Explanation:
The audience refers to the group of people the message in a text or speech is directed to, this usually implies the topic and purpose of the text or speech should be linked to the interests, educational background, concerns, preferences and other features of the audience, as not considering these elements while preparing and delivering a speech means the audience would not be interested in the ideas explained by the speaker and therefore the speech would not appeal to them and the main purpose of the speech whether this is to inform, narrate, entertain, persuade or explain would not be accomplished. Because of this, when preparing and delivering a speech the audience is one of the main aspects that should be carefully considered as knowing the interest, concerns and other features of the people that would listen to the speech help the speaker to include elements he knows the audience is interested in or appeals and that would engage the audience in the process of listening, which would make the speech effective.
