1.(阅读理解)Reading Comprehension (30%, 2×15) Passage One Questions 1 to 5 are bad on the following passage. In giving a business prentation, many speakers think that if their idea is strong, their audience will get it readily. They feel discouraged when the audience is unable to understand their prentations. That happens a lot especially when technical experts are invited to make a product prentation to a group of urs. What can we do to make a business prentation easier to understand? In my view, good prentations have always been simple and visual. In an effective business prentation, the fewer the points, the better the message gets pasd on. You focus on the depth of coverage instead of the width of coverage. Additionally, you make your ideas visual and relevant, so the message is understood better and remembered longer. Great business prenters relate their ideas and concepts to their audience by using simple, powerful diagrams instead of relying on text-bad slides. In fact, drawing diagrams forces a prent
er to make the idea clear even at the preparation. It is impossible to draw a diagram when you are not clear about an idea. When your idea is clear, it is easier to transfer it. Most audiences understand a diagram faster and remember it longer. This possibly explains why most of the memorable prentations have been visual in nature.(本题10.0分)
