English Letter of Persuasion

Dear Sir/Madam,

REQUEST FOR ROAD GRITTING

I am writing to you today to request that my road, Knobatnight Lane in Ipswich, be made a priority in the future for gritting. As I’m sure you know the road itself is on the main bus route for our local secondary school, the prestigious Clive Warren’s Finishing School of Excellency, and I’m concerned that a lack of gritting during winter weather could possibly endanger people and their property or leave buses trying to continue down their route stranded.

Furthermore, as you may be aware, Knobatnight Lane has achieved notoriety in recent years due to the spate of killings by rogue escapee emus from the world famous Nutty Acre’s emu sanctuary based on the end of the street on Knowyourrole Boulevard. I’m worried that these wild beasts, having turned their backs on the peaceful and respectful nature of Nutty Acre’s, will render any snow-stragglers stranded by stopped buses bereft of life (so to speak). We need to keep our streets safe and gritting seems to be the only way (After the council rejected my suggestion for a series of emu nets to be installed on every street corner)

Overall I think that the safety of the people living in this area is paramount and with a small amount of effort, time and mainly, grit, together we can save lives.

Yours Sincerely

K.

    This is Jack Merridew. It has been many years since we last saw each other, and so much has happened since then. I’m sure you’re a very different person now, as am I. I am not that same boy you knew, fifteen years can really change a person. Ten years ago, you sent me a letter blaming me for Simon and Piggy’s deaths, and everything else that happened on the island. I didn’t respond back then because I was in the Seminary and was trying to worship god and put all that happened on the island behind me. I’m writing you this letter now because I am about to become a priest and I feel that I need to clear things up as a last act before I start my new life. This way I can start out with a clean slate.…

    Throughout the speeches both presidents get their audience’s attention by using first person singular, first person plural, and second person point of view. Jefferson uses first person singular in all the paragraphs, except 3 and 4 when he talks about the 13 principles the government should follow. He uses words like “I”, “me”, and “myself” to lay out his vision of America and the government. Kennedy on the other hand, uses first person singular to allude to his experience in combat. Jefferson doesn’t really use second person point of view, but he did at the end of paragraph 5 when he says, “your indulgence”, “your support”, and “your suffrage”. Kennedy is similar because he only uses second person once in the beginning and a lot in the last…
