At the beginning
of the narration, there is a short description of the beautiful environment. In
order to let the audience have a better feeling, a lot of strong words are used
to describe the river, leaves, birds and so on. There strong words make these
things more vivid and we can even imagine the picturesque view.
The
first persuasion strategy that Al Gore uses is using humorous and sardonic
expression which gives us a deep impression and easy way to understanding. For
instance, in order to explain global warming, he uses a humorous cartoon to
make us understand global warming more easily. Meanwhile, he takes his
classmate as an example to interpret some important principle. This sardonic
way can make the principle not be boring and people can accept this way easily.
The
second strategy that he uses is persuading people by using comparison. In his
speech, he wants to tell people the importance of solving the global warming
problem. Therefore, he needs to show the damage of global warming. In order to
express the damage of global warming, he shows a lot of pictures of the same
glacier, taking in different periods. According to the comparison, people can
greatly feel the importance of solving this problem. If not, the whole planet
will be submerged by the water from the large amount of glaciers. Eventually,
the humans are the victims.
