Why do speakers emphasize particular words and phrases?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:A. To make the language more memorableWhen speakers emphasize particular words and phrases, they do this to make what it is they are saying more memorable.  In writing, this is done through italics.  Thus, when we see writing that has certain words italicized, this is done to emphasize/make content more memorable.  For instance, let’s look at two sentences (one without any italicized/emphasized words and one with):The dog was drenched.The dog was drenched.The italicized word calls attention to itself.  If spoken/read, “drenched” would be emphasized, and as we can see, written or spoken, this has the effect of helping to make the emphasized word more memorable.

What are typical topics for editorials and where might they appear?
Marianna [84]

Editorials or<em> leading articles</em> are articles written by senior editorial stuff or publisher of a newspaper or magazines. Editorials are often published unsigned although the name of editor is known to the reader ( the names are listed in the newspaper ).

These types of articles are usually published on a special page called the <em>editorial page</em>. The articles are long and opinionated, they express the author's point of view on a particular topic. On the same editorial page, <em>letters</em> <em>to the editor</em>, are featured ( letters from members of the public).

The typical topics of editorials are <em>current affairs</em> ( political or economic ), or <em>current events</em> happening in their surrounding ( elections, important meetings, sport events). The editors put forth their views on a topic they feel strong about. They help the readers gain a better understanding of a particular subject.
