Interesting Chapter 7

Most of the things in chapter 7 and 8 were refreshments of how to put together a speech. One idea that I didn't think about before was using analogies, metaphors and similes in my speech. If I have ever used these before in any speech that I have done it was accidental. I never think to intentionally uses these types of figurative speaking. However, the text is right; These may help the audience understand a new idea to them by using something familiar and comparing it to something that is unfamiliar. I don't know how I would use this in my speech though about dreams. Even so, it is a good idea for future speeches to come.
