Journal 7

A key element in a paper is the audience is speaks to. Audience has a heavy influence in the writing style used. If I were writing a paper that I knew was going to be used for say a 5th grader to read, I would obviously want to keep my diction simple so that they are able to understand the paper. Now if I were writing for someone with a high level of education I would be able to use a different vocabulary that was more intense then for a 5th grader. A writer should write the paper with the audience in mind. By doing this they can get a better response from the reader.
