I remember when I was trying to persuade a friend to start exercising. I started with this question: “Don’t you know all the benefits of exercising? Without letting him answer I told him first all the benefits exercising was bringing myself in order to lose weight. I explained him that, first, exercising was good to speed his metabolism, when people do not exercise their metabolism slows down making them gain fat. Second, that exercising is good for his emotions, I told him that when I started exercising my emotions started going up and I was happy all the time. Third, before I started exercising, I felt weaknesses in all my articulations; it was even hard for me to go upstairs. Then, I started exercising and my muscles started to strengthen and I felt that I had a better posture towards life, I felt stronger than my friends, and that really counts. Fourth, and it should have been the first one, exercising makes you look stronger in front of women and that attracts them better. Finally, exercising makes you eat a lot better, now in my breakfast I eat several types of fish, among them trout, which is a very nutritious and delicious fish.

I used two rhetorical devices to try to convince my friend:

1.Hypophora: the trick of posing a question and then immediately supply the answer, example, “Don’t you know all the benefits of exercising? Without letting him answer I told him first all the benefits exercising was bringing myself in order to lose weight.”

2.Eutrepismus: the act of stating points in the form of a numbered list, example, “I explained him that, first, exercising was good to speed his metabolism, when people do not exercise their metabolism slows down making them gain fat. Second, that exercising is good for his emotions, I told him that when I started exercising…”
