Answer:

Hi!

The answer is letter B. Because each is self sufficient

Explanation:

Postman compares show business to the game of peek-a-boo because they’re both self sufficient. TV News headlines are used in a specific way to attract the people’s attention just like a peek-a-boo game is used with children to bring their attention. Although these don’t really affect our lives other than getting our attention, both television shows and peek-a-boo are self sufficient ways to capture the public’s attention.

Answer:

Conveying emotions.

Explanation:

Nonverbal communications are those forms of expressions be it facial, action, gestures, or even body language that acts as a form of presenting one's feelings and thoughts. The very term "nonverbal" means without the use of one's voice or mouth.

In the given sample, Brandi Chastain tore off her jersey after <em>"she scored the penalty kick"</em> that signals their victory at the 1999 World Cup. <u>This act of tearing the clothing is a non-verbal gesture, which signals her emotions and happiness, elation at winning the World Cup</u>. The act of tearing the jersey illustrates the nonverbal communication of conveying her feelings and emotions through the literal act.

"To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college" is a poorly phrase
klio [65]

Answer:

"To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college" is a poorly phrased specific purpose statement for a classroom speech because it <u>contains more than one specific idea.</u>

Explanation:

In speech writing, we must determine both the general and the specific purpose of our speech before even commencing to write it. A speech can have three types of general purpose: to inform, to persuade/motivate, and to entertain. After deciding on that, <u>we must move on to our specific purpose by taking into consideration our audience, the topic we wish to convey, why we wish to convey it, how we wish etc. Even though we should take all those things into consideration, </u><u>the specific purpose statement should be concise and focus on one idea</u><u>. If you double up on ideas, you are probably having a hard time truly deciding what your speech is about. Making a speech too broad is an almost sure way to not get the attention and the results desired.</u>

That is the mistake in the statement, "To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community and to join the Peace Corps after college." The speaker's general purpose is clearly to persuade. But it would be best if he focused on one of those two specific ideas. His speech will have better chances to accomplish its purpose. For instance, an improved option would be simply:

- To persuade my audience to volunteer regularly in their community.
