## Practice responses
Palmer's second argument is titled "Personalise the despair", indicating a shift to a more emotive tone. The author expands his debate by calling readers to "personalise the despair", and attempts to evoke feelings of sadness and concern with language like "raw reality". Despite the use of more emotive language in this argument, the author maintains a straight and seemingly objective tone when relaying the "decision of a father". This helps the piece to appear more objective since it is simply relaying events, however, a more opinionated analysis follows. The inclusion of a direct anecdote supports the author's opinions by exaggerating its significance, but also creates a personal connection between readers and the issue. The verbatim quotes enhance the impact of this empathy.
+### Wilcox cartoon
+The cartoon by Wilcox, titled _NSW Govt pill-testing unit_, is satirical and light-hearted yet also imparts a firm message. The artist conveys an interpretation of the current method of "post-mortem" pill testing, showing a dead body presumably killed by a lethal drug. This may evoke strong emotions in some people, particularly those who have a personal connection to the issue. The presence and facial expressions of the parents also accentuate this. However, there is also a humorous element which is intended to ridicule the current pill testing system, calling for a more comprehensive method. The absurdity of the situation is emphasised with the word "emergency" above the door, showing the context. This is furthered by the styling of the hospital bed and clothing of the doctor. Lastly, the sketchy style and the abundance of pastel colours in the cartoon clarifies its purpose, refining its role as a satirical yet stil communicative article.
