Hector was excited to give his speech about space tourism. He conducted a lot of research about space technology and current spa

cecraft manufacturers who were beginning to get into the space tourism business. He began his speech with the question; ""Did you know that a white dwarf star is the weight of the sun but has only the diameter of the earth. A cupful of white dwarf material weighs 22 tons!"" Then he went on to develop his credibility and preview his points about space tourism. Why was his audience confused by this attention getter?

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.
