In an intro to any essay, you want to hint at what is to come. But to start- you want to have a thesis and a hook. A thesis is what you want the reader to take away- what your main point is about your essay. A hook could be a rhetorical device, such as a statement using facts (logos- one rhetorical device), or something along those lines. So ask yourself- what are you trying to get the reader to THINK or what are you trying to get the reader to DO? Best of luck! Let me know if you need any more help.
Answer:
In <em>The Wife of Bath's Tale</em>, Queen states that one sentence can be used and answered by the Knight, in order to save his life. The question she asks him is: "What do women desire the most?".
The Queen gives the Knight exactly one year and one day to reveal the correct answer.
Explanation:
<em>The Wife of Bath's Tale</em> is one of 24 stories in <em>Canterbury Tales</em>, written by Geoffrey Chaucer. It reveals the role of women in the Late Middle Ages and it refers to female sovereignty, behavior in marriage, love, feminist critique, etc.
In this story, a knight is accused of sexual assault, and his life can be saved if he discovers what women most desire. He met an old witch who offered him help if he does one thing she asks of him.
The answer to the question was: sovereignty over man.
This answer is accepted in court and because of that, the witch demands that the knight marry her. In bed, she asked him if he would want to have an ugly but faithful wife or beautiful but faithless. The Knight said the choice must be hers. After this, the witch became young and beautiful.
How we deliver a speech is just as important, if not more so, than the basic message we are trying to convey to an audience. But if you have worked hard on preparing the verbal part of your speech, you may feel that delivery is just an “extra” that should not require much time or effort. After all, your speech is carefully planned, researched, and polished. It is committed safely to paper and hard drive. It’s a carefully constructed, logically crafted, ethical message. The words alone should engage your audience’s attention and interest—right?
After all the work of building such a message, you might wish that you could simply read it to the audience. However, this is the case in only a few kinds of circumstances: when the message is highly technical, complex, and extremely important (as in a new medical discovery); when international protocols and etiquette are crucially important and the world is listening; or when the speaker is representing a high-ranking person, such as a president or a king, who is unable to be present. For the purposes of your public speaking class, you will not be encouraged to read your speech. Instead, you will be asked to give an extemporaneous presentation. We will examine what that means.
The nonverbal part of your speech is a presentation of yourself as well as your message. Through the use of eye contact, vocal expression, body posture, gestures, and facial display, you enhance your message and invite your audience to give their serious attention to it, and to you. Your credibility, your sincerity, and your knowledge of your speech become apparent through your nonverbal behaviors.
The interplay between the verbal and nonverbal components of your speech can either bring the message vividly to life or confuse or bore the audience. Therefore, it is best that you neither overdramatize your speech delivery behaviors nor downplay them. This is a balance achieved through rehearsal, trial and error, and experience.
In this chapter, we are going to examine effective strategies for delivering a speech. To help you enhance your delivery, we will begin by exploring the four basic methods of speech delivery. Second, we will discuss how to prepare your delivery for different environments. Third, we will talk about how to effectively use notes to enhance your delivery. Finally, we will examine characteristics of good delivery and give some strategies for practicing effectively for the day when you will deliver your speech.
