English

Tresset [83]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer(s) are below

Explanation:

1. The main topic of this speech is, to not have the fear of growing up; consequentially graduating. It helps the reader understand that graduating is a big step in life and that it will happen sooner or later. it is just a fact of life, so the passage helps the person understand that instead of getting discouraged and giving up or being hyper prone to giving up because of someones opinion. The reader should do their best and accept the fact that graduating happens to every one and they should make the best of it.

2. The form of text being utilized is persuasive/inspirational, the entire preface of the passage (see comprehension question 1.) Is persuading students and young adults not to give up, and persevere, under this, it almost becomes and inspirational speech as well.

3. The supporting details for this persuasive excerpt/passage, are that the setting for this passage is almost as if there was a meeting, or a student council meeting, for young people as well as youngsters. Steve Jobs is quoted in this passage by saying "dream bigger" telling the audience to figuratively and literally, dream bigger and to not be afraid of failure because they can always get back on their feet some how. Another point that would not be considered supporting detailed but has come to my attention is the rhetoric used in this speech is so mature yet understanding of the current situation, it is amazing.

4. After reading the passage this speech seems to be targeted to young adults/teens graduating or soon to graduate. Although as with all speeches, there is a target audience, that does not mean that the speech is <em>only</em> for that audience. A teen recently enrolled into high school might find great comfort in this speech.

5. This speech could be further improved by, in my opinion, giving more examples. This text has given many examples, you just need to look hard. In my analyzing of passages one thing that usually sticks out to me is when a story does not have many examples, this passage has examples, and the ones it uses are very powerful; but having more examples just gives writing that extra flare and makes it even more enjoyable than it already is.

Which two factors combined to form an authors purpose for writing a text in quiz for the crab that played with the sea
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Two factors that combine to form an author's purpose for writing a text is audience and message.

Explanation:

  • To make the audience open to the message, the form of the audience needs to be analyzed. Delivery and presentation help to create public relations.
  • By evaluating demographics which included age groups, ethnicity, gender, and so on, while writing a text should be considered. A further element of academic achievement must be considered, to either employ more formally or informally language.
  • When another type of audience has been identified, it helps to transmit the news efficiently, which is yet another crucial component of reading a paper that the author wants to convey thru his writings as well.
