3. Find an advertisement that uses an appeal to fear. Is it a good argument?
The advertisement wants to prevent teenage girls from getting pregnancy at a young age. I think this is a good argument because the text below the three female figures is alarming. The text presents the statistics reading that currently in the United States 1 in 3 teenage girls will get pregnant by the age of 19 which is considered high. The picture shows 3 female figures and one of them is shaded in a light pink allowing the viewers to see the ratio. This advertisement shows appeal to fear because it wants to create awareness and increase an alarm of terror. This picture wanted to scare girls so they will either be abstinent or be careful an use protection. Imagining it on a bigger scale, if there were 300 teenage girls, out of that 100 of them are pregnant. Most of them will just graduate high school and are not ready to take care of herself let alone another human being.
