1.The correct answer here is a summary of a textbook reading assessment. The point of the persuasive writing is to convince your readers. Different kinds of persuasive writing exist but their main point is to either to move people to action like in different kinds of political pamphlets like the famous “Common Sense” by Thomas Paine or to convince your readers that your opinion is valid, many kinds of reviews are done with this purpose. Many different techniques exist that are used in writing persuasive writing like the logical conclusion, use of statistics and scientific evidence.

2. The correct answer here is opinion. The video games get a lot of negative press and that is mainly because it is a field that is often misunderstood if it is even understood by many at all. Even though there are numerous studies that show that aggression and violence are not correlated with video games many still insists on this. The statement here is also only an opinion because there is no evidence provided in order to validate this claim. Many games created for younger audiences and even among those that are not there are many that are not violent at all like the hit game “Journey” or even the old school “Tetris”.

3.The correct answer here is “Playing football gives you concussions”. The hasty generalization is a logical fallacy that people commit when drawing general conclusions from a small amount of data. Here person makes a conclusion based on a small sample and not an appropriate statistic. In this statement, the action of “playing football” according to the speaker always results in a concussion which is simply not true. There are cases and there can even be a lot of them but not all games lead to a concussion of every player.
