chapter 1: your standpoint and strengths
page(s) 7-8 1.1. what makes speaking public?
match each example below with the type of public it best represents.
parade watchers minecraft players
bostonians
media
immediate
identity

Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we analyze each group:

• Immediate Public: Consists of people physically present (e.g., at an event). Parade watchers are at a live parade, so they match "immediate".
• Identity Public: Defined by shared interests/identities. Minecraft players share a hobby (gaming), so they match "identity".
• Media Public (or sometimes "Geographic" / "Community" - but here "identity" is for shared traits, "immediate" for presence, and "media" is less likely; correction: Wait, "Bostonians" share a geographic/community identity. Wait, re - align:
• Immediate: Parade watchers (physically present at the parade).
• Identity: Minecraft players (share a hobby - based identity) and Bostonians (share a geographic/community identity? Wait, maybe the intended matches are:
• Parade watchers → immediate (present at the event).
• Minecraft players → identity (share an interest in Minecraft).
• Bostonians → identity (share a geographic/community identity) or maybe "immediate" no, better:

Let's recall public types:

• Immediate Public: Audience physically present (parade watchers are at the parade - immediate).
• Identity Public: People with shared traits (Minecraft players: shared hobby; Bostonians: shared location/community - identity).
• "Media" here might be a distractor, but the correct matches are:
• Parade watchers → immediate
• Minecraft players → identity
• Bostonians → identity (or maybe Bostonians are immediate? No, Bostonians are a community, so identity.

So the matches are:

• Parade watchers → immediate
• Minecraft players → identity
• Bostonians → identity (or if "immediate" is only parade watchers, then:

Final matches (assuming standard definitions):

• Parade watchers: immediate (they are physically present at the parade, an immediate audience).
• Minecraft players: identity (they share an interest in Minecraft, an identity - based public).
• Bostonians: identity (they share a geographic/community identity).

Answer:

• parade watchers → immediate
• Minecraft players → identity
• Bostonians → identity

(If the options are only the three boxes: media, immediate, identity, then:
parade watchers - immediate; Minecraft players - identity; Bostonians - identity)
