Formal Presentation

Question 5 • *CR Speech (ELECTIVE, 1 semester, E6001OX)

Maya is planning a presentation to persuade the audience to vote for year-round schools. Some members of the audience think a traditional school schedule is better.

Answer
A
She should include information that addresses the objections.
B
She should allow time for audience members to present information.
C
She should boldly tell the audience that their point of view is wrong.
D
She should ignore the concerns and hope no one mentions them.

Explanation

To persuade an audience with differing views, Maya should recognize their concerns and respond to them with relevant information. Including information that addresses objections can help the audience understand why year-round schools may still be a good choice. Ignoring concerns or simply telling people they are wrong is unlikely to persuade them.
