  19. The first and most important step in making a persuasive argument is to think about your audience.

  20. In this case, your audience is your parents.

  21. An argument that might work on your friends might not convince your parents.

  22. You have to look at this from their point of view.

  23. Now, make a list of arguments you can use to convince your parents that you need your own car.

  24. Then, rank those arguments from most effective to least effective.

  25. Finally, using the terms ethos, logos and pathos, label each argument. (Some arguments may be a combination.)

  26. Let’s look at a few examples.

  27. Pathos A car of my own would be AWESOME!

  28. Ethos You can trust me. I always remember to feed the dog.

  29. Logos You will have more time, since I can drive myself to school.

  30. Pathos Everybody else has one.

  31. As you analyze your arguments ask yourself some questions.

  32. Which type or mode of argument is the most effective?

  33. Is there any mode of argument that you could do without?

  34. Is there any mode of argument that you absolutely must have?

  35. There is a lot more that you can learn about rhetoric. In fact, rhetoric is one of the first classes most people take in college.

  36. Finally, how might learning more about ethos, pathos, and logos help you in the future?

  37. Good luck and be safe!
