    There are seven common mistakes people make when preforming job-searches. The first mistake people make is to tell a potential employer you left your last position of employment due to personal differences with you and your boss. The next mistake someone makes is not bragging about what you can do and why this company needs you as an employee. Another common mistake is focusing on your personal needs rather than the needs of your potential employer. Yet another mistake job-searchers make is speaking too fast when leaving a voicemail. The next mistake is not making sure that you and your potential employer are compatible. Another important mistake is to make…

    Rhetorical Analysis: An Inconvenient Truth

    In 1906, Upton Sinclair published his book, “The Jungle,” which discussed the harsh treatment and exploitation experienced by immigrants in the United States. In his book, Sinclair was quoted in saying: “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.” While this held true in 1906, Sinclair’s wise words still apply to many aspects of today’s society. Although, in theory, mankind knows better than to act in a particular fashion, we fail to develop healthier habits, even though it could cost us the annihilation of life on our planet.…

    In Johann Hari’s article “You are being lied to about pirates” (published Monday January 5, 2009 by the Independent) he uncovers for his audience/readers the truth behind piracy and how it is reflected in the ways that the government “tries” to inform the public. The article shows that his audience is the people he recognizes to be the real villains in destroying the pirate “organization” as well as the uneducated readers on the topic that are looking to grasp a new understanding of pirates and where it all started. Johann Hari is trying to prove to us that there is definitely more than one side to these Somali pirates, but people just have to be willing to listen to see the truth behind their story.…

    How To Be Patient And Wait Rhetorical Analysis

    Lewis further argues that he will not wait and be patient like his forefathers before him and all the brothers that he stands with at the moment, he wants to be free, and he wants his people to be free now, a saying that does not go unheard by all the audience that is listening to him. Lewis illustrates to the audience once more, “We are tired. We are tired of being beaten by policemen. We are tired of seeing our people locked up in jail over and over again.”(para 7) In summary, Lewis is saying that he is worked up as well as all the African Americans of being treated as second-class citizens, that they are treated as animals, caged up so the world won’t see their malcontent. Lewis is again repeating his rhetorical technique of anaphora, in which he puts to good use as he repeats being tired time and time again of seeing people of color locked up and in jail for no particularly good reason, even if they didn’t commit a…

Many were accused and prosecuted for “un-American activities” throughout the states. The FBI had no grounds or evidence to stand on when accusing these people. The Salem witch trials in The Crucible were very similar to these situations. Witten by Arthur Miller The Crucible was Miller’s way of protesting and speaking out against these trials while trying not to draw any attention to him. He uses many rhetorical devices to help better his message as it if brought forth to the reader. Irony, repetition, imagery, and metaphors are examples of some of the devices Miller uses to capture the reader and keep the story on track with the protest of McCarthyism.…

    Sand between my toes and enjoying some sun while gathered around with a group of friends is what I call, a definition of a great time. The ad Tampax Pearl from Seventeen magazines sells the product through the use of rhetorical fallacies logos, ethos, and pathos. There are six fallacies, and throughout the magazine they are represented by the text, the women in the white bikini, and the beach: false cause, hasty generalization, non sequitur, and appeal to ignorance, false authority, and bandwagon. In the background are the sounds of waves clashing against one another, the sun beginning to lower, and the scent of a bonfire. The game of limbo used as an entertainment to influence laughter, and competition spread to one another.…
