUDGEMENT that students apply to their writing. Based on the research questions, the findings were discussed. First, a thorough analysis of each type of JUDGEMENT and its subcategories was conducted in order to assess the semantic features of the identified JUDGEMENT in the argumentative essays of IELTS writing task 2. Second, word groups and the theme-rheme structure of the linguistic items in the data that indicated judgment were discussed in relation to their syntactic characteristics. Through the data collected, the number of words of evaluative language belonging to subsystem JUDGEMENT used by students at the English Center for AEIWT2 was low. Besides, there was a large difference in quality of linguistic items of JUDGEMENT used in students’ AEIWT2. Therefore, the ability to persuade readers to seek agreement on the points raised in argumentative essays for AEIWT2 was not high. It was anticipated that the study helped educators and English language learners comprehend the appraisal framework better, and students were able to use their teachers' teaching strategies to learn how to use appraisal resources when writing AEIWT2.
Keywords: Appraisal theory, judgement, framework, IELTS writing task, argumentative essay.
