- Who is the audience? How do you know? The audience is more developed countries that can help these people receive food. I know this because this picture shows a young, starved child being the symbol for the whole country that is dying from starvation.
- What details make the picture meaningful? Explain. Several details like the buzzard, dead grass, and bones beside the child hint towards the idea of death. Also, the child is in the fetal position which shows that he is as vulnerable as a newborn baby.
- What is the EXPLICIT argument? This child is about to die.
- What is the IMPLICIT argument? More powerful countries need to help Africa because they are in desperate need of assistance.
- What subjects are brought forth by the picture, both concrete and abstract? The picture focuses on the dying child and the idea that Africa is struggling from starvation and needs help.
- Write an Enthymeme/Thesis (claim + because clause) for the argument found in the picture. We should stop world hunger because young people are dying from starvation.
- What connection/s can you make to a universal truth? People whether we know it or not are suffering and those with the power should intervene.
