A Rhetorical Analysis Of A Plane
Me: What does it mean to say that something has been designed?
Friend: I guess that if something has been designed it has a maker, and is usually intricate, like a watch.
Me: Awe, but how do you know it was designed, couldn’t it just have formed by chance?
Friend: Well each peace works together perfectly; if one part were missing then the whole, watch would be broken.
Me: Yes! Here is another example: Imagine you are flying over the ocean in an airplane, when you suddenly think about what would happen if one part of the plane were to fail. The plane would crash.

There’s still restaurants, off the I-5 corridor, serving spotted owl burgers and selling chainsaw art.…

    In South Central, Los Angeles, there is a food epidemic taking place among the population. For miles and miles, the only easily attainable food source is fast food; causing the overconsumption of un-nutritious, greasy, and fattening food. This is the problem brought to the public’s attention by speaker Ron Finley in his Ted Talks speech, “A Guerilla Gardener in South Central L.A.” Finley explains how everywhere he looks in his native South Central, all he sees are fast food chains and Dialysis clinics opened due to the lack of nutritious food. Finley views the lack of a healthy food source as a serious problem, and brings up his point; there are miles of vacant lots throughout Los Angeles, all of which could be used for the cultivation of healthy fruits and vegetables to better the urban community’s diet and health.…

He adopts a disoriented and poetic tone in order to appeal to similar feelings and experiences on a non-realistic scale in his young adult readers.…

Yet, all people would come to the agreement that it is one the most dangerous activities to participate in and ends millions of lives yearly.
