Question

Which of the following should be reduced to words or phrases in a keyword outline? Select all that apply.

introduction
main points
subpoints
transitions
conclusion

Answer 1

main points

subpoints

Step-by-step explanation:

In an outline, you will not be putting the densest part of your speech or text in their complete form. Specially in speeches, the ideal is to have a few words to remind you the topics that you should talk about, since those aren't meant to be directly read to the audience anyways. In texts, the outline is only meant to remind you what to write about, so words to remind you of the topics will be just fine.

Answer 2

Based on the given parts of a speech above, I can say that those that can be reduced to words or phrases in a keyword outline should only the MAIN POINTS and the SUBPOINTS. These are ideas that can only be summarized using a word or phrase and still are understandable. Hope this helps.
