I read Edwin’s response to the article. He does a good job summarizing what the author’s main points are and how she uses ethos, logos, and pathos to get that message across to the audience. The author uses ethos to say that standardized testing does not accurately portray ones intelligence. She also uses pathos while explaining her mother’s story and sharing how she has a tumor. Amy Tan uses all three of these devices vividly to help get her message across.
