When constructing a speech, the thing to keep in mind is there are three main parts—an introduction, the body, and the conclusion. In the introduction, you’ll want to have an attention getter that draws the audience in. One way to do this if speaking about Obesity: A Curse is to, perhaps, mention a shocking statistic or even an anecdote. Then (think of a speech like an essay where you’ll have a thesis statement), preface the speech by mentioning the three points you’ll discuss. Then, in the order you mention your three points, discuss the points in one paragraph each for the body mentioning your strongest point last and second strongest first. After that, with your conclusion recap all of the points mentioned and have a call to action for the audience or even a “what if” scenario if obesity is not addressed.
Answer
1. A
2. B
Explanation
I picked the answer A because in the sentence “The air was deadly cold and the wind was like a flat blade of ice on his cheek.” it included a simile which is a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g., as brave as a lion, crazy like a fox ), and in the sentence there was a word that shows there is a simile, which is "like a flat blade or ice" and there was also personification which was "The air was deadly cold". I picked answer B because the statement "someone … who is just exactly right”, "Like you." seems supicous in my eyes.
