alleryStudying well-known speeches helps learners analyse the structure of:
APoetic metres
BLogical arguments
CDictionary entries
DSpelling lists
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Logical arguments
1. NCERT suggests exposure to well-known speeches.
2. The structure of arguments, whether logical or emotional, may be analysed.
3. Poetic metres, dictionary entries and spelling lists are not the focus of this activity.
4. So speeches help learners analyse the structure of logical arguments.
**Why not the others:** Poetic metres, dictionary entries and spelling lists are not the structure analysed in speeches.
