Writing Homework Help

Part1:

For this exercise, you are going to evaluate some very typical advertising language. In each sentence, identify the intentional imprecision in the sentence and underline or highlight it. Here’s an example from the handout:

1. These DKNY blouses have the feel of silk.

Here’s why I underlined “the feel of”: That gives the illusion that we are talking about silk, an expensive fabric, when the 1reality is that the blouses could be made of anything, including polyester. But the advertiser has not lied.

Please copy and paste the text below into a Word document so that you can underline or highlight the parts of each sentence that are “intentionally imprecise” and then upload your document here.
