问题     The first time your boss suggests that you formally present something to your department or a client, your reaction may be panic. But remember that being asked to present is a compliment. Someone believes that you have valuable information to share with the group, and wants to listen to your ideas.
    You need to decide exactly what you will say during the allotted time. Condense your topic into one sentence. What do you want your audience to remember or learn from your talk? This is your "big idea". Remember mat your are dealing with the short attention spans of individuals who tend to have many things on their minds.
    Think of three main points you want to make to support your overall topic. Develop a story to demonstrate each of those concepts. This could be something that happened to you or someone you know, or something you read in a newspaper or magazine.
    We have all heard the saying "A picture is worth a thousand words." Think about how your presentation can be more interesting to watch. Props are a wonderful way to make your talk come alive. You could do something as simple as holding up a toy phone receiver when talking about customer service or putting on a hat to signal a different part of your talk.
    Think of dynamic and unusual way to start your presentation. This might involve telling anecdotes that relate to your topic. Never begin with, "Thank you for inviting me here to talk with you today." You will put your audience to sleep right away. Start off enthusiastically so they will listen with curiosity and interest. After your energetic introduction, identify yourself briefly and thank the audience for taking the time to listen to you.
    Plan your ending, and finish in a memorable way. Your listeners remember best what they hear at the beginning and end of a speech, so conclude with a game in which they can participate, or tell a humorous story and your audience will leave laughing.
    Don’t try to memories your talk or read it word-for-word. It will sound stilted and boring. Instead, practice your dynamic introduction and conclusion until you can deliver them effortlessly. If you do this you’ll feel a burst of confidence that will help you sail through the whole of the speech.
What is the similar criterion for an opening and a conclusion of one good presentation?

选项 A、Both of them are dynamic and impressive.
B、To arise audience interest.
C、They have to be formal.
D、To be funny and useful.

答案A
