Fact and Opinion Persuasive Devices Word Endings Grammar: Compound & Complex Sentences Spelling: Difficult Spellings Graph Ecosystems

94 Fact and Opinion A statement that can be proved true or false is called a statement of fact. A statement that tells a person’s thought, feelings, or ideas is called a statement of opinion. Statements of opinion cannot be proved true or false.

95 Fact and Opinion Statements of opinion may be either valid or faulty. Valid statements of opinion are supported by facts or are stated by experts. Faulty statements of opinion are not supported by facts—they are supported only by personal opinions or by the opinions of people who are not experts.

96 Fact and Opinion You do not need to know whether or not a statement of fact is true. You just need to recognize that a fact can be proven true or false by looking up the information, asking an expert, or checking it out first hand. An opinion, on the other hand, may be well supported by facts, but it is not itself a fact.

97 Persuasive Devices When a writer’s purpose is to persuade, he or she presents evidence to convince readers to think or do something. Some types of evidence, such as facts and expert opinions, are more valid than others.

98 Persuasive Devices Readers should be wary of the following persuasive devices: Bandwagon is an attempt to persuade people to think, do, or buy something because a large number of people do.

99 Persuasive Devices Loaded words have strong connotations and appeal to readers’ emotions. Testimonial is an endorsement by a well-known person.

100 Word Endings Endings such as –ed or –s are clues to an unfamiliar word’s part of speech. The ending –ed is added to a verb to make it past tense, and the ending –s may indicate a present tense, singular verb or a plural noun. Identify the part of speech of each underlined word in the chart.
