What is an audience?

An audience is the group of people that you are speaking too.

Please list three different types of audiences there are.

Age, Sex and Politics

Pretend that you are giving a presentation to the following groups:

a)High school students

b)Parents

c)Business men and women

a) For high school students I would mostly likely make refrences to today’s sports,music and gossip. If the kids understand whats going on and really can have a opinion about it , they will be more interested. Also I would try to interact more and make my speech come a live a little more. Because no highschool student would want to fall asleep during a boring speech and they would loose concintration quickly.

b) For parents I would mostly likely talk about topics that they would love to hear about; my academics, athetlics and life in general. Telling my parents all the good things I do or let them hear all the things they would want to hear would keep their attention a lot more.

c) If i was talking to business men and women i would use good vocabulary and make sure i hit every topic right on the head so i keep their attention.
