Jabeen is working on a speech to convince fellow students to volunteer in the community. Read her first paragraph:I urge everyone to sign up for our school’s new volunteer organization. I know that everyone is busy with homework and other activities, but this is an issue that’s bigger than we are. You probably think that nothing you can do can make a difference. Maybe you’re right. It may be hopeless to try to bring about change.What advice might help Jabeen make her argument more convincing?
Answer
A
Tell students about some of the celebrities involved in the cause.
B
Make her tone more hopeful and positive to encourage involvement.
C
Provide a number of statistics to prove that volunteering is beneficial.
D
Say that other activities are not as important as the issue of volunteering.
