Prompt 1 (examples of rhetoric)

When I came here, all the things seem to be different from my country. But I can still see many examples of rhetoric. At supermarket, some frozen food persuade me to buy because of the packaging. The nice picture of food like just cooked by a famous cook and looked very delicious. The box of the cereal also have rhetoric, there is a picture of family about parents  give their children eat this kind of cereal. The picture gives the idea that other family also eat it and buy it as soon as possible. And on the bottom of the box, there is a nutrition table to tell people how nutritious it is. The other thing I have never seen before is iclicker,I see the picture of that and the logo of it. It look like so easy and give me a feeling of convenience. The magazine of campus, bus in the campus, email of organization all contain the rhetoric.

Though the many things of US and China is different, but the rhetoric used is similar in each different area to persuade people.
