Explanation:

1.Why is it important that speeches be organized clearly and coherently?

It is important that speeches are organized clearly and coherently because the audience is able to follow along with you more easily and they can understand your idea as a whole. It also make the speaker grab attention from the audience and makes them more trustworthy.  

2.How many main points will your speeches usually contain?  

Speeches usually contain 3 main points. Most speeches will contain 2-5 main points.

Why is it important to limit the number of main points in your speeches?

It is important to limit the number of main points in your speeches because if you have too many the audience will have trouble sorting out what each main point is. It also doesn't allow you to expand much on each point if the speech is in an allotted time frame.

3.What are the five basic patterns of organizing main points in a speech?

The organizational patterns that can help arrange the main points of a speech are topical, chronological, spatial, problem-solution, cause-effect, and Monroe's Motivated Sequence.

Which are appropriate for informative speeches?  

The appropriate patterns for informative speeches are: chronological, spatial, causal, problem-solution, and topical.  

Which is most appropriate for persuasive speeches?

4.What are three tips for preparing your main points?  

The three tips for preparing main points are:  

-Keep main points separate. They need to be independent.  

-Try to use the same pattern of wording for main points as it helps understanding and remembering.

-Balance the amount of time devoted to main points.

5.What is the most important thing to remember when organizing supporting materials in the body of your speech?

The most important thing to remember when creating and organizing your speech is:

-Define the purpose or thesis. Write down what you are trying to accomplish and then say it out loud.

-Gather supporting materials.

-Determine top three points.

-Determine the organizational pattern.

-Create an outline.

6.What are the four kinds of speech connectives?  

Each speech should contain the following four connectives:  

-Transitions

-Internal previews

-Internal summaries

-Signposts.

What role does each play in a speech?

-Transitions are used to indicate movement from a completed thought to a new thought. Transitions indicate what idea is being left and what idea is coming up .

-Internal previews direct the audience to what areas will be covered next. Internal previews generally appear once the speaker has finished a transition and after a new main point. The speaker simply previews the subpoints which make up the point being addressed.

-Internal summaries are the flip side of internal previews. Rather than indicating what subpoints are to follow in the speech, internal summaries remind the listeners what subpoints have been discussed and they are excellent ways to reinforce and clarify ideas which are essential for the audience to remember.  

-Signposts are short statements which tell the audience where the speaker is in the speech. Often times signposts are numbers of words which suggest that what the speaker is about to say is important.
