wolverine [178]3 years ago
4 0
When Obama says " Last year, we relied less on foreign oil, than in any of the past sixteen years" he is using persuasion. He is persuading the listener by appealing to their sense of being independent from having to get oil from some of the foreign countries that we were at war with. When he states "A strategy that's cleaner" he is appeasing the people who are environmentalists and who want to do what they can for the planet. He also manages to intrigue the common working man by stating that the country will be "full of new jobs."

Write four or five sentences detailing how you will practice active listening and use effective responses the next time you have
yanalaym [24]

Personally, I think you need to answer this question yourself because if you do end up talking to your parent/teacher, then it wouldn't be exactly like the way I describe how I do it, but anyways:

I can lock eyes with them to make sure they know I'm listening and not disregarding what they say, I could also keep still to be able to hear what they are saying and not be distracted by other things around me.

After I listen to what they say, I'll answer what they are asking based on what I know or what they have asked. If it's something that I have to answer, then either answer right away if you know it, or let them know that you need a second to reply to their question.
