Throughout her speech, she repeats the keyword(s) "exchange (student)" (II. 4, 7, 11, 16) for the audience to keep this specific word in their mind, as it is important to fully understand what the speech is all about. Furthermore, Mrs. Clinton's words of choice are advanced, which are shown in the following enumeration "goodwill, generosity and mutual understanding" (1. 7). Moreover the use of positive adjectives combined with advanced words such as "positive impressions" (1. 11), "great enthusiasm" (I. 13) play a huge factor. This positively affects the reader/listener and leaves them with an optimal feeling. She also only gives for-arguments to leave an even stronger impression on the audience. She concludes her speech by using "we" (II. 19-20) in between parallel phrases to declare solidarity and to emphasize people being unity and look past the misconceptions and "stereotypes" (I. 19) that divide us. Lastly, Clinton sincerely thanks her audience for listening to her to show her kindness (I. 21). Summing up,Hillary Clinton's speech, which is supported by various stylistic devices and a communicative strategy to arouse the listeners /readers attention, interest and make them determined to participate in a student exchange with the help of her clear structure and supportive arguments.
