Answer 1

This organisational pattern is known as the topical order.

A topical order is an arrangement in a speech or writing that explains the main point in sub-topics. In the scenario, Sally wants to give a speech on major subjects at the university. So she does this by arranging the information in sub-topics based on the faculties. In turn these sub-topics will expound on the major subjects that she wants the students to know about.
