PROJECT: EFFECTIVE ORAL READING
A good way to sharpen your speaking skills is to read an experienced speaker's work aloud.

Here is your goal for this assignment:

Read an oratory passage aloud


The following portion of a speech is by Daniel Webster, who was imagining that he was John Adams arguing for the Declaration of Independence. As you read, imagine that you are that great orator. Practice putting power, impressiveness, and deliberation into the reading. Try to use effective pauses.

When you feel that you can express it well, have your teacher listen to your reading, and comment about your voice quality.

Sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish, I give my hand and my heart to this vote. It is true, indeed, that in the beginning we aimed not at independence. But there is a divinity which shapes our ends. The injustice of England has driven us to arms; and blinded to her own interest for our good, she has obstinately persisted till independence is now within our grasp. We have but to reach forth to it, and it is ours. Why, then, should we defer the Declaration? Is any man so weak as now to hope for a reconciliation with England which shall leave either safety to the country and its liberties, or safety to his own life and his own honor? Are you not, sir, who sit in that chair; is not he, our venerable colleague, near you; are you not both already the proscribed objects of punishment and of vengeance? Cut off from all hope of royal clemency, what are, what can you be, while the power of England remains, but outlaws? If we postpone independence, do we mean to carry on, or to give up the war? Do we mean to submit to the measures of Parliament, Boston Port bill, and all? Do we mean to submit, and consent that we ourselves shall be ground to powder and our country and its rights trodden down in the dust? I know we do not mean to submit. We never shall submit. Do we intend to violate that most solemn obligation ever entered into by men, that plighting, before God, of our sacred honor to Washington, when, putting him forth to incur the dangers of war, as well as the political hazards of the times, we promised to adhere to him in every extremity with our fortunes and our lives? I know there is not a man here who would not rather see a general conflagration sweep over the land, or an earthquake sink it, than one jot or tittle of that plighted faith fall to the ground. For myself, having twelve months ago, in this place, moved you that George Washington be appointed commander of the forces raised, or to be raised, for defense of American liberty, may my right hand forget her cunning, and my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I hesitate or waver in the support I give him.

How does Nnaemeka's father learn of his two grandsons?
He receives a visit from Nene.
O He learns the news through village gossip.
O He receives a letter from the children.
O He receives a visit from his son.

Answers

Answer:

O He receives a letter from the children. (Not exactly the children but the children's father Nnaemeka)

Explanation:

Chinua Achebe's short story "Marriage is a Private Affair" revolves around an Ibo man and his father's disagreement over a marriage. The story deals with themes of tradition, love, family, etc.

When Nnaemeka revealed he wanted to marry a woman he loves and not the one chosen by his father, Okeke, his father was adamant and broke all relations with him. Even after their wedding, he refused to accept his daughter-in-law and would remain so if not for the letter his son wrote to him. In his letter, Nnaemeka mentioned "from the day they learned that they have a grandfather, have insisted on being taken to him. I find it impossible to tell them that you will not see them."

It was through this letter that Okeke learned of his two grandsons.

Every document (have/has) to be signed by the manager.
There (are/ is) only a little sugar left in the jar.

In this text, the author gives examples of students whose failures helped them grow. In
your experience, how can failure help a person learn and ultimately succeed?

Answers

Answer:

Well, in a way it is, but it isn’t about your core personality, humanity or your soul. It’s much harder to bounce back when you take failure to heart too much and make it about your value as a person. Your importance to those who love you does not change when you fail; your potential to make a difference in the lives of those around you does not change. If anything, your potential increases with every failure experience you have, since the most painful events in life often give us the most valuable experiences and dramatic growth. Experiencing failure makes us more compassionate, and that also increases our capacity to make a difference in the world.

In 1912, an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean caused the legendary cruise ship The Titanic to capsize. Its moniker was chosen because it was the biggest passenger steamboat of its time and was marketed as strong—more specifically, as "unsinkable"—as well as being the largest. The Titanic was explored extensively.

WHAT IS THE WORD CHOICE FOR THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHING__________________________________________________________________In 1752, Benjamin Franklin had a theory that lightning was electricity. He wanted to prove that the power could be transferred to other objects. He grabbed a kite and experimented on a stormy afternoon.Franklin believed that thunder clouds contained electrical charges. His plan was to fly the kite into the clouds so that electricity passed down the wet kite string. With his son, William, as his assistant, he went to work.First, he tied an iron key to the silk kite string. Next, he ran a metal wire from the key into a jar designed to store electrical charges. Once the kite was in the air, he stood in a barn to keep safe and dry.Soon, electrical charges from the clouds passed into the kite. They traveled along the wet string, to the key, down the wire, and into the jar. When Franklin reached his hand toward the key, he received a mild shock. The electricity had been captured and transferred. The experiment was a success.At least it was for Benjamin Franklin. Other scientists were killed trying to duplicate his efforts. Looking back, it was not the safest way to test his theory. In this case, it worked out, and paved the way for future discoveries about electricity.
