Journal 49: Reflection on Your Essay

        My essay is talking about that it is better for people to study abroad. I provide three reasons to support my idea. I use logical, emotional, and ethical appeals to persuade my audience. In the first paragraph, I make a short description of my general idea of why studying abroad is good for us, and what benefits we can get from it. In second paragraph, I provide details by using logical appeal. There are some facts and research which can make audience feel more convincible and tend to agree my idea. In addition, I use emotion appeal here that I choose some strong words in order to create strong feelings to the audience, such as the example I give in my essay. To the third paragraph, I use ethical appeal to try to persuade my audience. I mention about the importance about being a global citizen and how it would affect people in this generation in the future. I hope that these appeals are able to make audience to agree with my idea. However, there are also some disadvantages about studying abroad. I didn’t really discuss about it in my essay. I am not sure that whether it is better to mention it or not.
