Answer:

D. It shifts from matter-of-fact to regretful.

Explanation:

In the story "A Decade" the speaker begins by recounting the incidents of his life in a matter-of-fact way. He tells us of his childhood in China, and of how the Communist policies that were implemented in the country impacted his life and that of his neighbours. He continues telling us about his teacher, and the role that he played in sending her to a reeducation camp. He has now come back to look for her and apologize. However, the woman he finds has been completely destroyed by her experiences, and is clearly bitter and unhappy. The tone of the text towards the end of the story is one of deep regret.

Which phrase best describes the context of a speech?

Luda [366]

Answer:

The phrase which best describes the context of a speech is:

C. the energy in the auditorium.

Explanation:

The other options refer more to the speech itself than to the context in which it is given. However, the energy in the auditorium or, in other words, the audience's attitude is deeply connected to the speech's context. No matter how much the speaker has prepared - how he has chosen to phrase his ideas, how he divided the speech into sections, which facts he has chosen to present -, the way the audience behaves and reacts to the speech, or even the audience's attitude before the speech starts - are they restless? hungry? relaxed? - all have the ability the impact the speech and how successful it is.
