“ Begin at the beginning," the King said, gravely, "and go on till you come to the end; then stop."
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll
Starting a PresentationBASIC PATTERNS
1. ChronologicalHistorical development—most commonIf you were giving a speech on the course of European music 1600-1900, you might arrange it this way:The Baroque period (1600- 1750) The Classical period (1720- 1810) The Romantic period (1800- 1900)
CHRONOLOGICAL II
b. Past-present-future. In a speech on automobile propulsion, you might arrange your
ideas in this manner: In the days of cheap oil, auto engines did not need to be energy
efficient. Today, stopgap attachments are being used to upgrade engine
efficiency. We can look forward to new technologies that may even replace
the need for fossil-fuel-burning engines.
CHRONOLOGICAL III
c. Step by step.The topic “How to keep fit through aerobic exercise” could generate this outline:* Determine the resting and working heart rate for your age.*Begin each session with stretching exercises and low-level cardiovascular warm-up.* Through vigorous exercise maintain your working heart rate for thirty to forty minutes.* Allow at least ten minutes for cool-down and stretching exercises.

condition of the aircraft are on the right side. Tachometer Manifold pressure gauge Oil temperature gauge Oil pressure gauge Fuel gauge
CAUSE & EFFECT A cause-effect structure is well suited to a speech where the goal is to achieve either understanding or agreement rather than overt action. i. There has been a sharp increase in housing costs over the last decade[as a result]ii. It is extremely difficult for a one-income family to purchase a house.Occasionally the pattern may be reversed to an effect-cause sequence.i. It is extremely difficult for a one-income family to purchase a house.[this is because]ii. There has been a sharp increase in housing costs over the last decade. Of course, when using the cause-effect pattern, you must be sure that the causal relationship you propose is a valid one.
PROBLEM SOLVING
a. In persuasive speeches that advocate a new policy or a specific course of action.
The current system of financing health care in the United States is inadequate.[to remedy this]
A system of national health insurance would provide medical care to all citizens.
b. Possibly solution-problem pattern, but rarely. A system of national health care insurance would
