I need the best topic to do a speech? and some quote also a beat of introduction
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think the best topic for a speech would be Perseverance. Everything in life is about perseverance, overcoming any and all obstacles in order to achieve your dreams/goals in life. Regardless of how difficult things may get, and they will because thats just life, you need to keep persevering forward and fight for what you want. I think its a great topic and can be incredibly motivational for a speech. One great quote for this would be the following...

"The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!”

― Sylvester Stallone, Rocky Balboa

(Great movie too!)

Which choice should be placed in the blank to create the most positive connotation?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Extraordinary

Explanation:

The answer is <u>extraordinary</u> because out of all the other words, it it's more positive. Outlandish, strange, and unusual would put a negitive impact on the sentence.

<em>The aye-aye is one of the most </em><u><em>extraordinary</em></u><em> looking creatures on earth.</em>
