Answer:
Cocktail party effect.
Explanation:
The phenomenon called cocktail party effect is named after the brain's ability to focus on particular stimulus whilst filtering other stimulus. In other words, we are able to distinguish stimulus and filtering those that we consider important; just like individuals in parties can focus on single conversation in a noisy room but are still listening and filtering outside stimulus, or a mother having a conversation in a noisy playground that suddenly listens a yell that calls for "MOM!".
This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Leonard gave a speech about buying a house. He was sure to use vivid language and help the audience feel as though they were going through the process. This would most likely be considered which type of informative speech?
A. definition
B. demonstration
C. description
Answer:
The correct answer is letter C. description.
Explanation:
We can reach the conclusion that letter C is the best option by elimination. As we know, an informative speech, as the name suggests, aims to inform the audience about a certain topic. There are, however, at least three types of informative speeches.
A definition speech would explain the topic by defining what it is, its meaning, theory, or philosophy. A demonstration speech would explain how to do something, basically teaching the audience the step-by-step. Since it demonstrates, visual aid is used to help the audience visualize and understand the step. What Leonard did does not fit in any of those two definitions. We are left with a descriptive speech, the one that uses description to create a vivid picture in the audience's mind. Leonard wants his audience to feel as if they are really going through the process of buying a house. He most likely used sentences such as, "Imagine you and your spouse are sitting across from a bank manager...".
Chinese immigrants. These immigrants came to the United States to work for a better life. They worked mainly on the railroads and constructing new railroad tracks. When the railroads were completed and the railroad companies needed no more tracks, then the Chinese opened their own businesses, which were mostly a failure to them because the Americans would not go to their shops.
I really hope this helps
