If you want to make your argument effective do a combination of all four; however, if you must pick one use specific details to refute the opposite side’s views.

Let's look at the answer choices. First, we have "Compare the opposite side's views to something unpleasant" which won't work simply because it comes off as uneducated and childish, like there isn't a valid reason so you are just name-calling. Second, "Include only general details the audience will understand" isn't a good option because you can—and should—explain specific details so that they can be clearly supported. The third option, "Use specific details to refute the opposite side's views" goes along with what I previously said about detailed reason being more effective; saying something is "bad" is much less appealing than saying a specific factor of it is flawed for blankety-blank reason. Being able to rebuttal against the opposing point of view with specific evidence is just as essential to your argument as the reasons you have to support your own views. The fourth option, "Appeal strongly to the emotions of your audience" is a good technique, but alone it can lead the audience to assume that you don't have any real evidence to support your argument, rendering the attention gathered fro emotional appeal rather useless. Considering this, the third option is definitely the best answer.

Answer: Use specific details to refute the opposite side's views.

STALIN [3.7K]

I was convicted of a crime and I was taken into a trial with a judge, jury and I was trying to justify the actions I partook in. I claimed that two witnesses at the event had committed perjury and I proposed a fair alibi. My road to justice had been blocked by the judicial decision to mark me as guilty. Their jurisdiction offended me, as they clearly had some racial bias that I was a victim to, I strongly believe that my trial was not just.

Lines 307-334: how do the proposals king lists effect his persuasiveness?

Gemiola [76]

Hello. You did not inform the speech to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

If King was trying to be persuasive, lines 307 - 334 can only affect persuasiveness by reinforcing the argument King is making. This can be done through a clear and objective diction that reinforces the importance of King's words. In addition, these lines can create a logical, ethical or emotional structure for the speeches, proposing a greater connection between king and the public.
