Group Of People Speaking Skills
819 words
Throughout life we express ourselves through
words. The way we present ourselves through speech
says a lot about our character. The way one speaks
to others can jeopardize the amount of respect and
trust others have for them. From the way one
pronounces a word to their posture can affect the
way an audience interprets what is being said.
Personally, I am not confident with my speaking
skills at this point. I would like my audience to
fully comprehend the concepts or facts that I
would present to...

... t criticise any of them either, but turns all
of the blame onto the unidentified man: the father
of Eva's child. She very happily says that the man
should be 'dealt with very severely' and made to
'confess in public his responsibility, ' oblivious
to what most of the audience would have realised;
that Eric was the father. This is another example
of irony. She believes that the man must be

good example of this is the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics in its transition time between
1953 and 1964. The tyrannical rule of Joseph
Stalin in the USSR was finally over, and the
