5. Robert Frost – The Road Not Taken Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. 1) What is the central idea of this poem? 2) What is the tone of the poem? 3) Push It!!!

19. A rhetorical device uses words in a certain way to convey meaning or to persuade. It can also be a technique to evoke interest and emotion on the part of the reader or audience. rhetorical Rhetorical Appeals: the three main avenues by which people are persuaded: Logos: Strategy of reason, logic, or facts. Any type of argument which appeals to someone’s rational side is appealing to logos. Ethos: Strategy of credibility, authority, or character. Appeals to ethos demonstrate the author’s trustworthiness, expertise and honesty and attempt to put the author in a more positive light to the audience. Pathos: Strategy of emotions and affect (the way the piece makes us feel). Pathos appeals to an audience’s sense of anger, sorrow, pity, or excitement. Examples of other rhetorical devices:  Allusion - a reference to an event, literary work or person - I can’t do that because I am not Superman.  Amplification - repeats a word or expression for emphasis - Love, real love, takes time.  Analogy - compares two different things that have some similar characteristics - He is flaky as a snowstorm.  Anaphora - repeats a word or phrase in successive phrases - "If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh?” (Merchant of Venice, Shakespeare)  Assonance -the repetition of identical or similar vowel sounds (not always at the beginning of words) Apples are awesome, Go and mow the lawn.  Cause/Effect: setting up an argument in which the narrator provides a cause (a reason why something happens) and then the subsequent effect(s) (what happens as a result).  Comparison & contrast-mode of discourse where two or more things are compared, contrasted, or both  Connotation-the underlying, implied meaning of a word or phrase  Counter-argument/rebuttal/refutation- an argument technique where opposing arguments are anticipated and negated  Denotation -the dictionary definition of a word  Diction -word choice an author uses to persuade or convey tone, purpose, or effect  Deductive reasoning -movement from the general to the specific  Either/or - a choice or division limited between two options- We found ourselves in an either-or situation.  Enumeration - makes a point with details - Renovation included a spa, tennis court, pool and lounge.  Inductive reasoning -movement from the specific to the general  Inference- a conclusion or proposition arrived at by considering facts, observations, or data  Juxtaposition-location of one thing adjacent to another to create an effect or reveal an attitude  Knowledge of audience: structuring an argument in ways that appeal to a particular specific audience  Paradox -statement that seems contradictory but may probably be true  Parallel structure/Parallelism - uses words or phrases with a similar structure - I went to the store, parked the car, and bought a pizza.  Periodic sentence-a long sentence in which the main clause is not completed until the end-In spite of heavy snow and cold temperatures, the game continued.  Point of view- the angle of considering things, which shows the opinion or feelings of the individual  Rhetorical question-a question that is asked simply for the sake of stylistic effect  Syntax -the way words are put together to form phrases, clauses, and sentences  Understatement - makes an idea less important that it really is - The hurricane disrupted traffic. Figurative Language: levels of meaning are also expressed through figures of speech  Alliteration - the repetition of initial consonant sounds - baby buggy bumpers  Hyperbole - an exaggeration - I have done this a thousand times.  Metaphor - compares two things by stating one is the other - The eyes are the windows of the soul.  Onomatopoeia - words that imitate the sound they describe - plunk, whiz, pop  Oxymoron - a two word paradox; combining two apparently contradictory elements - near miss, seriously funny  Personification- treating an abstraction or nonhuman object as if it were a person- The leaves danced in the wind.  Pun- sharply contrasting meanings using words with the same sound- Which witch is which?  Simile - a direct, explicit comparison of one thing to another using like, as, or than- He smokes like a chimney; He is as faster than a cheetah Rhetorical Devices:
