Each paragraph should be five to seven sentences long. It does not matter how long they are, just as long as they aren't micro-sentences.
first, you will need to get your audience's attention. your first sentence will be a sort of "Listen up! I'm about to blow your mind!" it could be a startling statement, a rhetorical question, quotation, a short funny story, or a short dramatic story. Ask yourself this: why should your audience listen? is it relevant to them? How? why should they believe what you say?
the second paragraph should express the need for change. now that you have your audience's attention, you will need to clearly show them what the problem is and the extent of it. in order to do this, you can use examples to illustrate how it impacts them, such as their happiness, future, health, family, neighborhood, Etc. you can use statistics, facts, figures, graphs, and diagrams. just remember to cite your sources and remember to check for credibility! give a good testimony, the more authoritative the better! the goal at the end of this paragraph is to have your audience wanting to hear your solution. they should agree that there's a problem.
the third paragraph should outline your answer or solution and show the audience how it will work. to do this, you need to outline your solution clearly, demonstrate how it meets the problem, and use examples to show how effective it is. you should support it with facts, graphs, testimonies, and you know the drill. :) the outcome of this paragraph is to get the audience to save themselves, "yes. This is possible, practical and sensible."
the end of your speech should give the audience satisfaction.
Good luck! I'm glad to help and answer any questions you may have about this assignment.
Miss Maudie refers to Scout as "morbid" in response to Scout's persistent line of questioning about Boo Radley. After Scout starts to feel ostracized by Dill and Jem--who have increasingly pushed her aside and dismissed her for being a girl--Scout spends more and more time with Miss Maudie.
C. a well-told story should have no need for subsequent discussion
Explanation:
When a person tells a story in a presentation, it is false that a well-told story should not have need for further discussions.
No matter how good a story is or how well it is explained, there should always be room for further discussion, either in form of asking questions for clarity or discussing some points in the story.
