Why was King George VI's war speech such a daunting task for him? A. He had chosen to ignore Hitler's vicious acts when he could
nignag [31]

Answer:

nyksl Ambitious

The right answe is "A. He had a speech impediment, so he was worried he would be perceived as weak and unable to win a war."

Often the image that reaches us of great leaders does not show all the nature and personal characteristics behind the figure of leader. George VI possessed a characteristic that was remarkable during all his personal life and that was the main guide line of the film "The Discourse of the King". It is the stammering that persecuted the monarch from the tender age of 4 and that was reason of many difficulties for the King.

Upon his brother's abdication and the decision to take the throne, George VI was forced to face this problem and deal with it throughout his reign. With much training, persistence and courage, the monarch faced this difficulty, worked on his speeches, kept the morale of the population on the rise and became a symbol of British resilience.

In this order of ideas, this model establishes an archetype (model) in which the hero first receives a call to the unknown, then unleashes a fight from which he can emerge victorious and come back to his home. Finally, if the hero of the story manages to arrive safely, he can contribute with his experience to improve his society. This model can have many variations however the structure remains.
