10 Q: What makes a speech different from any other piece of written work?
A: The sense of AUDIENCE needs to be addressed throughout.

11 Audience All writing in this exam has a target audience, but… In a speech, the writer makes a conscious link with the audience – “Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen, and thank you for coming…”

12 Examples You have been asked to give a talk to older members of the community about the benefits of using computers and the internet.

13 Audience… Refer to the audience deliberately – at the start, throughout and the end. Remember that in this format, the second person is a way of showing conscious linking with the audience. The age/status of the audience will define your tone ( as in all other transactional writing tasks).

14 Direct Address Are you all aware?
Surely ladies and gentlemen no one believes? What do you think? Use one of these in each paragraph.

15 Top Tips Do not use fillers – um, oh etc. Brief welcome Outline topic
One key point in each paragraph with connectives End with something memorable Use DAFOREST & SPAMO Address the audience – ‘You’ and ‘We’ Could start with a joke/anecdote that doesn’t make the topic instantly clear.

16 STRUCTURING YOUR SPEECH
Introduction Clearly state your opinion. The main body of your speech should include: - Your argument - An acknowledgement of the other argument/opinion - Why you believe the other view is wrong. First Paragraph Second Paragraph Third Paragraph Fourth Paragraph Conclusion Summarise your speech.

17 “Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. “Mankind.” That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it’s fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!  We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!”

19 Does anyone like Jedward?
They are stupid, idiotic and talentless. I cannot believe anyone would buy their stupid and silly songs. They are the worst singers in the history of the world and sound like an animal in pain. They were both 17 when they joined the X-Factor. I don’t understand who likes them as I think they are pathetically poor singers. They were on the dreadful Celebrity Big Brother and came third. Can you believe that? Their hair looks like a duck’s bum sticking out of the water! I have a heart of gold but just cannot stand these two! That is why I think they should go into Room 101.
