Ethos: I will make strong main and sub
points and will back those points up with well thought out examples.
My weak points will probably be in my career section of the speech
because it will be difficult to come up with examples to back up
points. I can overcome this by spending more time on this section of
the speech and also not finishing or opening with the career section.
My body language is also troublesome because I have a tenancy to just
stand and not move when I give speeches. I can overcome this by
practicing and by reminding my self to move around a little and not
to just stand there and just talk.
Pathos: My pathos will be the stories I
tell to back up my points I made for Career, family, and
entertainment. The emotional responses that are appropriate would be
like laughter or humor. But also it would be great to make a
connection with the audience by telling stories people can relate to.
I should avoid telling stories that cause sadness or anger. I can
make a faster emotional connection by simply being a better story
teller. It is easier to make an emotional connection with an audience
if the audience is really listening and in to what you are saying.
Logos:
- IntroductionThesis: It is difficult to breakdown someones life into just three categories. However, family, career, and entertainment are a pretty good breakdown. All three of these things are major parts of most peoples lives and all three are connected and make up who we are. There are common themes and characteristics that are true for all parts of life and that is honesty and hard work.
Focus on stories that challenge
- BodyA. Family- My family and I are close there are six of us. I am going to talk about our family car ride to new York my junior year and talk about how it made us closer even though we fought quite a bit and also family can be entertainment in itself. My family is where I first learned to be honest and hard working.B. Career- My career right now is being a student. Being a student is what takes up the most time in my life. It is building me up for my career which right now I hope is a doctor. To be a good student I need to be honest and hardworking.C. Entertainment- My main source of entertainment is hanging out with my friends. My friends are very important to me and because I live away from my family I see my friends the most. Part of being a good friend is being honest to them and working hard at keeping up your relationship with them.
- ConclusionA. family entertainment and friends may are three major different parts of my life and may seem different but they do connect. This is because in all three parts it is important to be honest and hardworking.
