    I believe that the following commentary was effective in achieving its purpose. In the text‚ Ana Rand presents the event as human greatness by using pathos and vivid illustrations.

    Moon Landing Each of these four texts uses essential rhetorical techniques in order to effectively get across each purpose‚ these purposes being quite different in each text. The Times article is very analytical‚ while the speech by Safire focuses most heavily on the emotional side of the moon landing in the hypothetical context of the text.
