Rhetorical Devices In The Telephone By Accawi

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is a government website that provides information about various diseases, disabilities, disorders, etc.. The CDC provides multiple webpages about Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) that list and provide information about causes, treatments, variations, and signs/symptoms of the disorder. On their informative pages, they use rhetorical devices to better portray their message. The CDC effectively uses the three rhetorical devices, pathos, ethos, and logos, to reach their goal of informing their target audience and providing a clear perspective on Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

Rhetorical Analysis of Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle The Jungle, being a persuasive novel in nature, is filled with different rhetorical devices or tools used by Sinclair to effectively convey his message. Sinclair’s goal of encouraging change in America’s economic structure is not an easy feat and Sinclair uses a number of different rhetorical devices to aid him. Through his intense tone, use of periodic sentencing, descriptive diction and other tools of rhetoric, Upton Sinclair constructs a moving novel that makes his message, and the reasoning behind it, clear.Sinclair’s use of periodic sentences allows him to cram details and supporting evidence into his sentence before revealing his interpretation of the evidence. Take for example, “Here

"Johns Hopkins patient safety experts have calculated that more than 250,000 deaths per year are due to medical error…" (John Hopkins Medicine). This soaring number has caused medical errors to become the third leading cause of death in the United States. For many people, medicine seems foreign and unknown. People who have lost loved ones due to medical error desperately look for a reason, and many times that blame falls upon doctors. Media has put a negative connotation on doctors as well, causing their reputation to plummet whenever a hospital procedure turns badly. A renown surgeon and author, Atul Gawande, uses his knowledge and experience to give people a new perspective on medicine. In the article "When Doctors Make Mistakes," Gawande uses rhetorical appeals: ethos, pathos, and logos to prove the need for a change in the medical systems and procedures. He analyzes how the public looks at doctors, giving a new perspective to enlighten the reader that even the best doctors can make mistakes.

In the beginning of the poem we see the line “Time that is moved by little fidget wheels” conveying the meaning he was taken before his time. This refers to the chronological and systematic time of humanity in which is measured by minutes and hours, shown on clocks that are symbolised by bells. This concept of time is far more powerful with the use of personification as emphasised by the capitalisation.

There are many other examples of the Apache ability to tell time using astronomical and instinctive methods. This process has been employed by the Apache for hundreds of years and is an example of the mythic present involved in thought and application.

The rhetorical analysis I composed was written on an article called,“The confessions of a liberal gun owner,”by Justin Cronin. This type of writing opened me up to a new style of composing that I am not familiar with. I really enjoyed being able to show my view of whether I thought that this article was effective. Critisizing the writer for doing certain things was very interesting and made me feel more independent and powerful. I did not like that I could not use my personal opinion but could use what I thought as the audience of the paper. This confused me at first but I eventually understood the reasoning behind it. Telling my personal opinon would dismay readers and disregard my credibility. By stating facts it made my paper sound more

The work that I chose to write about is “The Homeless and Their Children” taken from Jonathan Kozol’s book, “Rachel and Her Children”. This is a story of a woman whom Kozol calls Laura and her four children that lived in a run-down hotel room in 1985.

In the article “Hold The Phone”, written by Kristi York and Liz Hasting, the two authors debate the use of phones and other electronic devices during their children’s extracurricular activities (i.e. gymnastics, ballet, swimming lessons). Both of the writers have a firm standpoint on either side of the argument, with York being against, and Hasting being for the use of phones in the situations described. They direct their disputation towards a parent-based audience, especially at the parents who transport and are involved in their children’s activities. The purpose the authors are trying to portray in the piece is their personal opinions topic with the use of their individual writing tone or voice. York about the topic with the use of their

The first rhetorical strategy I used in my descriptive paragraphs was word choice. I bring this up first because without it, the reader has a vague perception of the story. Although if used accordingly, it revives the story and the reader can fully grasp what you want them to see. The best use of this in my positive paragraph was “spacious”. I wanted the reader to visualize a vast and roomy drive thru while reading my paragraph. Although I could’ve used other words like “large”, or “big” they wouldn’t have had the same effect because a place can be big and still be constricting. As for my negative paragraph my best word choice would have to be “snatched”. I used snatched in this context because I believe it gave readers the most negative visual about how the money is taken from the customer’s hand. Other words that I could have used like “taken” or “grab” would have failed to leave the same impression of negativity in the reader. Sentence structure is another rhetorical strategy that also leaves an impression on the reader.

Florence Kelley delivered a speech to the National American Woman Suffrage Association. The reason Florence Kelley delivered this speech was to convince the women of the asscocitation to abolish child labor.

Good morning to you. My name is Jholar. I am a pre-dental student that came to Pittsburgh because University of Pittsburgh had the number one dental school in America. Spring of 2015, I was taking two classes which got challenging, so I made a smart move to drop the two classes. I tried seeking help over the phone from the Community College of Allegheny County, and my previous college in Atlanta, but I had no luck.

This is evident as Tykwer utilises the film techniques of close up on the clock as Lola is screaming furiously, which then leads to Lola shattering the clock. Showing that she will defeat the time, eventually and will save Manni. Also in the very beginning of the movie a golden clock with a demon face is shown, foreshadowing is used to prove that something bad is going to happen to the characters during the movie, which turned out to be true. Similarly in the poem Time - an unstoppable whirlpool by the poet Nikhil Parekh conveys an identical point, using the technique metaphor, this is mentioned 'time is an incredulously gushing tornado which simply doesn't stop for you' conveying time as a tornado which cannot be slowed down or brought to a stop you simply have to "go with the flow", also through the use of visual imagery in the phrase 'Time is a tirelessly inevitable waterfall who simply does not stop for you', it is evident that the text portrays the theme of time as an unstoppable factor. It is through the visualisation of a rushing waterfall, viewers are able to understand the essence of time and the impact it can have on one's human

In Dustlands Blood Red Road, by Moira Young, imagery is used quite effectively throughout the book to give the reader further insight to the struggles that young Saba faces to get her brother back from the four cloaked horsemen. Young begins the book with a poem that states, “Lugh got born first. On midwinter day when the sun hangs low in the sky” (1) giving the reader a clear image of a chilly, windy day when the sun is low and about to set and a woman finally gives birth after nine agonizing months. Therefore, by describing the time of day in a short sentence, Young is providing details without the usual lengthy, overhyped description given by writers who lack imagination. Later in the story when Saba and her little sister, Emmi, are walking

The passage of time is intrinsically connected to every aspect of life, as it is the construct through which we understand human experiences and the framework through which we comprehend our existence. The essence and effects of temporality reverberate through narratives; acting as a catalyst for action, or becoming an impediment to the future. Through the response that characters in The Wanderer and The Tempest have towards the transience of time, it becomes clear how these effects echo throughout the narrative, prompting these events into movement, and how they seep throughout every aspect of these texts.

The time also is a sign of binary opposition. In the man’s point of view, he would love the girl till before the flood. The girl have described that she can love the man until the conversion of the Jews. Time winged chariot symbolize the hindrances of the truthfulness of the man.
