Answer:

B). A quote from a famous speech in the past.

Explanation:

The opening or the introductory part of a speech plays a vital role in setting the stage for the entire speech and capture the audience's attention and interest from the beginning. Thus, the opening must be eye-catching as well as revealing enough to reflect the speaker's purpose and key ideas.

As per the question, the most effective beginning statement for a speech could be 'a relevant and contextual quotation from a famous speech' <u>as it would not only assist in gaining the audience's attention at once and disclosing the key ideas of the speaker that he/she is going to discuss but also in establishing the credibility of the claim and speaker</u>. The other ways could be 'asking a rhetorical question', 'a surprising statistic', etc. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

Did John Paul Jones make the range
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

John Paul Jones (born John Paul; July 6, 1747 – July 18, 1792) was the United States' first well-known naval commander in the American Revolutionary War. He made many friends[1] and enemies—who accused him of piracy—among America's political elites, and his actions in British waters during the Revolution earned him an international reputation which persists to this day. As such, he is sometimes referred to as the "Father of the American Navy" (a sobriquet he shares with John Barry and John Adams[2]).

Jones was born and grew up in Scotland, became a sailor, and served as commander of several British merchant ships. After having killed one of his crew members with a sword, he fled to the Colony of Virginia and around 1775 joined the newly founded Continental Navy in their fight against Britain in the American Revolutionary War. He commanded U.S. Navy ships stationed in France and led one single assault on England, which resulted in a failure, and few on British merchant ships. Left without a command in 1787, he joined the Imperial Russian Navy and obtained the rank of rear admiral.Explanation:
