So I need some help with my homework, this is my assignment for my public speaking class.
I need help because I don't really know where to start, and get confused on what it actually means. So if you guys can, can you guys give me some examples, like which one will you pick, and how did it deal with your life (real or not), or just give me an example or simple translation on what they would mean. That would help me a lot. Rep to those that helped me. Thanks.
Instructions:

The foal of this assignment is to practice your speech delivery. Pay special attention to eye contact, gestures, posture, and voice.
