Question 18 • Speech I - B

The title of Jack’s speech is: No Vouchers In Higher Education. Which of the following would be the best thesis statement for his speech?

Answer
A
Vouchers in higher education improve our public schools and colleges, because experiments show us that education vouchers provide much-needed public funds for those who would otherwise not be able to benefit from the system.
B
Vouchers in higher education do not improve our public schools and colleges.
C
Vouchers in higher education do not improve our public schools and colleges, because experiments show us that education vouchers divert much-needed public funds for the few and have weakened the entire system.
D
Why don’t vouchers in higher education improve our public schools and colleges?

Explanation

A strong thesis clearly states the speech’s position and gives reasons that the speech can support. Choice C argues against vouchers in higher education and explains why: they divert public funds to a few people and weaken the system. Choice B states the position but gives no supporting reasons, while choice D is a question rather than a thesis statement.
