B. ESTABLISHING A ACTIVITY:
PURPOSE FOR THE GETTING FAMILIAR
LESSON
I will be asking 1 student of “What
is their standard of beauty?”
Compare:
• like
• as well as
• both
• likewise
• also
• resemble
• same as
• similar to
Example: Time, like money, is a
limited resource. You cannot buy
everything you want, likewise, you
do not have enough time to do
everything you want to do. Our
time is the same as our money. It is
limited. Also, time is a resource
when work needs to be done.
Contrast:
• unlike
• in contrast to
• on the other hand
• as opposed to
• different from
• however
• whereas
• on the contrary
• although
Example: Unlike time or money,
desire is an unlimited resource.
Think about it. In contrast to
money which can run out, your
desire for new experiences and
ideas will never end. Whereas
there is never enough time to do
everything you want, your desire
will always come up with
something new and exciting.
Persuasive Techniques
Three elements of persuasion:
▪ Ethos
▪ Pathos
▪ Logos
ETHOS
• Ethos is an appeal to the
writer’s credibility, ethics,
morals and characters.
• When you evaluate an
appeal to ethos, you
examine how successfully
the writer or speaker
appeals to the audience’s
sense of ethical behavior.
The writer or speaker
presents himself or herself
to the audience as credible,
trustworthy, honest and
ethical.
• Example: More than one
hundred peer-reviewed
studies have been
conducted over the past
decade, and none of them
suggests that this is an
effective treatment for hair
loss.
PATHOS
• Pathos is an appeal to the
emotions of the audience.
• While pathos is making an
appeal to emotions.
Making people feel that
they have a connection
with the topic at hand
evokes certain emotions,
beliefs and values.
• Example: There's no price
that can replace peace of
mind. Our advanced
security systems will
protect the well-being of
your family so that you can
sleep soundly at night.
LOGOS
• Logos is an appeal to logic
and reason.
• When you evaluate an
appeal to logos, you
consider an argument
based on facts, evidence
and reason. Using logos
means appealing to the
readers’ sense of what is
logical.
• Example: As a doctor, I am
qualified to tell you that
this course of treatment
will likely generate the best
results considering all the
symptoms, conditions and
options.
