Final Assessment Questions on “The Art of Oratory and Speech Culture”

Card – 1
1. The Art of Oratory in the East: Kaykovus “Kobusnoma” was written by Kaikovus in 1082- 1083 and it was written as an exhortation to his child, urging him to speak pleasantly, appropriately, not to speak in vain. Chapters 6-7 of the work are about knowledge, etiquette, eloquence: “…Know that the craft of words is better than all other trades, because, .. man is ten degrees superior to other animals, and this advantage is present in the human body; the five appear on the outside of the human body and the other five are hidden inside; these are: 1.memorizing something 2.always remembering 3.imagining 4.being able to distinguish 5.speaking. In the East, including in the Movaraunnahr region, much work has been done and information has been collected on the importance, meaning and purposeful use of the word in conjunction with the development of artistic and scientific creativity, as well as preaching and the promotion of the Qur'an.
2.Importance of public speaking techniques
Public speaking occurs when you give a speech before a live audience. It differs from other types of speaking, such as videos, which may be recorded. It's also different from online presentations, which are created and then uploaded to the Internet. Public speaking gives you many opportunities. That includes improving your confidence level and giving you the opportunity to champion a cause you care about. Plus, having effective public speaking skills can help you find a job. Many jobs, such as an instructor or sales professional, require you to speak in public. Even when a job doesn't include public speaking in the job description, employers still value the skill. In one survey, 600 employers said that good communication skills were twice as important as managerial skills.


3. Types of persuasive speech
There are three different types of persuasive speeches that are used to convince an audience: factual persuasive speech, value persuasive speech and policy persuasive speech. Let's look at these in more detail.Factual persuasive speech is based on whether or not a particular topic is true, and is backed by concrete evidence. This type of speech persuades the audience as to whether something exists or does not exist, whether it happened or did not happen. For instance, a college student giving a speech about Neil Armstrong landing on the moon in 1969 is an example of factual persuasive speech. The moon landing by Neil Armstrong is well documented and has concrete evidence that supports the fact that it did happen.Value persuasive speech is a speech about whether or not something is right or wrong. It questions the moral or ethical aspect of an issue. For example, have you ever thought about whether or not capital punishment is moral or immoral? If you were to give a speech about your stance on the morality of capital punishment, that would be an example of value persuasive speech.Policy persuasive speech is a speech given to convince an audience to either support or reject a policy, rule, or candidate. For instance, if the president of the United States disagreed with the current foreign policy and gave a speech to Congress with the goal of convincing them to agree with his viewpoint, it would be considered a policy persuasive speech.
