Question

#44b.) which is the implied purpose of the speech? *
a. the speaker wants to discuss how many people died in the holocaust.
b. the speaker wants to make sure people discuss and remember the events and atrocities of the holocaust.
c. the speaker wants people to understand that if they can remember the events of something like the holocaust, then they will be able to further fight hatred and discrimination abroad.
d. the speaker wants people to donate money to causes which support the preservation of historical events such as the holocaust.

Explanation:

To determine the implied purpose of the speech about the Holocaust, we analyze each option:

• Option A focuses on just discussing the number of deaths, which is too narrow and not likely the implied purpose of a speech about the Holocaust (usually about remembrance and lessons, not just statistics).
• Option B is about remembering and discussing the events and atrocities, but often the implied purpose of Holocaust - related speeches goes beyond just remembrance to fighting hatred/discrimination.
• Option C connects remembering the Holocaust to fighting hatred and discrimination, which is a deeper, more likely implied purpose as Holocaust remembrance is often used to promote tolerance and fight against such evils.
• Option D about donating money is not a typical implied purpose of a Holocaust - related speech; the focus is more on remembrance and social change rather than fundraising.

Answer:

C. The speaker wants people to understand that if they can remember the events of something like the Holocaust, then they will be able to further fight hatred and discrimination abroad.
