In which Anderson mentions the impact technology has made in society and how Mann has managed distraction and the problems it has created in his life in which Mann states, “I’m not a physician or a psychiatrist, but I’ll tell you, I think a lot of it is some form of untreated ADHD or depression,” he says”. “Your mind is not getting the dopamine or the hugs that it needs to keep you focused on what you’re doing. And any time your work gets a little bit too hard or a little bit too boring, you allow it to catch on to something that’s more interesting to you” (511). The idea of having sources and research of different sorts allows Anderson to make his argument more credible and have a sense of understanding to the audience. This allows the audience to see the different point of views of the argument from research to experts whose opinion vary with their experience in the issue.

In How to Tame a Wild Tongue, Gloria Anzaldua uses rhetoric and personal anecdotes to convey and persuade her argument that Latin Americans are forced to relinquish their cultural heritage, and to conform to white society. The evidence she provides comes in a variety of platforms, both literal and rhetorical. Rhetorical, being through emotional, logical, and credible appeals through her text. Literal being explicitly stated, without any further analysis necessary. When she utilises the modes of appeals, they are subtle within the texts, which leads the reader to analyse as they read.
Blake English III Rhetoric and parallel structure Necking The popular phenomenon known as “necking” was very popular in the early 2000’s, but this has recently made a comeback for some at central. “Necking” consists of someone saying something that you believe is wrong or unintelligent of them to say, and you slapping their neck (lightly), and saying “that's a neck.” Variations include, “That's a neck, boy,” and, “Neck!”

Discourse Analysis and Rhetoric The two articles, The Mystery of the Bermuda Triangle and The Truth about Bermuda Triangle, present a strong analysis of viewpoints by strongly using rhetorical appeals as well as rhetoric devices. The articles are meant for general readership and as such a simple and non-technical language is utilized which make the articles easily understood by the general public. The stand point of the two articles is similar and is almost presented in the same manner with the authors debunking the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle by digging holes in the evidence fronted in support of the mystery. The strong use of rhetorical appeals makes the stand point of the articles convincing to the readers.
My Rhetorical Analysis Language is a part one’s identity and culture, which allows one to communicate with those of the same group, although when spoken to someone of another group, it can cause a language barrier or miscommunication in many different ways. In Gloria Anzaldua’s article, “How to Tame a Wild Tongue”, which was taken from her book Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza, she is trying to inform her readers that her language is what defines her. She began to mention how she was being criticized by both English and Spanish Speakers, although they both make up who she is as a person. Then, she gave convincing personal experiences about how it was to be a Chicana and their different types of languages. Moreover, despite the fact that her language was considered illegitimate, Anzaldua made it clear that she cannot get rid of it until the day she dies, or as she states (on page 26) “Wild tongues can’t be, they can only be cut out.”
In the rhetorical analysis essay, “Grade Inflation Gone Wild,” Stuart Rojstaczer addresses that United States higher education has gone downhill. He states in his essay that students are not being academically challenged anymore. The lack of perseverance from the students and faculty has made it easier to pass classes and maintain a good GPA. Stuart claims that, “Grades continue to go up regardless of the quality of education” (68). He believes that grade inflation is a huge issue in our society and that something should be done about it.
“One Art” Elizabeth Bishop uses of a villanelle, daily speech, and parentheses in order to convey resignation and regret in “One Art.” Her turn in tone shows that while everyone has lost something and can get used to it, losing a person is unlike anything else. A villanelle features five tercets and one quatrain, a shift that Bishop uses to manifest the difference in tones directly on the page in structure. Inside the first five tercets, nothing massively important is lost.
I believe that both triangles, but more specifically the rhetorical triangle, effectively illustrate “the balance of all three appeals that a writer should use for an effective argument” (“Reading: Rhetorical Triangle). From the diagrams, it seems that each individual rhetoric and communication component remains “as important as the others and too much of one is likely to produce an argument that readers with either find unconvincing or that will cause them to stop reading” (“Reading: Rhetorical Triangle). With the purpose of technical communication centered upon simplifying complex information, the use of both triangles in this form of communication seems more than necessary. For example, when creating any form of technical writing having an awareness of your “reason for the communication” and your identity as a “the creator of the communication” as well as to whom your writing is directed towards aids in communicating information in a more understandable manner for audience (“Reading: Communication Triangle). In addition, carefully finding a balance between all three
What makes a piece of writing effective? A piece of writing includes many things that make it effective, such as the style that appeals to the reader and rhetorical devices used in the writing that make it much more interesting. In this piece of writing titled “ How to tame a wild tongue “ includes many of these things. Even starting with the title it makes me curious as to what the piece will be about. There are two devices Anzaldua uses effectively in her essay which are anecdotes and parallel structure.
