Read “Asian Men Can Jump,” by Gish Jen (2012, New York Times)

Read the passage carefully, then complete the following tasks:
Identify a claim made by Jen and explain the reasoning underlying this claim.
List at least two pieces of supporting evidence from the passage and briefly explain how they support the claim you have identified
Answer:
Jen claims that her brother, Bob, could be "the fittest 58-year-old on the planet." Of course, this is not a claim to be taken literally. It means that his health and physical state is incredibly good for his age.
Explanation:

<span>The structural element that is used in the excerpt by Anaya but not in the excerpt by Nye is D.logos. Logos is a rhetorical tool that is usually applied as appeal to logic and reason. The first excerpt sets its mood by representing events as they are, and there is a clear point of 'cause and effect': the information given by author is supported with reason. The second excerpt is a nice example of allusion irony, so it can be defined as literary anecdote.</span>
The excerpt is being told by the narrator if thats what your asking<span />
