Part One.
The (silence) International School of Kuala Lumpur provides an exceptional education that (silence) challenges each student to (silence) develop the attitudes, skills, knowledge and understanding to become a (silence) highly successful, spirited, socially responsible global citizen.

I feel that adding a silence after the 'The' on the very beginning creates a little bit of tension because if you were to read this out loud with the silence there, audience would question what it is that you were to say next and what the whole speech is going to be about. Then I decided to place a silence after 'that' to create a little void, leaving the audience wanting to know what the school actually provides - can the continuing be bad or good? After that, I thought putting a silence after 'student to' would perfectly fit, because if you were listening to the speech being spoken out loud, you would automatically wonder what the school challenges the student/s to do to let them know if they keep the student/s in their comfort zone or not. Last but not least, the last silence I would add is after 'become a' since for sure, audiences that includes parents would want their children's future to be bright and so they would want to know that the schools hopes they will turn out to be.

Part Twoo.

One of the ways that composers can create tension is by having unexpected silence in their piece. Another way is to take away elements from the repertoire. When there's elements taken away and silence at one moment, it makes listeners/audience ask questions, and that's when the void is built. Composers would release the void by putting the elements of music back and continue with the piece. Therefore, in a void, there is a question and an answer that goes after it.
