Answer:

D. That he wants to give her comfort and warmth is the correct answer.

Explanation:

I Am Offering This Poem is a poem written by Chicano poet Jimmy Santiago Baca. This is a poem that shows love from the speaker to his beloved one by offering everything he has -the poem.

A metaphor is rhetorical device that compares two things (in an implicit way); in this case, the speaker mentions that he wants his beloved one to be comfortable and give her warmth, the speaker literally mentions that he wants to <em>warm</em> her belly, so D is the correct answer.

Choose the sentence below that best represents a speeches theme.
lakkis [162]

To complete your question, the answer choice is as follows

a. Our Country has worked hard to provide equal rights for people.

b. Rosa Parks was a great American civil rights leader.

c. Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice.

d Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus for a white woman.

The sentence that best represents a speech’s theme is "Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice". This implies the correct answer is C.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

A speeches theme should be general and be very concise enough to describe the details of a speech without giving the full details of the content of the speech. The speech theme should be centered mainly on the core values and the topics to be discussed.

A speeches theme must also be the subject that should be developed in a speech and from the options provided only “Freedom and equality are worth great sacrifice” serves this particular purpose.

Also, carefully analyzing other answer choices, you will see they are not issues that should be developed instead they are parts of the speech that will support the argument on the subject.  

However, the introduction of your speech is very important mainly because it points out what your speech is all about. It tells the audience or the listeners the purpose of your speech.
