I detect, that Richard Peck my not like to waste his time on reading others feelings, thoughts, or ideas. In my assessment, this appears to be absolutely hypocritical of him. I myself appreciate reading about different people's self-expressions besides just my own. Therefore, by my observation of Richard Peck statement; it is just a mere feeling, thought or ideas he is projecting. So how ironic is his statement? In my conclusion, it’s bona fide irony.…

    All can relate to that one special time of the year, Christmas, when whole families unite and spend hours endlessly sharing stories, making memories, and of course, opening presents! What happens though, when all of the sentimental value of Christmas is replaced solely with physical value, the gifts? What would Christmas be like then? Richard Rodriguez takes the readers through one of his annual Christmases and brings to light, through his thoughts, the disconnect that exists between himself, his siblings, and his parents. Rodriguez’ chronological presentation of events with flashbacks, short, abrupt syntax, light-hearted attention to detail and concerned tone contribute to suggest his worried attitude toward his family.…

    Winthrop preaches about unity and togetherness to his fellow Puritans, weary and trepidatious about the dangers of their voyage and upcoming settlement, in order to reassure them that their shared religion will keep them all safe and that everything will be okay. Throughout his sermon, he repeats the word “we”, instilling a sense of a common identity into those with him. By saying “we” instead of “I”, he makes his audience sure that he is no different from any of them; that he needs them as much as they need him. He supports this later by claiming that they must show each other “brotherly affection” and keep the ship devoid of any dissension. Furthermore, continuing along the lines of conflictless unity, he alludes to the prophet Micah, who wrote books present in the Old Testament. Many of his books were centered around an idea of a warless world.…

    In this passage from 1984 by George Orwell, Winston is admiring the prole woman below hanging diapers because she loves her family and will even ignore the care of her own body to be helpful towards her family. He is showing that he admires the caring and maternal aspects of this woman and how simple her life is. This passage allows the reader to understand his respect towards the prole life and his desire for a caring figure and simplicity in his own life. Orwell uses a couple different tones here such as a nostalgic one as well as a happy one to prove to you that it is an important quality in Winston’s eyes.

    If one were to try to imagine a world without air, then it would certainly be very different than the world as humans know it. Since air is essential to the livelihood of most life on Earth, it could be considered an “important reality.” In David Foster Wallace’s commencement speech, “This is Water” to the 2005 graduating class of Kenyon College, Wallace states that “the most obvious, ubiquitous, important realities are often the ones that are the hardest to see and talk about.” (Wallace) Despite the necessity for air, most take its beautiful existence for granted. Wallace believes unawareness leads to unhappiness, and thus wants his audience to actively think about their surroundings. He supports this claim by providing a short parable as an extended metaphor, establishing his credibility through the Aristotelian appeal of Ethos, and examining stereotypes commonly held in society. This argument is designed to leave Wallace's audience making attempts to view the world with attentive eyes and develop thoughtful minds.…

    “The Carnivore’s Dilemma”, an essay by Nicolette Hanh Niman, incorporates rhetorical elements, such as logos, ethos, and rhetorical questions, in an attempt to convince the audience that meat itself is not the root of global warming. Written from a rancher’s point of view, the essay relies on studies and logic to prove itself. Niman starts out with a short acknowledgement that the meat industry has a hand in the increasingly noticeable global climate change. She then quickly changes gears, stating that the studies that show the meat industry is a major player in global warming only take the prevailing methods of producing meat into account and spews facts that show the flip side of the food industry.…
