Choose the correct letter, A, B or C.
Planning a presentation on nanotechnology
Russ and his tutor agree that his approach in the presentation will be
TUTOR: Ah ... come in, Russ.
RUSS: Thank you.
TUTOR: Now you wanted to consult me about your class presentation on nanotechnology -you’re due to give it in next week, aren’t you?
RUSS: That’s right. And I’m really struggling. I chose the topic because I didn’t know much about it and wanted to learn more, but now I’ve read so much about it, in a way there’s too much to say -I could talk for much longer than the twenty minutes I’ve been allocated.
Should I assume the other students don’t know much, and give them Q21 a kind of general introduction, or should I try and make them share my fascination with a particular aspect?
TUTOR: You could do either, but you’ll need to have it clear in your own mind.
RUSS: Then I think I’ll give an overview.
TUTOR: OK. Now, one way of approaching this is to work through developments in chronological order.
RUSS: Uh-huh.
TUTOR: On the other hand, you could talk about the numerous ways that nanotechnology is being applied.
RUSS: You mean things like thin films on camera displays to make them water-repellent, and additives to make motorcycle helmets stronger and lighter.
TUTOR: Exactly.
Or another way would be to focus on its impact in one particular area
, say Q22 medicine, or space exploration.
RUSS: That would make it easier to focus. Perhaps I should do that.
TUTOR: I think that would be a good idea.
RUSS: Right. How important is it to include slides in the presentation?
TUTOR: They aren’t essential, by any means. And there’s a danger of tailoring what you say to fit whatever slides you can find.
While it can be good to include slides, you could Q23 end up spending too long looking for suitable ones. You might find it better to leave them out.
RUSS: I see. Another thing I was wondering about was how to start. I know presentations often begin with ’First I’m going to talk about this, and then I’ll talk about that’, but I thought about asking the audience what they know about nanotechnology.
TUTOR: That would be fine if you had an hour or two for the presentation, but you might find that you can’t do anything with the answers you get, and it simply eats into the short time that’s available.
RUSS: So,
maybe I should mention a particular way that nanotechnology is used, to focus Q24 people’s attention.
TUTOR: That sounds sensible.
RUSS: What do you think I should do next? I really have to plan the presentation today and tomorrow.
TUTOR: Well, initially I think you should ignore all the notes you’ve made, take a small piece of paper, and
write a single short sentence that ties together the whole presentation
: Q25 it can be something as simple as ’Nanotechnology is already improving our lives’.
Then start planning the content around that. You can always modify that sentence later, if you need to.
RUSS: OK.
TUTOR: OK, now let’s think about actually giving the presentation. You’ve only given one before, if I remember correctly, about an experiment you’d been involved in.
RUSS: That’s right. It was pretty rubbish!
TUTOR: Let’s say it was better in some respects than in others.
With regard to the structure. I Q26 felt that you ended rather abruptly, without rounding it off.
Be careful not to do that in next week’s presentation.
RUSS: OK.
TUTOR:
And you made very little eve contact with the audience, because you were looking Q27 down at your notes most of the time. You need to be looking at the audience and only occasionally glancing at your notes.
RUSS: Mmm.
TUTOR:
Your body language was a little odd. Every time you showed a slide, you turned your Q28 back on the audience so you could look at it - you should have been looking at your laptop. And you kept scratching your head, so I found myself wondering when you were next going to do that, instead of listening to what you were saying!
RUSS: Oh dear. What did you think of the language? I knew that not everyone was familiar with the subject, so I tried to make it as simple as I could.
TUTOR: Yes, that came across.
You used a few words that are specific to the field, but you Q29 always explained what they meant, so the audience wouldn’t have had any difficulty understanding.
RUSS: Uh-huh.
TUTOR: I must say
the handouts you prepared were well thought out. They were a good Q30 summary of your presentation, which people would be able to refer to later on
. So well done on that.
RUSS: Thank you.
TUTOR: Well, I hope that helps you with next week’s presentation.
RUSS: Yes, it will. Thanks a lot.
TUTOR: I’ll look forward to seeing a big improvement, then.
选项
A、to concentrate on how nanotechnology is used in one field.
B、to follow the chronological development of nanotechnology.
C、to show the range of applications of nanotechnology.
答案
A
解析
此题定位不难,但陷阱较多。我们首先听到了含定位词approach的信息“one way of approaching this”;然后听到“in chronological order”,对应B选项的follow the chronological development…,但Russ没有对此表态;接着导师提出第二个观点“talk about the numerous ways that nanotechnology is being applied(讨论纳米技术被应用于各个领域的内容)”,与C选项相符,但Russ同样没有对此表态;最后导师提出第三个观点“focus on its impact in one particular area(关注于纳米技术在一个特定领域的影响)”,这时Russ说“I should do that”,表明同意导师的观点,吻合题干提示的both agree,因此答案为A。
