Read a paragraph from a presentation.      

<em>Most of you probably are fans of typical American sports, such as baseball and basketball. However, I urge you to consider watching and participating in sports that are popular in other nations. Most of us are familiar with soccer. However, few of us realize that it is the most popular sport in the world. You’ve all experienced Super Bowl Sunday madness, but that is nothing compared to the international frenzy that sweeps across our planet every four years when soccer’s World Cup occurs. Watching the games of the World Cup can be a fun way to connect with other sports fans around the globe.</em>

Question: What is the purpose of this presentation?

Options:

  • To persuade.
  • To instruct.
  • To inform .
  • To entertain.

Answer: The correct answer is: <u>To persuade.</u>

Excerpt of Duty, Honor, Country
Scrat [10]

Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the B) MacArthur wants to impress his listeners; Long wants to make them think.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the question is asking specifically for the purposes of their respective speeches. It is important to take into account that MacArthur's excerpt is part of an acceptance speech, whereas Long's excerpt is part of a radio address that the politician gave during the Great Depression. MacArthur is praising and commending the military for their work, using, for that purpose, a very poetic and symbolic language ("you are the leaven which binds together...," or "the shadows are lengthening for me. The twilight is here," just to give an example). His is clearly a speech aimed at impressing his listeners. Long, on the contrary, presents a series of facts and he then poses two very straightforward questions, which seem to be directed to those who were running the country at that time. He responds to the first one firmly, but he does not give an answer to the second one, since it is a rethorical question. His speech, therefore, definitely makes you think and reflect upon his words.
