which are two reasons for why it is important for a speech to be well organized?

the speakers coherence affects the listeners perception of the speech.
speeches rely on a linear presentation of visual aids.
the speakers strategy has to be obvious to the listener.
unlike reading a text, the audience cannot reread parts to better understand the message.

Explanation:

1. A well-organized speech has clear coherence, which directly shapes how the listener understands and judges the speech's quality.
2. Unlike written text, an audience cannot revisit confusing parts of a speech, so strong organization ensures the message is conveyed clearly in one linear listening experience.
3. Speeches do not inherently rely on linear visual aids, and a speaker's strategy does not need to be obvious to the listener for the speech to be effective.

Answer:

A. The speaker's coherence affects the listener's perception of the speech.
D. Unlike reading a text, the audience cannot reread parts to better understand the message.
