• B. Speech can do more wonders than an article.
• C. Speech has a human element lacking in the written word.
• D. Speech is as powerful as an article.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Speech has a human element lacking in the written word.

• According to the passage, the essential difference between a speech and a magazine article is that speech includes a human element because it is a face-to-face communication between the speaker and the audience.

• The writer clearly states that this human element is missing in written compositions like pamphlets or magazine articles.

• In writing, only the quality of the words matters, but in speech, personality, delivery, and direct interaction are very important
