Suzanne’s world history teacher has assigned her to write a speech about winston churchill and his importance during world war ii. what would be the best way to begin her speech? a. with something familiar to the audience about the topic b. with a handout the audience can use to follow along c. with a picture the audience can view d. with an overview to show the whole process to the audience

The correct answer is A. With something familiar to the audience about the topic

Explanation:

In general, when delivering a speech the first is to introduce the topic to the audience as this tells the audience the focus and purpose of the speech and prepares them for the general content. This can be addressed in different ways but the most recommended and widely used is to begin with something the audience knows and then move to more complex ideas.

This means, in the case of Suzzane, the best to the begin her speech is to include information that is familiar to the audience especially as most people have information about the World War II and Churchill, in this way she can introduce the topic effectively by beginning by simple ideas and this also will guide the audience for the development of more complex ideas during the speech.

themselves

an intensive pronoun is a pronoun that ends in self or selves, such as himself, herself, themselves, yourself, ourselves. since band members is a third person plural, the correct intensive pronoun would be themselves. if the band was talked about as a collective noun, itself would be the appropriate intensive pronoun. intensive pronouns are used to add emphasis to the noun it's modifying which is why it directly follows it.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
