Answer to Question 1

Answer: An outline helps you organize your message, and it serves as the foundation for delivering your speech. Prepare your outline in several stages. State your purpose and main idea and then use these elements to guide the rest of your planning. Organize your major points and sub points in logical order, expressing each major point as a single, complete sentence. Identify major points in the body first, then outline the introduction and close. Identify transitions between major points or sections, and then write these transitions in full-sentence form. Prepare your bibliography or source notes; highlight those sources you want to identify by name during your talk. Choose a compelling title. Make it brief, action oriented, and focused on what you can do for the audience.
When converting the planning outline to a speaking outline, follow these steps: Start with the planning outline and then strip away anything you don't plan to say directly to your audience. Condense points and transitions to key words or phrases. Add delivery cues, such as places where you plan to pause for emphasis or use visuals. Arrange your notes on numbered cards or use the notes capability in your presentation software.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) A good introduction fires up the audience's interest in your topic, establishes your credibility, and prepares your listeners for the information and insights you have to share. That's a lot to accomplish in the first few minutes, so plan plenty of time to develop the words and visuals you'll use to get your presentation off to a great start.
