Question

In her recent speech on the potential economic consequences of Detroit's bankruptcy filing, Emily followed her introduction by describing the problems faced by several suburban areas near the city, moving west to east in order of the areas' positions around Detroit on a map, and finishing with a description of the consequences for the city itself. Based on the descriptions of speech organizing patterns in Chapter 12, Emily's speech seems to have been organized in a ____________ pattern.

Answer 1

Answer:

Space pattern

Explanation:

Space pattern is one of the patterns of organization of communication. The information is organized and structured according to the specific patterns. In spatial patterns of organization, the evidence and information are arranged in order of their physical space. The relation which exists among the information is highlighted. The mental picture of the information stated by the writer can be perceived by locating the physical parts of the information.
