Stress affects the delivery of a speech by helping distinguish the meanings of

two words or phrases that otherwise appear to be the same because there are
words that have different meanings based on the emphasis of different syllables.
Intonation conveys different expressive meaning such as anger, surprise and
wariness so by adding intonation, your audience can understand the feelings that
are conveyed on the speech. Pause affects the delivery of the speech by
pertaining that there is an important detail to come after you pause on a speech.
Remember that a listener usually only has one chance to understand what you are
saying. So you must do everything you can to make it easy for him or her to
follow your ideas.
The best way to do this is to “signpost” your speech. At the beginning, say how
your speech will be divided up. During the speech, make it clear when one part
has finished and the next part has started. (For example, “Now that I have
explained some of the causes of air pollution, I want to tell you what we can do
to reduce the problem.”) At the end of your speech, make it clear that you are
finished (e.g. by simply saying “Thank you!”).
