Why is the “Address at Rice University on the Nation's Space Effort” considered a great speech?

English

Answer:

A: It persuaded people to support space exploration

Explanation:

This speech was given by President John F Kennedy in Houston, Texas in 1962.

Every speech has a goal, so the easiest way to rate a speech as great is to check if it fulfilled that goal.

1960s were the decade of the great tensions between USA and USSR. One of the contributing factors, surely, was "The Space Race" between the two countries. USSR had already sent the first live mammal is space (dog Laika in 1957) and the first man in space (Yuri Gagarin in 1961), so the USA was falling behind in this race. They knew that they needed a big boost, so they started plans for space exploration. Of course, exploration of space demands huge amount of money, so in order for that to happen there needs to exist a huge and strong support from the people. That is exactly what this speech helped to achieve as we know that only few years later, Americans were the first to land on the Moon.

How did orson welles create suspense and excitement with his radio broadcast war of the worlds
vazorg [7]

Orson Welles also believed there might have been a small percentage of the population that was panicking.  It was also stated in New York Times, that people were in a mass panic because of the drama itself. However, C.E Hopper had proven that no such thing had happened.

Read the excerpt from chapter 38 of The Awakening.
larisa [96]
I'm not too sure because I have no background on the story so I'm not sure exactly /who/ this excerpt is talking about and whether or not she's waited or suffered, but this option seems to make the most sense to me: <span>Love is always worth all the suffering.
