The following is a student draft. It may contain errors. (1) Tent, tarp, sleeping bags, backpacks, warm clothes (for those cool mountain nights), two coolers (one with sodas for the drive), a shopping bag full of marshmallows, hotdog and hamburger buns, chips—yup, it looked like we had everything. (2) We said goodbye to my mom and sister and headed out. (3) This was going to be great—just my dad and I hiking, canoeing, and roasting marshmallows for three whole days. (4) The sun was just coming up as we pulled onto the road. (5) The drive across the valley to Yosemite takes about three hours, and there's not much to see. (6) It's mostly just straight flat highway through mile after mile of tomato fields. (7) I told my dad that someone must like ketchup more than I do. (8) He laughed. (9) But then he reminded me that I was rather fond of spaghetti and pizza sauce. (10) I couldn't argue with that. (11) When we got to our campground, it was already crowded. (12) Nonetheless, by some miracle, there were one open right across from the showers. (13) Someone must have just left the campgrounds. (14) We grabbed the spot, jumped out of the car and breathed in the mountain air. (15) After piling the food on the picnic table, we got to work setting up the tent. (16) That done, we built a fire in the grate and roasted hot dogs for an early lunch. (17) That afternoon, the whole next day, and the morning of the day after that, we hiked and swam and canoed during the day and roasted hot dogs and hamburgers and marshmallows in the evenings. (18) And we talked. (19) My dad told me stories of things he did when he was my age and what it was like growing up back then. (20) I told him the things I wanted to do with my life. (21) On the drive home, we were both pretty quiet. (22) We were tired. (23) But it was a good kind of tired. (24) We were tired from an adventure that neither of us would ever forget. 2 Select the correct answer.

Adapt the speech you delivered in lesson 2 to an audience of professionals, teachers, and parents. the audience expects a more formal delivery. your listeners also expect you to use media such as images and audio to make your speech more convincing and easier to understand. your assignment should include the following elements: -at least four sources to back up your ideas -media elements to illustrate your ideas -changes to both the style and content of the speech to make it more appropriate to the audience -citations that follow mla guidelines as you revise your presentation, research and cite at least four sources. at least two of these sources must provide supporting evidence, such as charts and graphs or quotes from newspapers or other credible sources. the other two sources can provide material to grab the audience's attention — for example, photos that your audience visualize what you're talking about or music that sets the mood. you can also create original images, but these will not count as sources. here are some types of media that you may use to either show evidence or move the audience: quotes tables, charts, and graphs images video audio (including music) mix up the types of media you use so that no medium is used more than twice. take care that all your sources contribute to your speech in an obvious way. they should either back up what you're saying or make your ideas easier for your audience to understand logically or emotionally. avoid visual aids that are off topic or confusing. ask yourself these questions as you revise: am i still fulfilling the requirements of the speech i gave in lesson 2? is my speech still about a theme in franklin roosevelt's four freedoms speech? do i connect that theme to my own life and to a current issue? are my sources credible and relevant? will they convince an audience of parents, teachers, and professionals? do my media elements enhance my speech? do they set the mood, explain something difficult, or offer convincing proof? do i avoid media elements that are more distracting than ? did i cite my sources according to mla guidelines? did i check my works-cited page against sample works-cited pages to make sure it's correct?
