Reflection!
This past paper has been a great way to learn how to analyze things. I am not the best at such thing, nor have i ever cared to be. So this paper really helped me learn these valuable skills. I think that identifying your audience is very important and so is recognizing tools the author uses. This way to can analyze the authors writing effectively enough that the audience will also understand what your saying and believe you. Analyzing can be long and tedious, but when done write you can truly understand where the author is coming from and what he or she is saying. These skills can be applied to life to. When people are talking to you, you can analize what they are saying and see if they are sarcastic or sincere.

I also think that it is very important to be sure you remember who your audience is and appeal to them. I thought it was very helpful to analyze how the authors appealed to the audience.
This paper definately helped me realize how to analyze things as well. Recognizing the rhetorical situation really helped me when writing my paper.
I'm also not the best at anaylizing things and I usually trust the authors opinion without thinking twice about it. This paper really helped me see how writers use tools to persuade their readers.
