Your question is missing the options that would allow us to answer properly. After looking it up online, I found these two similar questions. They phrase the sentence just a bit differently, but the message is the same. The options vary, but the correct option is the same for both:
Glen had __________ opportunities to show how __________ he was for being rude to me, but he never even apologized.
brazen...pragmatic
<u>ample...contrite</u>
ostentatious...callous
enigmatic...congenial
Despite having __________ opportunities to show how __________ he felt for being rude to me, Glen never apologized.
perfidious … stoic
deliberate … eloquent
irrevocable … morose
<u>
ample … contrite</u>
Answer:
Glen never demonstrated to me that he was <u>contrite</u> for having been so rude, though he did have <u>ample</u> opportunities to do so.
Explanation:
It is common for a person who has been rude or has done something wrong to feel remorse, guilt, or regret after doing so. In this case, Glen was rude, he felt remorse about it, but he never apologized even though he had plenty of opportunities to do it. The best words to complete the sentence are, therefore, contrite and ample. Contrite means remorseful, full of regret, while ample means enough, plenty, abundant with something.
C.
First of all, in this statement the speaker introduces herself and immediately lets the audience know why this topic is so important to her. Audiences are more likely to be invested in a speech if they know the speaker is personally invested in the cause. It also begins with an example of pathos--an emotional appeal to the audience--which is effective in drawing an audience in.
You want to avoid throwing a lot of numbers or other researchers' names at the audience immediately upon starting (even though you will definitely want to use those things within the speech) because they will make the tone seem too formal or fact-based before the audience has a chance to become invested.
