My Favorite Speech

Every speech is my favorite; yet before giving these speeches, they were my nightmare. Honestly, I could not compare which one is my favorite because they all have differently characteristic content. The culture speech was a warm up of public speaking. The demonstrative speech was like teaching a class that I taught my audiences how to make Chinese rice balls. The informative speech was as an educational course, in which I informed my audiences about the various characters of volcanoes. The tribute speech was as a sharing experience with an important person to whom I met. And the final persuasive speech, which was the most challenging one, was to convince my audiences to support my idea about passing the Death with Dignity Act. If I really need to pick a favorite one, I think the demonstrative speech, how to make a rice ball, would be my favor for many reasons. First, the speech’s purpose is to teach my audiences what I know about the original history of the Chinese rice ball and how to make it. Therefore, I was passionate in giving the speech. Moreover, if my audiences like the food, they would have a new exotic food on their dining room table to satisfy their appetite, and no matter they make their own rice balls or buy them from stores. If they don’t like the rice ball, at least they know about the original source and history of the rice ball. Accordingly, I felt this speech was full of fun without stress. On the other hand, the culture, persuasive and tribute speech was a little heavy for my audiences because the core of topics was about death. Therefore, the demonstrative speech is my favorite speech.
