In Peter Singer’s essay, “What Should a Billionaire Give?”, Singer coveys a persuasive tone to convince his audience that the money donated to charities should be donated to foreign countries living in poverty today. People from foreign countries aren’t getting their necessities in order to survive which upsets Singer. Peter Singer’s also creates an informative tone to educate his reader on how much billionaires should donate to other countries and how millions of people are living in poverty today. Structure
In Malcolm Gladwell’s essay, ”What the Dog Saw”, Gladwell acts as the narrator. First, he gives his audience an example about Caesar’s (main character) past experiences which clearly fall back to Caesar’s occupation. Gladwell’s novel is focused on Caesar.

For example, “I was thrilled to be the boss outdoors.” It seems simple, although it is plain. I understand why writers us syntax in their writing. It’s a different, creative way to put sentence together. Even if the sentence structure seems odd or out of order, the audience won’t get easily bored and will want to continue reading the paper.
