Sudden Silence - Tension

Part 1

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

I put silences in those places because after the first and second silence, the audience would wonder what the school provides and what the school challenges the students to do. Also after the third silence what the school's goal is for the students. I think these places are the best places of the phrase to create tension because it makes the audience think.

Part 2

Composers can make tension by creating a silence during a piece of music. For instance, if there was a melody and there was a sudden silence the audience would curious about what was going on. They would be asking questions such as 'What's coming next?' 'Is this the end?'. Composers would create such tension to make the audience more involved with the music. If there was a sudden silence and people were curious they would pay more attention to the music and try to get their answer.
