Research Workshop: Writing and Presenting the Argumentative Essay, Part 2

Question 6 • *CR Expository Reading and Writing S2 [E4260OX]

What is one benefit of giving an argumentative speech as opposed to publishing an argumentative essay?

Answer
A
The audience has extra time to digest the information.
B
The audience can consider the merit of the argument.
C
The speaker can edit the speech during the presentation.
D
The speaker can connect with the audience on a personal level.

Explanation

A speech lets the speaker use eye contact, vocal expression, and direct interaction to build a personal connection with listeners. That immediate human connection is a benefit of speaking rather than publishing an essay. Readers of an essay may have more time to digest the information, so choice A is not a speech-specific advantage.
