Answer 2

Answer:

Use reference tools to verify the questionable facts.

Explanation:

Reference tools are the works that are meant to help you find specific information about an important date, a fact, people, or ideas. They are made by experts so the information provided there can be trustworthy. Reference tools are meant to locate very specific information, therefore this works are not meant to be read throughout. Like a dictionary, topics are ordered with a specific criteria, like alphabetically. Other way to use them is to set background information on certain topic in this way you can learn what information will be needed in a research. Some examples of reference tools are: dictionaries, encyclopedias, thesauri, directories, and almanacs.

In this case you can look up the key concepts provided in the speech and compare them.
