SECTION A

1. Read the following passage and answer the questions below in complete sentences:

The thought of public speaking fills many people with fear and anxiety. One way to overcome this is by making sure that you are familiar with your subject and content. In the case of presentations, Power Point plays an important role in guiding you through the content of your presentation with the help of headlines and graphics. When you move to a new slide, the headline prompts you about that to say next. This also helps the audience to understand what you want to convey. 

Power Point also offers you the advantage of illustrating your headlines with the help of graphics like bar diagrams, pie charts, graphs, tables, pictograms etc. while these visuals help you to cope with more complex information of data, statistics and trends, they also enable the audience to comprehend intricate information on performance, comparisons, predictions more easily. In other words, they help you to gain the focused attention of your audience and alleviate your fear and anxiety.

However, a few precautions are necessary. Never fill up your slides with too many graphic elements and animation effects. These can become a source of distraction. It is best to choose simple designs.

The key thing here is preparation. Plan the outline of your presentation carefully so that it is well structured. Make sure that all your headings and subheadings are up on the slides and adequately and appropriately illustrated. Go through your slides several times so that you are absolutely familiar with them. You will generate a deep confidence that dispels anxiety and fear and helps you to enjoy your own presentation.
