Mary is giving a persuasive speech about the benefits of adoption over abortion and wants to engage her audience early on. Which
Naddik [7538]
C.

The speaker begins by introducing herself, allowing the audience to quickly grasp the personal significance of the topic. When audiences recognize the speaker's personal investment in the matter, they are more likely to engage. The introduction also employs an example of pathos, which is an emotional appeal effective for capturing audience interest. 

It’s beneficial to refrain from overwhelming the audience with statistics or other researchers' names at the start (although such elements will be utilized in the speech) as this may lend an overly formal or factual tone before they become engaged.
