Answer:

Explanation:

Typhoon Haiyan, known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Yolanda, was one of the most powerful tropical cyclones ever recorded. On making landfall, Haiyan devastated portions of Southeast Asia, particularly the Philippines. It is one of the deadliest Philippine typhoons on record,killing at least 6,300 people in that country alone.In terms of JTWC-estimated 1-minute sustained winds, Haiyan is tied with Meranti in 2016 for being the second strongest landfalling tropical cyclone on record. In January 2014, bodies were still being found.

The thirtieth named storm, thirteenth typhoon, and fifth super typhoon of the 2013 Pacific typhoon season, Haiyan originated from an area of low pressure several hundred kilometers east-southeast of Pohnpei in the Federated States of Micronesia on November 2, 2013. Tracking generally westward, environmental conditions favored tropical cyclogenesis and the system developed into a tropical depression on the following day. After becoming a tropical storm and being named Haiyan at 00:00 UTC on November 4, the system began a period of rapid intensification that brought it to typhoon intensity by 18:00 UTC on November 5. By November 6, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) assessed the system as a Category 5-equivalent super typhoon on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane wind scale (SSHWS); the storm passed over the island of Kayangel in Palau shortly after attaining this strength.

What is one example of a type of media that might be used in a speech?
posledela

Answer: The right answer is the B) A short video clip.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that a simile or metaphor, which can be used as part of a speech, are rhetorical figures or figures of speech, but not types of media. In addition, a quotation or a piece of evidence (which could certainly be extracted from a newspaper, or from the Internet, both regarded as media) can also be used to enhance a speech, but they are not types of media in themselves. I would contend, therefore, that only option B is right, since media refers to a means of mass communication, and a video clip, which is often meant to be broadcasted in the TV or the Internet, can be regarded as such.
