Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Starting with a question may be risky because your audience may consider it an invitation to provide an answer that takes the presentation off track. The key is finding the right question to engage your audience and to set up the remainder of your introduction.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Motivate your audience to care. An audience will care about your presentation if they believe it is valuable to them. Does your audience have a problem that you will solve? Is there a need for change? Are you identifying an opportunity that they can take advantage of? Is there a specific way that your audience will benefit?
