Narrative Essay on Hurricane Sandy

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Hurricane Sandy was definitely a very difficult time for everyone in the northeast region. Initially I did not realize how hard it was going to hit us, because the previous year Hurricane Irene did not have such a strong effect on my town. Of course we did not leave the house, and there were a few fallen trees, however it did not affect us like Hurricane Sandy did.

Even though I wasn’t expecting a very severe hurricane, my parents still prepared for the worst. They requested me to come home and stay even though many of my friends were still on campus. I figured being with my family during this difficult time would make the most sense. When the hurricane hit initially we did not lose any electricity even though many families around us did. My sister and I decided to end our boredom by watching random television shows, and just as we found something that interested us, the power went out. We were hoping it was just a quick power shortage, and that the power would be back within the hour. We were in for a big surprise. We did not have warm water or power for five days.

For those five days we charged our laptops and phones inside of my mom’s car, and used them until they had to be charged again and again. During that time, we went on a hunt for all of our old DVDs in our basement, and brought them all up one by one to watch on the laptop. We would listen to the radio from time to time to find out if there were any updates regarding the power outage. The entire time I couldn’t wait for everything to get back to normal so I could return to school and start enjoying my life again.

It was one afternoon when my mom and I were in the car listening to the radio, when I realized that we didn’t have it nearly as bad as people in other ...

The prompt you have been asked to write about is one about a Reflect3ive Speech. The purpose of a Reflective Speech is for the orator to give an account of their experience of a particular event AND how that event has shaped them.

<h3>How do you write a Reflective Speech?</h3>

It is to be noted that the question is asking the student to assume the role of a noble laureate. That means you may want to study some of the speeches that have been given by Nobel Laureates.

Every great speech must start with proper outlines. One of the easiest outlines to use is the I - MID - C format. I mean introduction. This section is critical because it helps you connect with the audience. One of the best ways to start your speech is to start with a hilarious story.

The next is the MID, which is the midsection or body of the speech.

Assuming you are doing 400 words, your introduction can be about 100. The body is about 200, then the conclusion is another 100.

The conclusion is where you summarize and restate your key points. Finally, get to know your audience beforehand and rehearse your speech over and over again until you are confident about it.
