Answer:

Emphasis on words/phrases

Memory impression on audience

Explanation:

In a speech, the speaker may decide to use repetition to emphasize certain ideas, make them stand out. Because the ideas are being voiced more times, the speaker is indicating that they are more important.

Naturally, if the speaker says a word or a phrase more, the audience is more likely to remember it.

Example:

With repetition:

"They have a desire to be free -- free from war, free from starvation, and free from oppression."

Using repetition, the speaker conveys to the audience that the idea of being free is important. The audience is more likely to remember that 'they' really want to be free.

Without repetition:

"They have a desire to be free from war, starvation and oppression."

Without repetition, the idea of being free is not stressed. This sentence would seem just like all of the other sentences that the speaker says. Because this sentence does not stand out, the idea of freedom gets lost within the many many other ideas the speaker talks about. If the speaker wants to audience to remember this idea, he/she could use repetition.

Do I have to capitalize the word Pizza in Mike and Mary's Pizza

faust18 [17]

It depends.

'Mike and Mary's Pizza' is most likely a place, and a noun is a person, place, or thing. If it is a person's name, a place (such as a street name, name of a place, a city, a country, a town..) it must be capitalized. Just regular English rules.

Now, if the Mike and Mary HAD a pizza, you would not need to capitalize pizza considering it is the object. Here's an example of a sentence where you wouldn't need to capitalize pizza - "Mike and Mary's pizza was cheese." Now here's an example of where you would want to capitalize pizza - "I am headed to Mike and Mary's Pizza to get some food."

How do Brutus and Mark Antony differ in their understanding of their audience, the Roman Empire?

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer + Explanation:

The speeches that Brutus and Mark Antony deliver differ in several ways. However, one of the most important differences they exhibit is the way in which each speaker addresses the audience.

In the case of Brutus, he decides to appeal to his audience's minds. He speaks in a somewhat impersonal way that suggests that he does not understand the audience deeply. Moreover, his description of the motives of the plot is dry, and it underestimates the connection that the audience felt to Julius Caesar.

On the other hand, Mark Antony seems to understand the crowd better. He uses emotional words that create a more personal relationship. He also focuses on the importance that Julius Caesar had for the audience. This creates a more successful and dramatic speech.
