Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Recent research has cut that estimate in half, and it is now generally accepted that people can keep four or five unrelated chunks of information in their short-term memory before forgetting important information. By keeping your presentation to a small number of points, your audience will be able to remember them better when the presentation is over.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Questions immediately involve your audience and get them thinking about your presentation. They can be genuine questions you'd like your audience to answer, or rhetorical ones. This strategy does run the risk that your audience may consider the question an invitation to provide an answer that takes your presentation off track.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
