Emotional Appeal in Years of Dust

Question 1 • Language Arts 8 - ELA3008 IC

How does President Roosevelt’s speech persuade Americans to support the laws in helping people during the Great Depression?

Answer
A
Roosevelt wants listeners to feel that the nation should do more to take care of people who need help.
B
Roosevelt wants listeners to think badly about people who are already wealthy.
C
Roosevelt’s role as president makes all Americans feel as though they have to agree with what he says.

Explanation

Roosevelt persuades listeners by emphasizing the nation’s responsibility to help people suffering during the Great Depression. This encourages Americans to support laws that provide aid and care for those in need. The speech is not mainly meant to make people resent the wealthy or to force agreement simply because Roosevelt is president.
