Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) To gauge the audience's probable reaction, determine why the audience is attending the presentation, their general attitude toward the topic, the supporting information they might need, their potential biases and try to anticipate objections or questions. By anticipating possible objections or questions, those can be better addressed during the presentation.
