“Branded World: The Success of the Nike Logo”, by Michael Levine, is an extremely effective argument due to his effective usage of quotes, statistics, and rhetorical questions. In utilizing these tactics, the author creates a powerful argument and convinces his audience to support his take on the issue. However, Levine’s argument could have been extensively enhanced if he had used a suitable analytical graph to support his statistic and prove his point. “Branded World” is an effective argument…

In this assignment I will discuss the theological construction of Ecclesiastes 3 with focus on verses 1 to 15 which is on the topic of time. I have not included verse 16 to 22 here as from verse 16 onward Qohelet introduces his new topic on judgement in a typical manner by using “I saw something” signaling another reflection.

The play argues that people must be willing to go through difficulty by mocking the little monk’s family and anyone who is similar, using the oyster metaphor as a representation of sacrifice, and by using rhetorical questions to suggest that venturing into new, but risky, territories are necessary for discoveries. Though religion is portrayed to be valuable, the people who wouldn’t be able to handle that the Earth orbits the sun are mocked and are accused to…

passage we see three characters speak, each asking a question, first Gremio asks Petruchio if he will court Katherine- referring to her as a Wildcat, to which Petruchio asks “Will I live?” , and then Grumio echoes Gremio’s question “Will he woo her?” and answers it himself “Aye, or I’ll hang her.” The quick succession of questions adds to the dramatic effect of the play as the use of inflection allows for a change in pitch- low to high, for each question, thus creating a rhythm that is more…

breaking down the text and understanding how Levitin wrote the book, a reader can understand that his reasoning is to really educate his audience about music’s fundamental changes on the human mind. He uses methods such as exemplification and rhetorical questions to prove this point. Throughout the novel, he talks about his own life and experiences because he is a very well accredited individual in the field of music. He talks about his life at a young as he grows older and older, this…

his argument by asking a series of questions (Comfort, 2011). The first regarding whether they would, given the chance, kill Hitler.

Though the consensus was still yes, some people answered with much more hesitation. Comfort asks these questions to appeal to the emotion of his…
