In this section, you're going to hear six extracts from some public speeches.Pay attention to the examples of the language or structures used, which enable you to identify the functions of these speeches.1. I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth.
No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind, or more important for the long-range exploration of space.
And none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish.
But in a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon.
If we make this judgement affirmatively, it will be an entire nation.
I believe we should go to the moon.
2. As he said many times, in many parts of this nation, to those he touched and who sought to touch him.
Some men see things as they are and say "Why?", I dream things that never were and say "Why not?".
3. I have a dream, that one day on the red hills of Georgia, sons of former slaves and sons of former slave-owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream, that one day, even the State of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
