1) The speaker uses the strategy of using humor to get people to remember him and his points. 
2) The message of the video related to the book, "Behold the Dreams" because both the speaker in the Ted Talk and the main character Jende are about people who were in families with nothing. They both decided they wanted to make a difference and become successful in life to help their families. 
3) Something that stuck out to me was when the speaker in the video said if you want to do something good with your life, you have to give up things to achieve your goal.

1.he makes jokes so people would be more engaged
2. he counted readings by 'beats', and was better able to understand them that way. he also used humor right from the beginning and people seem really interested in what he has to say.
3. he reminds me of jende because he talks about his family like it was so great, just like Jende talked about his hometown.

1. He uses humor to open his speech. This usually makes a crowd more receptive to what a speaker has to say.
2. I think his speech most relates to Nemi because she puts alot of work into living her dreams. She does alot of work trying to have 3 of the 6 things that he listed. Friends, Family, and the Dream.
3. One thing that strikes me is his consistent use of comedy throughout his speech. He uses his comedy to give the audience an enjoyable experience that they will remember, while giving an informative speech. He brings up the point about the American dream and you can only have 3 out of the 6. When I though about it, looking at stories I've heard, and read, I see this happening.

1) uses comedy to engage the audience and keep them interested
2) he had struggles during his childhood but he overcame them to achieve his dreams
3) why does he like the number 10 so much

# data[].attributes.body
1. The speaker uses comedy to make his point. He keeps people listening by cracking jokes.
2. His determination and ability to dream reminds me of Jende, because he went from being in an extremely poor family too making 35 thousand dollars a year. If you put your mind to it, you can do anything.
3. I thought the way he got his point across was odd. He joked every sentence and it was very tough for me to understand his overall point. That being said, it was very funny.

# data[].attributes.body
1.One strategy used was his use of pictures and quotes to express his point
2.He relates to Jende as he says he wanted to be the first person who was successful
3. He said he counted beat on his finger and he would revise sentences to reach ten beats

# data[].attributes.body
1. He made a lot of jokes.
2. Just like Jende he wanted to make something out of himself. He believed that he could do anything.
3.The way he talks, and how he fits in the jokes. He keeps the audience with him.

# data[].attributes.body
1.  A strategy used by the speaker is the rhetorical questions and humor that he brings to the table. He was interacting and engaging the audience with his speech.
2. The speaker reminds me of Leah, Clarke's secretary, because both of them are very honest and truthful about what the speak of. The speaker is honest about how difficult it is to fulfill the American dream, and Leah is honest about the future of the company.
3. The speaker's opening line had the audience laughing, which strikes the audience into listening to his story.

# data[].attributes.body
1) The speaker uses a bunch of humor to keep the audience entertained and engaged in his speech and inspired as well.
2) Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life. He is saying that this is a lie and that to achieve your dreams, you are going to have to sacrifice a lot and this relates to Clark from Behold the Dreamers because he constantly is giving up his family time to continue working.
3) What struck me about his speech is how he is straight up when talking to the youth. He tells them that quotes about being able to do anything when you put your mind to it and other ones as well are all lies and that you can't have everything you want in life and you need to stop lying to yourself and need to be willing to sacrifice things that are important to you.

1) The speaker uses humor to get his point across

2) He reminds me of Jende because he wanted to be the first successful person in his family and he wanted to make something of himself

3) I thought that he took a very unique approach at getting his point across but it was very effective and he did a good job keeping the audience engaged

# data[].attributes.body
1. strategies used
the speaker uses a strategy of humor on a serious topic in order to reach the audience and ultimately get his points across. He also relates some of the topics to himself to help the audience understand his points.

2. connection to behold the dreamers
The speaker relates to Jende because of his desire of being successful

3. anything else that strikes you
The speaker's use of humor right from the beginning of his TED talk encourages the audience stay engaged throughout the speech and ultimately take something away from the speech.

# data[].attributes.body
1. He makes himself relatable by pointing out his humble background
2. Jende tries to aspire to reach extremely high goals, just as the speaker mentioned he had aimed for when he was younger
3. He is very good at using graphics to add impact to his comedic effect

# data[].attributes.body
1- He uses humor to get the peoples attention and making sure that they are drawn in. One example of this is when he started talking about argyle and people who subscribe to the New Yorker. He also jokes about the Ted Talk he is giving.
2- Jende can relate to this I feel because he had set goals he wanted to meet, and he talked about buying his family a house just like Jende had saved up for an apartment for his family.
3- Something that struck me about this video is how straight up he is. Most people when they talk about the American Dream seem to look at it somewhat positively. But he goes into it negatively and almost exposes the truth behind achieving your dream.

# data[].attributes.body
- Uses his fame to draw others in, talks about his past/hometown
- Has similar ambition to our main character
- Very strangely confident, it's wild

# data[].attributes.body
1. The speaker uses humor so that the audience doesn't get bored with his speech.
2. He reminds me of Jende because he talks about his family life as Jende talks about his hometown.
3. One thing that struck me was his confidence with his past. He knew that it took him years to know his place, and he was not afraid to express what he went through to get to where he is now.

1- He uses comedy so that people like him and listen to what he has to say.
2- He is similar to Jende because they both had rough childhood but they both aspire to become very successful.
3- Something that struck me is that he is suddenly dissing the positive things we are told all the time and making it negative.

# data[].attributes.body
1) He spoke louder and more passionately when he wanted to make a statement/ important point.
2) This reminds me of Jende because he talks about becoming something from nothing-- the same way he wasn't successful in the beginning but now he is.
3) He brought up serious topics like death and teen pregnancy as a joke.

# data[].attributes.body
1.) A strategy used by the speaker is humor in order to engaged the listeners with this serious topic. This allows people to better understand the topic and to relate some of these stories to themselves, just like he relates them to himself.
2.) A character from Behold the Dreamers that relates to the idea of wanting to achieve the American Dream and become successful is Jende.
3.) Something that struck me about this speakers TED Talk was that he began his speech by laughing. I think that this strategy was extremely smart because it allows the audience to become engaged right from the very start of his speech.

# data[].attributes.body
1. He used humor to gain the attention of the audience and keep there attention.

2. Jende is like the author trying to follow the American dream by getting a job as a driver for the CEO.

3. He was always told he can be anything but he says children need to find there inner freak on there own and not be told they can be anything.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The speaker uses humor as a strategy to get his audience to pay attention to him.
2. He connects to Jendi or Neni because they're determined to make something out of themselves and achieve their dreams.
3. Something that stuck out to me was how he made jokes throughout his speech which didn't make the Ted Talk boring, it made it interesting.
