Claim 1 engages the audience on a personal level by sharing a personal experience and illustrating the benefits of taking walks after lunch. This anecdotal approach creates an emotional connection and makes the audience relate to the speaker's love for their routine. In contrast, Claim 2 relies more on factual statements and research findings to advocate for outdoor time, which may not resonate as strongly on an emotional level. Thus, Claim 1's tone and personal narrative capture the audience's attention in a way that the more formal, research-focused style of Claim 2 does not.
Claim 1: During summer vacation, I take a walk every day after lunch. The air is refreshing and helps me prepare for the rest of the day. I also love taking a few minutes to break up the day. I can’t imagine going without my lunchtime walk! During the school year, students should be able to take a walk outside after lunch every day.
Claim 2: Time outside promotes physical health and encourages social interaction and collaboration among students. In addition to anchoring students to the real world, research has shown that time outside leads to greater productivity and better learning outcomes. For these reasons, students should have time outside during every school day.
