"As spokesmen for the United States Government, you and I take off our hats to those responsible for our American production—to the owners, managers, and supervisors, to the draftsmen and the engineers, and to the workers—men and women—in factories and arsenals and shipyards and mines and mills and forests—and railroads and on highways."

Which is a difference that arises as a result of the different ways in which the speech and the poster convey their intended messages?

a) The poster’s images feature the male factory workers more prominently and almost hides the female worker in the background, while the speech specifically acknowledges both male and female workers equally.
b) The poster’s images merely suggest that factory work is a thankless job, whereas the speech specifically acknowledges that it is.
c) The poster’s images portray a variety of different industries, whereas the speech acknowledges only those who work in factories.
d) The poster’s images clearly illustrate that factory work is a vital job, whereas the speech barely acknowledges its significance.

The correct answer is A. The poster's images feature the male factory workers more prominently and almost hides the female worker in the background, while the speech specifically acknowledges both male and female workers equally. In comparison, we can see different industries represented in the poster and also mentioned in the speech. There isn't a specific opinion as to whether factory work is thankless in the poster and the speech talks about how factory work is vital.

The correct answer is the following: option a. The difference that arises as a result of the different ways in which the speech and the poster convey their intended messages is that the poster's images features the male factory workers more prominently and almost hides the female worker in the background, while the speech specifically acknowledges both male and female workers equally.

While in the speech the orator acknowledges the importance and impact on American production that both men and women have, in an equal level, the poster highlights the role of the male worker as it puts their figure in the main spotlight of the poster, relegating the female one to a secondary role.
