Question
select the correct text in the passage.
which two parts of this excerpt from \the art of public speaking\ by dale carnegie indicate that it is written using second-person point of view?
do not be disheartened if at first you suffer from stage-fright. dan patch was more susceptible to suffering than a superannuated dray horse would be. it never hurts a fool to appear before an audience, for his capacity is not a capacity for feeling. a blow that would kill a civilized man soon heals on a savage. the higher we go in the scale of life, the greater is the capacity for suffering.
for one reason or another, some master-speakers never entirely overcome stage-fright, but it will pay you to spare no pains to conquer it. daniel webster failed in his first appearance and had to take his seat without finishing his speech because he was nervous. gladstone was often troubled with self-consciousness in the beginning of an address. beecher was always perturbed before talking in public.
The second-person point of view directly addresses the reader using the pronoun "you". These two sentences use "you" to speak directly to the audience, which marks the second-person perspective in the text.
