A Rhetorical Analysis Of Austin Berghuy's Speech
In Austin Berghuy’s speech he persuaded the audience to stop eating fast-food in order to prevent to risk of obesity. One interesting main point he made in his speech is that although fast food is not the only contributor to obesity, it is still the largest influencing factor on why many people are obese. Another main point Austin made in his speech is that obesity is not only taking a toll on the lives of adults but also affecting the health quality of children. Austin’s posture to me was very confident because he stood tall without slouching or swaying side to side. At times his voice was very shaky and stuttered a bit which was distracting but understandable. I liked how Austin kept eye contact with the camera and did not constantly look

    Mark Gungor’s speech is presented as a dual issue. That is to say, the speaker explains, in such an interesting way, how a difference between men and women’s brain can be made. The register used to express the ideas is really intelligible; therefore it is easy to follow. In addition, public attention is perfectly caught due to the fact that a brain sculpture is used to figure out distinct parts of the brain to establish the characteristics that makes non–identical the thoughts, expressiveness, and so on, depending on the sex. Even if this talk is presented in a neurological way, it is enjoyable even for non-specialized…

    Claiborne F. Jackson, the Governor elect of Missouri, who supported the candidacy of Douglas in the State canvass, made a very remarkable speech in the Breckinridge Convention recently held in Jefferson City. The meaning of his language on that occasion is a question in dispute between the two Democratic factions. This much, however, is certain, that the assembled delegates were delighted with the speech, and cheered it; that a brief report of it, which has appeared in the Bulletin, the Breckinridge organ in this city, indicates that it was hostile to Douglas; that the Republican has not dared to publish the full report furnished by that journal’s own reporters; and that the speaker invoked one of the factions to the support of his administration…

    On June 16th at his very own Trump Tower in New York City, Donald Trump announced that he would be running for president. It was only thirty seconds into his speech when Trump committed his first fallacy. In an attempt to insult the intelligence of his fellow GOP candidates, he compared their incompetence toward air conditioners to their supposed inability to beat ISIS. “They didn’t know the air-conditioner didn’t work,” “How are they going to beat ISIS?” This is a bad example fallacy due to his use of an example that fails to prove the conclusion and has little connection to it. Despite the complete lack of relation between Trump’s example and his conclusion, he was still able to provoke the audience into feelings of contempt toward the other…

    Throughout the essay the author, Mike Downey, makes many first person statements, a powerful tool to be used in persuasive writing; however they can be easily exhausted and detract from the point.

As you continue to read, he states something slightly hyperbolic and how he’s tired of it. Then, a short sentence with what it is, then how he is tired of it. This continues for five paragraphs.…

    After Germany badly attacked the Soviet Union in 1942, Molotov took a trip from Moscow to Washington to persuade President Roosevelt to open a ‘second front’ in France saying that this will draw away the German troop from Soviet Union and give the Red Army a break. Molotov was afraid for his army because as the war continued his army power weakened while Hitler’s was gaining more power. According to Molotov prediction, if a second front was open than about 40 German divisions could be removed from Soviet Union and if such a front could not be open, then Germany could gain so much power and rule the entire continent. Also, on his way back from United States, Molotov stopped in London and presented his plan to Churchill. After, several meeting…

    My paper is about how many people have their own opinions about what being an American is. To complete my research I looked at various articles and videos to really see what everyone thinks. The American voice to me is that we should be able to have freedom and we should have many opportunities to do what we want. In my opinion, I believe that Barack Obama is the best representation of America because he seems like he really cares about even the future of America. Being in American to me means that we have rights to be what we want to be.
