Venus Persuasive Speech

Decent Essays
Ah Venus! Being the little sister of earth must be quite hard! Being only 4/5 the mass of our earth and slightly smaller I think it is justified to be calling Venus the younger sister! Anyways, Venus has a rather interesting history as it was considered to be two stars rather than one planet. Their Greek names were Phosphorus and Hesperus or "morning star" and "evening star" in english. Wonderful names really. I would say their names are fitting, but sadly, Venus is the named for the ROMAN Goddess of love and beauty, not the Greek. Terribly annoying. A mathematician by the name of Pythagorus was the one to discover that the planet was in fact a planet and not just two stars. Funny if you think about it. You would have thought an Astronomer

    On March 16th 2017, Natalie Daguiam delivered a persuasive speech to the Speech 2001 class of 25 people at Western University on why sugar is an addictive substance using a PowerPoint presentation as a visual aid. Natalie began her speech with some effective hooks, noticeably grabbing the attention of the audience. This was done in a two-step process, in which she first asked the audience “How do you live a good life?” a general question which seemed to attract some audience attention. She then transitioned into her topic by showing very spectacular and indulging images of sweet desserts while describing how delicious they are, effectively using visual rhetoric to grasp the attention of the remainder of the audience and enhance the pathos of her speech.…

    Flappers Persuasive Speech

    Oldies may say these girls are over the top, brainless, useless, irresponsible, disrespectful, or flamboyant, but these girls believe that they are the new generation… the next big thing… the “New Woman.” We’ve noticed that Flappers are actually starting to seem threatening towards those against them. Who knows, it could just be because of the new look, flappers representing a new moral order, or even the older generation still might value their olden ways. I know that if I were one of the featured flappers, that I would show off my calves like it was my job. Whatever it is they better get used to it because the Flapper fashion craze is rising up, up, up!…

    Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury. I stand before you today on behalf of my client, late Princess Diana, as the media has represented her inadequately a number of times. An article in the ‘Woman’s Day’ that was published on the 10th of July portrays Princess Diana falsely and unjustly. In the article, the reader is positioned to view my client, Princess Diana, as a terrible mother who is evil and jealous of Camilla. This is definitely a false representation.…

    What are some of the first things you think of when you think of Hawaii? Do you think of hula dancers, palm trees, pineapples? I’m guessing you think of all of those things, plus some, but I bet you don't think of the alphabet! Hawaii’s alphabet was invented by missionaries long ago, it includes all five vowels, plus the letters h,k,l,m,n,p, and w, that's only 12 letters! But that's not all, there is so much more to learn about this amazing eight island chain.…

    After reviewing my persuasive speech over why the University of Oklahoma is the best university in the nation, I would sum up my speech as a little bit of train wreck. Although I made good claims with factual evidence, the amount of stuttering I did, and all the times I was choked up throughout the speech drew my audience’s attention away. From this, I lost my audience’s belief that I was competent of the information I was reiterating to them. At the introduction of my speech I believe I started out fairly strong and gave a good run down of the coming speech.…

    “You should stop getting such good grades if you ever want a boyfriend.” He looked me squarely in the eyes, unlaughing, as he said it. He continued, referencing the graded test in my hand, “Smart girls scare guys off.” It was when I started to retaliate, stuttering over disbelief and his questionable inductive leap, that he said it: “Oh, so you’re a feminist.” Now he was laughing; I was the joke.…
