Topic: Cancer
INTRODUCTION: Cancer is a big issue all around the world. It can affect the young and old, active and inactive and the slim and overweight. There are no guarantees fro anyone. Even though anyone may be at risk, there are ways to protect yourself and lower your risk. By protecting yourself from cancer, you can avoid smoking and avoid exposure to other people’s smoke. You don’t want to over eat, drink too much alcohol, or eat too many fatty foods. Also, exercise should be in your daily routine.
PURPOSE: To inform my audience about cancer
IMPORTANCE TO AUDIENCE: Cancer can affect just about anyone, so you can gain something from this speech by being informed about cancer and how to find ways to prevent it.
THESIS STATEMENT: Cancer is a very serious disease that may be preventable and curable.
PREVIEW: During this speech I will discuss what cancer is, ways to prevent cancer growth, and the different types of treatments for cancer. Transition: (I would like to start off by explaining what cancer is.)
BODY
1. Main point: Cancer is a condition of uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells.
A.) Sub point: Now, normal cells usually grow and divide to replace old or dead cells.
B.) Sub point: But cancer cells continue to grow and divide. Cancer cells accumulate in one place and those accumulated cells form tumors. And the tumors destroy body cells.
C.) Sub point: There are two types of tumors
1.) Malignant
2.) Benign
D.) Sub point: Cancers are classified according to the body part in which it originates. For example if there is cancer growth in your prostate and it spreads to another part of your body, it would be classified as prostate cancer, although the cancer has spread to another part of your body, it only counts where the cancer originated from.
Transition: (Next, I will talk about ways to prevent cancer from forming.)
2. Second Main Point: A person can take many different measures to lower his or her chances of developing cancer.
