Maria Should Change Her Speech

Improved Essays

According to Beebe & Beebe (2015), “If you adapt to your audience by abandoning your own values and sense of truth, then you will become unethical speaker rather than an audience centered one” (p.84). before Maria even go out to speak, it is very important to do more research about the topic. Many audience may already know the truth about the subject. So, it is important not to lie to the audience. “Being audience-centered does not mean you should tell your listeners only what they want to hear or that you should fabricate information simply to please your audience or achieve your communication goals” (Beebe & Beebe, 2015,

    According to Erika Lindemann, "Rhetoric is a form of reasoning about probabilities, based on assumptions people share as members of a community” (Howard 2010). The use of rhetoric for analysing sentences means that one must consider the nature, the context and its intended audience.

The social context that I consider my own, is that of Sydney and Hong Kong transport due to my regular use of both railways. Alvarez writes from an intellectual and influential view, due to his research in experimental and behavioural economics, which establishes his ethos.…
