My favorite Somali fairy tale at my childhood was about two blind men who used to argue the size and shape of an elephant. One day, the blind men came to a zoo to resolve their lasted argument. The zoo Veterinarian led them to a tamed small elephant. The first man reached the ear where the other man attained the tail of the elephant. All men explored the rest of the body of the elephant because each one thought he got an answer for his burning curiosity. The men happily got back to their place and each shared the other what he experienced about the size and shape of an elephant. The one who reached the ear said that elephant is something flat and large where the one reached the tail said that elephant is something thin and long.

Expertise is very important to have before making a claim or judgment. Having expertise makes a person more credible in their statements and their claims. Tim Nichols, author of the article, “How We Killed Expertise (and why we need it back)” claims that ordinary people believe that they know more than experts in every field and that people like that are the ones ruining the United States as a republic. Throughout his article, Nichols uses many rhetorical devices to express his feeling how people believe that they are expertise in almost every field. Nichols describes how the U.S. has excelled in various topics such as science, diplomacy, and arts, while still letting the ordinary people vote to decide and have a voice.

“There are no facts, only interpretations” – a quote from Frederick Nietzsche which suggests there may be problems arriving at accurate conclusions regardless of how perfect physical sight is. By analyzing the short stories of “The Elephant in the Village of the Blind,” as well as “20/20” by Linda Brewer, the reader may find these very problems presented throughout the entirety of both texts. Both stories present a character whose perception of physical sight is slightly skewed, contrasted with a character who seems to have an accurate interpretation of their situation. Throughout these texts, each character exhibits presuppositions about the other – presuppositions that are both right and wrong. In these stories, the characters wrongly assume
Different features of writing styles, when used effectively, can dramatically alter a piece of writing. They can turn a boring, monotonous article into something exhilarating to read. There are many different features of writing styles, but one of the most interesting is the use of cohesion and coherence.
