  11. Causal Order Main points show cause-effect relationship

  12. Causal Order • The U.S. faces a shortage of qualified air-traffic controllers. • If this shortage continues, it will create serious problems for airline safety.

  14. Puppy mills are a serious problem across the U.S. • Solving the problem requires legislation and individual initiative.

  23. Internal Preview Statement in body of speech indicating what speaker will discuss next
