Language analysis help...

[stonecold]

Yeah true.  I've got two hours though, so i'll need to write at least probably 1000 words of 'quality.'

Thing which annoys me about my teacher is, I saw her sample sheet for the piece we analysed earlier in the week, and she did the whole treasure hunt thing and found as many techniques as possible.  IMO, that is the lame way of doing analysis.  You should go through an article, cite examples and explain why their persuasive in the context of the issue, not just by finding techniques and then twisting the general persuasive reasoning behind it into your writing.

I hope that's not her criteria for marking...
Just to be safe, i'll try and throw in as much relevant metalanguage as possible.
