Answer:

Because it wasn't relevant to the topic.

Explanation:

<u>An attention getter, as the name suggests, has the purpose of engaging one's audience at the beginning of the speech.</u> There are several types of attention getters. Some people choose to make a light a joke, others ask a question to make their audience members reflect on the subject or feel curious as to what the answer will be.<u> No matter which type, the attention getter must always be relevant to the topic.</u> The information Hector offered is nothing but trivia; it does not have any importance when it comes to space tourism, especially if thrown at the audience right from the start, without contextualization.

scZoUnD [109]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you did not attach options for this question, we can comment on the following.

The two events which ended the time of primitive society started the time of animal husbandry society were the end of humans being nomads and the beginning of the Neolithic Revolution.

When humans established between the Rivers Tigris and Euphrates, in the Middle East, they formed the first and oldest civilization on planet Earth: the Sumerians.

There, they developed new and advanced agriculture techniques and could prosper learning the times of the flooding of the rivers. That flooding left a very fertile soil to grow crops. That is why they could establish powerful city-states such as Lagash, Ur, Kish, Nippur, Uruk, or Eridu.

The Neolithic Revolution is also known as the Agriculture Revolution. That is when Sumerians started to plant seeds and domesticate animals.
