Two aims-the recovery of the American economy and the modernization of America into a
military power-were in the president's mind when he assumed office. The drop in
unemployment figures and inflation, and the increase in the GNP testifies to his success in the
first. But our increase in involvement in international conflict without any clear set of political

Read the following:

"Almost no one can resist looking at an electronic screen before bedtime. A survey by the National Sleep Foundation says that 95% of Americans admit to watching television, playing video games, or checking their email or texts in the hour before sleep. This despite rumors that the practice will ruin your sleep or hurt your eyes.

"The good news is that ophthalmologists say that the blue light coming from a smartphone or computer screen does not cause eye damage or blindness. Staring too long at a bright screen in a dark room can cause dry eye or muscle strain, but those issues are temporary. Short of staring into the sun, they say, you cannot hurt your eyes by using them. Special glasses or screen filters are not needed.

"On the other hand, research shows that looking at electronic screens does make sleeping difficult. Artificial light increases alertness and makes it harder to fall asleep. Blue light can also keep the brain from releasing hormones that aid in reaching the deepest and most restful stages of sleep. These effects are especially powerful when the light-emitting devices are held close to the face. Sleep experts suggest putting away your phone or tablet for an hour or two before bedtime. If you can’t, at least use an app that dims and warms the light coming from the display."

Finalizing and Presenting the Speech
In this part of the activity, you will use the sources you identified in task 1, the thesis statement you created, and your teacher's feedback to strengthen, develop, and organize the content of your speech. You will then write the text of the speech. The target audience for your speech is your teacher, so your speech should be appropriate for a formal setting.
Part A
Review the feedback you received from your teacher on your thesis and sources. Using this feedback to strengthen your stance and thesis, create an outline of your speech to decide how you will group and sequence the facts, opinions, and arguments you present to support your thesis statement. Your outline should build on your original plan by indicating how you will include ideas from the sources you identified in task 1.

Your outline should also show how you will structure the introduction, body, and conclusion of your speech.

Using the outline you created, write the first draft of your speech in the blank space provided below. Your speech should be between six and eight minutes long and formal in style.

As you write your draft, remember that your purpose is to persuade your audience to accept the opinion reflected in the thesis statement.

Your introduction should include the thesis statement and should pull your reader into your speech, showing the audience why they should care about this topic. The body of the speech is where you develop your main ideas and provide supporting evidence and arguments. You should consider any counterarguments to your position and address those positions when necessary. Work with the resources you consulted by quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing them. Use appropriate citations wherever needed. Finally, your conclusion should not only summarize the main points of the paper but also leave readers with a message that gives the speech a sense of completeness.

The ideas in your speech should flow in a smooth sequence, and your speech as a whole should be focused on your thesis. Use a variety of phrases and clauses to add interest to your speech. Avoid deviations from your main topic.
