Analysis
DO NOT ANSWER THE QUESTIONS ONE BY ONE. INCORPORATE THE ANSWERS INTO A FIVE-PARAGRAPH ESSAY WITH A UNIFYING THESIS STATEMENT.
Act as Good Cop and as Bad Cop for your speaker and speech.
- What, do you speculate, were the characteristics of the primary and secondary audiences? What brought them together? What were their probable (related to the speech) values? What do you think each audience expected from the speech and speaker? ("Oh, for Pete's sake. Another dull speech about how we have the chance to remake the world. This is just going to be a bunch of platitudes.")
- How did the speaker adapt to that audience? Give at least four SPECIFIC examples related to content, structure, nonverbal communication (dress, voice, gestures), and other points of delivery. ("She adapted her content by adapting to the audience" not only does not count, but may LOSE you points!)
- What was the espninterviewthesis or argument of the speech?
- What were the supporting points?
- Is this speech "good" by your definition? Is it "great"? Why or why not? (Again, support what you say.)
- What advice would you give this speaker (or this speaker's ghost) as Bad Cop? What improvements would you suggest?
