Question

Which of the following identifies the general outline for a speech? A. Conclusion—introduction—body B. Body—conclusion—introduction C. Introduction—body—conclusion D. Introduction—conclusion—body

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is Option C. Introduction - body - conclusion

Explanation:

A speech that will be coherent and captivating must have an introduction which suggests and lays the foundation for the subject or the title of the speech to be delivered.  

The introduction must seamlessly flow into the body of the speech where the facts, figures and details of the speech will be discussed. The body shows the detailed content.

The conclusion usually gives the summary of the salient points discussed in the speech, and it also calls for action or decision.

Thus, the correct outline for a speech is introduction - body - conclusion.
