Tems11 [23]

Answer:

In Umuofia, the Christians are led by a kindly white man named Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown restrains the zeal of some of the fanatical converts. A convert named Enoch is particularly violent, always stirring up trouble; Brown strives to moderate Enoch's excesses. Mr. Brown is a wise and patient man; he befriends many of the local great men, and earns their affection. He spends a good deal of time with Akunna; they speak through an interpreter on the subject of religion. Neither man converts the other, but Mr. Brown learns much about the local religion and concludes that missionary work should be subtle and indirect: direct confrontation will not work. He also tries hard to get people to send their children to the Christian school. At first, people only send their lazy children. But more and more people begin to go as they realize that the ability to read and write opens up great social mobility. The DC is surrounded by Africans from Umaru; these literate subordinates earn high wages and how power in Umuofia. Mr. Brown's school begins to produce results.

Alexi's speech is intended to convince his listeners that he should be elected vice president of his class. Based on the breakdo
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

- Increasing the time on spent on points I and II by 15% each and decreasing the time spent on point III by 30%.

Explanation:

Preparation of an effective speech requires arduous efforts and time. Therefore, it requires to devote the time to each point or idea to be presented depending on the knowledge and experience that the speaker possesses about that particular topic or on the basis of the level of significance of the points.

As per the question, Alexi's speech could be balanced by 'increasing the time she spends on point I and II by 15% each and by reducing the excessive time devoted to point III by 30%' as <u>the 'description of experiences and how vice presidents fail to be a part of the real change' in respect to organization and student government must be elaborated more coherently to persuade the readers</u> and therefore, requires more time. While <u>the last point is a mere suggestion or revelation of the purpose which could be managed in lesser time relatively.</u>
