    In the article “Consider the Lobster” by David Foster Wallace and “Let Them Eat Dog” by Jonathan Safran Foer, use different argumentative strategies in an effort to persuade the readers to not eat lobster or animals in general. Through the use of questioning tone, a minimal degree of irony and optimal sincerity, Wallace attempts to express to the reader the brutality of killing a lobster for one’s own self-gain.

The tone of an article reveals many different aspects of the message the writer wants to send to the readers, and also his style in…

    To my esteemed English teacher, By writing you this letter, I hope to demonstrate my growth throughout the year and my final mastery of the course’s content. During the revision of the synthesis, I mostly adjusted the shape of the piece; grammar and syntax needed to be fixed in many passages in order to provide a clearer explanation of my ideas. Nevertheless, the rhetorical analysis needed further labor on the content; precisely, the explanation of the author’s use of a certain rhetorical device to achieve his purpose needed to be more detailed. I wrote the both pieces keeping in mind that my audience would be extremely educated upon English language and composition.…

    “The Power of One” also demonstrated my improved method of writing my introduction and conclusion paragraphs. I was sure to begin my essay in an interesting way by opening with a rhetorical question. On top of that I introduced the idea of “the power of one” and continued this idea by concluding my essay with it as well. In addition, in “Shift to Reality” I feel my paragraph development was strong and thorough as I examined the depth at which William Golding brings his novel to a satisfying conclusion. On the other hand, I still feel I struggle with sentence structure and awkward wording as shown in my ALS Ice Bucket Challenge essay.…
