Pathos

Example: Eating chocolate can kill dogs.

Getting people to feel happy, sad, afraid, or angry can help your argument.

Page 5: Opening-9/5

Logos

Example: A Snickers bar has 280 calories and 30 grams of sugar. That’s not very healthy.

Facts, numbers, and information can be very convincing.

Page 6: Opening-9/5

Examples of Pathos/Ethos (RED/GREEN) Facts - can be proven. Expert opinions or quotations Definitions - statement of meaning of word or phrase Statistics - offer scientific support Examples - powerful illustrations Anecdote - incident, often based on writer's personal

experiences Emotional appeals - to provide support for reasons,

carefully chosen loaded words, carrying positive or negative connotations, sway readers' emotions

Present opposition - and give reasons and evidence to prove the opposition wrong

Conclude with call to action - urge the reader to do something

Page 7: Opening-9/5

Ethos

Example: Believe me! I’ve been there before. I’m just like you.

If people believe and trust in you, you’re more likely to persuade them.

Dream Deferredby Langston Hughes

What happens to a dream deferred?Does it dry upLike a raisin in the sun?Or fester like a sore--And then run?Does it stink like rotten meat?Or crust and sugar over--like a syrupy sweet?Maybe it just sagslike a heavy load.Or does it explode?
