Which are the three parts of a speech?

• A. Intro, Body, Conclusion
• B. Introduction, Body, Conclusion
• C. Opening, Body, Closing
• D. Prelude, Body, Ending

Answer: (A)

A speech is organized into three parts: introduction, body, and conclusion. The option that lists Intro, Body, Conclusion matches this structure directly in a concise, commonly used form: Intro signals the opening, the Body contains the main points and supporting details, and the Conclusion wraps things up with a summary and final impression. The other choices use terms that aren’t as standard for naming the three main sections, such as Prelude or Ending, which don’t typically label a speech’s main stages, and while Introduction is a correct term, the trio Intro, Body, Conclusion is the familiar, streamlined way many curricula present the structure.
