1) Environmental Effects of Rock Climbing
I think this topic would be great topic. While it's not widely discussed, that employs opportunities to explore a topic that is unique and not often talked about. As someone who is pretty well versed in the rock climbing community (I work at our local climbing gym), I think it would be super entertaining for me as a writer to research and write about. I also think that, while its not a huge topic, their some great research out their that can help support my claim that the rock climbing community needs to work on their eco footprint and be more mindful of how they treat their surroundings, but their are still ways to enjoy the joy that is rock climbing. 2) Environmental Effects of Grass Lawns As you can see i'm a fan of saving the environment. I think this topic has lots of research that could help support my position on how grass lawns are terrible for our earth. Considering the hundreds of gallons of water it uses, constant grooming that uses fossil fuels it requires, and many habitats it destroys when cut, i think there are plenty of points i could discuss. Over the summer i spent a great deal of my time cutting lawns for various family members, so i have a personal connection as to its issues.

1. Langston's main claim is the rhetoric is the key to being able to get what you want in any sort of communications or arguments.
2. The author chose this argument in order to inform her audience on how to successfully use rhetoric. 3. The tone is informational and is conveyed by the use of academic diction like “rhetoric”. This tone furthers her argument by making the audience feel as if the sleeker is well informed and knowledgeable in this area. 4. The audience is mostly teachers. Ted talks often attempt to reach teachers in order to give them ideas and inspire them for lessons. Specifically i think this video is aimed at the general academic association. 5. Langston organizes her point be first stating a general idea and then identifying terms with in that idea. She then addresses each word by explaining it and it’s uses then providing an example. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. |
