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.
Ever hear about a girl named Anne Frank? Anne Frank was a girl whose family was a Jew and they had to go into hiding because of the Nazi's trying to kill all of the Jews. Now Anne was a very loud and happy girl. She always knew what to say. She goes through problems while in hiding like Jealously and having Courage.
Anne loved writing in her diary and that is what she did for fun when everyone had to be quiet. She also liked reading. She was then very loud when everyone left the building they were hiding on top of. She never cared about what anyone thought of her when she was loud. She also say what happened in her mind which led to some problems.
Anne may sound perfect but she isn't she thinks that Margot (her sister) is better than her. She wants to fit in with her family but she thinks she is the odd one out of the family. She also thinks that Peter (the son of the other family that's in hiding with the Franks) hates her because she is acting like a child and not acting like an adult Woman. She feels as she doesn't fit in.
Now Anne says many smart remarks in the story of "The Diary of Anne Frank" on thing she says is, "I want to go on living after my death." That quote has been floating around the world as people in many different countries read Anne's Diary and understand the Circumstances that she has to go through. Also she says "Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart." Many people are shocked by this because could Hitler still have a good heart after what he did to all the people during the Holocaust? or Did the Nazi's have a good heart for helping Hitler out and killing innocent people. That statement she says makes people wonder why she said that as they read her diary.
Hope that helped!
