[English] Herald Sun editorial + Rob Oakeshott opinion language analysis

<< < (2/2)

m@tty:
What I did was structure my analysis on the main points that the writer was making chronologically and put 2-4 separate persuasive element in there. Bear in mind that I did only get an 8 for this section on the exam.. so other ways could be more effective. But that's what I did.

Just a quick question regarding the structure of the language analysis
Would it be sufficient just to list one persuasive technique and talk about in depth for each body paragraph. And how many body paragraphs should I write?

--- End quote ---

This would be sufficient. But don't look through the article for persuasive techniques that you can write a paragraph about. Just think about what you think you'd like to write about then try to put it into paragraphs. They can vary in length, and they can mention many persuasive techniques, or contain no metalanguage. However, if you feel like you need a strict structure, then one paragraph per technique can definitely work. (I'm sorry if that sounded contradictory. To be honest, I didn't write many analyses on just the one article.)
