Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) A well prepared speaker will anticipate questions and objections and know how to pronounce all words in the presentation. Practice allows the speaker to increase confidence and present in a natural voice, while keeping the timing on track. When technical difficulties happen, such as not being able to access slides, being prepared to make the complete presentation without the slides will allow the speaker to remain confident and professional.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Practicing your presentation is essential. Practice boosts your confidence, gives you a more professional demeanor, and lets you verify the operation of your visuals and equipment. A test audience can tell you if your slides are understandable and whether your delivery is effective, but does not guarantee your audience will understand the message.
