Understanding Pace in Spoken Delivery
During a basketball game, the commentator’s pace varies throughout the match. At times, he speaks rapidly to convey excitement during a fast break, while during strategic pauses, his speech slows down to ensure clarity and emphasis. This variation in pace keeps the audience engaged and helps to highlight key moments in the game. Effective delivery requires a commentator to be aware of how their pace influences audience perception and understanding.
