Hey there!

A speaker might use humor in a persuasive speech to make himself more likable and appeal to the audience and create a connection. And to also keep the audience engaged in what he/she is saying

I think a speaker would use humor in this because personally, I think a long, boring speech is not fun. So why not try to lighten things up a bit by adding some comedy into it. :)
Hope this helps!
P.S You can give brainliest to the other person, I don't mind :)

This is created when similar elements on an outline are written using similar constructions.
bija089 [108]

Answer: tentative outline

Explanation:

The tentative outline is created when identical elements on an outline are written through the use of similar constructions. It's like a rough outline.

Tentative outlines are simply referred to as the simple tools which enables one to list down all the things that the person will like to include in a written document.

Which of the following claims does Eric Deggans develop in the text ?
Reika [66]

Assuming the text is "Learning How to Code-Switch: Humbling, but Necessary" (2013) and you had to choose between the following claims:

<em>A. Code-switching keeps people from expressing themselves by promoting one correct style of communication.</em>

<em>B. It is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and celebrate all aspects of their identity.</em>

<em>C. The United States consists of great cultural variety and no one should be discriminated against for speaking a certain way.</em>

<em>D. Many successful people have used code-switching, but it is unfair to expect minorities to have multiple communication styles.</em>

Deggans' thesis is that it is important to recognize that code-switching can help a person succeed and  celebrate all aspects of their identity (B).

<u>Code-switching</u> means alternating between languages or communication styles according to the context (cultural, professional, casual, etc.).

Deggans' testimony shows that being able to code-switch is what has helped him to integrate social groups which were different from the poor black neighborhood he came from, while maintaining his identity.

This answer is supported by such such quotes as:

  • "expertly navigating another culture wasn’t a  rejection of where I’d come from or a signal that I was any less authentically black;"
  • "it’s a reminder to be fully who you are at all times, while making sure you’re understood well enough to  be valued, respected and considered."
