To give you the "... frequently used aperture and speed..." is impossible. Why? Because nobody knows what the conditions will be when you're shooting. Bright sunlight? High, thin clouds? Heavy overcast? Early morning? Late afternoon? An hour after sunset? Night? A stadium lit by floodlights?
Are you certain you know what panning is? Can you explain it? Or do you need an explanation?
Are you certain you know what zoom effect is? Are you referring to the effect created when you have your camera tripod-mounted and zoom in on your subject during the exposure? Or are you referring to a series of images made separately as you zoom in - 50mm, 100mm, 150mm, 200mm?

Light metering isn't like a rotisserie chicken, you cant just set it and forget it. The amt. of light changes from shot to shot especally outside. The way your using your photographic terms is incorrect. Your not going to get very good panning shots of a parade, its just too slow. You need to give us a film speed that your using too. You don't know enough about photography to be entering a contest.

This is all down to basic metering and exposure technique - if you get that right you can choose an appropriate shutter speed depending on the lighting conditions.
I posted detailed info on this a couple of times yesterday (exposure and metering)... if in daylight you may also need a neutral density filter - and a touch of fill in flash may help to freeze subjects (in daylight often up to +1 is required).

Why don't you try studying photography and practicing. Your asking questions with WAY TO MANY variables to give a definitive answer, which is what you are looking for.
The only way you'll get better is to learn this stuff, and stop acting like a school kid cheating for a test. The answer comes from your study, practice and hard work, not someone elses.
