Answer

The answer is Audience.

Explanation
Option 1: Time frame

The student ignored the time frame constraint, as the speech was almost twice its assigned length of 5 minutes.

Option 2: Context

The context of the assignment was likely a formal or educational setting, and critiquing his girlfriend's cooking may not have been appropriate for that context. Therefore, the student ignored this constraint.

Option 3: Audience

The student did not ignore the audience constraint, as he successfully engaged his classmates and made them laugh, indicating that he considered what would appeal to them.

Option 4: Purpose

The purpose of the speech was to be persuasive. However, the content described seems more comedic or entertaining rather than persuasive, suggesting that the student may have ignored this constraint.
