Good evening!
First, I would like to thank the organisers(organizers) of(for) this wonderful evening, also you for your presence and interest.
Though, who would be disinterested? Who has not fantasized about coming one day face to face with a Martian? Well, tonight, your dream has come true! Except you may be disappointed this incredible adventure did not turn us into little green creatures ...
Humans’ quest has always been to go faster, to go farther (comma) and to conquer new territories. Our history bears so many extraordinary examples of what we have been able to achieve, including going to the Moon! Yet, going to Mars seemed to be the ultimate unreachable goal. It was tiring, yes, to survive in off-terrestrial conditions. And without my experiences in space, I would not be able to walk right now. I am obviously standing hard …
But this priceless journey has given our nation an invaluable title! As the commander of Ares 1, I cannot begin to tell you how honored to have been part of it and how pride(proud) I am to have planted the flag of our dear America on Mars!
Thank you.

Answer:
This passage is an example of an editorial
Explanation:
An editorial presents information and contains investigation and facts but it differs from the news story since it is biased and it has the purpose of appeal to the audience, here the writer will expose their point of view, based on the acquired and expressed information and it could have two styles it could be informative or entertaining.
"In cold blood" is a faction novel, which means it is fiction based on facts. It tells a story of a horrible murder committed by D.ck Hickock and Perry Smith on Friday 13th 1959 in Holcomb, Kansas. On that night the Clutter family was killed by them.
Truman Capote stumbled across a short article in New York Times and got very intrigued by the story. He was waiting for a long time for a story spin like this.
In his book "In cold blood" Capote prepares his readers for the horrible events that are going to happen. Even the name of the book gives a hint to the reader, so it is known that somebody is going to die.
The perspective of the narration switches back and forth which involves the reader more into the story. When the perspective switches to D.ck and Perry, while Clutters are still alive, it makes the reader wonder when the murder is going to happen. With this literately device Capote plays with his reader building up the tension.
At some degree the author tries to make this horrible event a little bit less shocking for his audience. Capote creates suspense by putting questions in his readers heads like: "When the family is going to die?, How will it happen? What will I feel?".
Capote handles the murder by creating suspense because the reader before starting the book already knows that the family gets killed and the murderers get executed, therefore this book is a test of how you will react to the described events.
