Explain the three goals of persuasive speaking. Which goal is the hardest to achieve and why?.
Lelu [443]

Answer:

In the explanation...

Explanation:

The three goals of persuasive speaking include:

1. Getting the reader to relate to your views somehow

2. Diminishing the opposing view's points and making it clear that your point is even more valid.

3. Lastly, getting the reader on your side.

The hardest goal to achieve is #2 because depending on whether or not the opposing view is directly targeting you it can be hard to try to avoid their evidence if you can't even think of evidence that would help defend your views.
