Keenan is from a drought-stricken area of Nebraska. He attends school in Ohio. For
his speech to inform he wanted his audience to urge federal support for Nebraska farmers

credible research and his own experiences, and he practiced several times to improve his
delivery. In spite of his preparation, discussion with classmates after his presentation

to persuade his audience to urge federal assistance for the farmers?

B) Cite even more experts to show how rigorously he has done his homework
C) Provide detailed information about relevant books he has consulted
