  10. Homework: Read Chapter 1 The focus of this chapter is a speech given by an old and respected animal. In this speech, he tries to persuade the animals to rebel. Persuasion is an important and useful skill to have. Here are some common persuasive techniques in English. You should understand these so you can analyze the speech. Rule of Three Exaggeration AlliterationRepetition Rhetorical Questions Emotive Language

  11. Persuasive Language Based on the idea that people remember things better when there are three. US Declaration of Independence“life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” Julius Cesar“Friends, Romans, countrymen – lend me your ears” BarackObama “we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.“

  12. Persuasive Language exaggeration Exaggeration is used to increase the importance or urgency of an issue. This creates an emotional response from the reader/listener. “If global warming continues, our world will be destroyed!”

  13. Persuasive Language alliteration Alliteration is the repetition of sounds at the beginning of words. It is persuasive because it is draws attention and creates emphasis.Alliteration is often combined with the Rule of Three To argue like that makes those people cruel, calculating and corrupt! Health, happiness and hope for the New Year!

  14. Persuasive Language repetition repetition repetition repetition Repeating a word several times helps listeners/readers remember the message better. We will all suffer for years to come unless we stop this government, stop them in the workplace, stop them in the polls, and stop them on election day.

  15. Persuasive Language Rhetorical questions? X A rhetorical question is one in which the answer is so obvious it is not required. The idea here is not to receive an answer, merely to reinforce a point. How would you feel if we ran out of energy today? Do you want the people in government to push you around? Wouldn’t you like to be free from suffering?

  16. Persuasive Language Emot!ve Language When words are used to make the reader/listener feel an emption like anger, sadness, or happiness. The animals are helpless against the oil spills and the US is destroying their habitats.

  17. Reading Strategy You don’t need to understand 100% of the words on a page. Using a dictionary for every word would take to long. You can skip some words and still understand. The RULE “MR. JONES, of the Manor Farm, had locked the hen-houses for the night, but was too drunk to remember to shut the popholes. With the ring of light from his lantern dancing from side to side, he lurched across the yard, kicked off his boots at the back door, drew himself a last glass of beer from the barrel in the cullery, and made his way up to bed, where Mrs. Jones was already snoring.”
