  2. B. Copy a long section without interpreting the implication in Preparing a spoken presentation
  3. C. Guess an idea without using evidence for : choose and shape a
  4. D. Retell the events instead of explaining the meaning in Presenting and responding

Answer

The correct answer narrows a broad theme into a precise presentation topic with a clear purpose for the audience.

Explanation

This AO7 question tests topic focus. A strong spoken presentation does not begin with a huge subject such as social media or sport in general; it shapes that subject into a manageable angle the audience can follow. The correct choice should show a focused topic, a reason for speaking and a clear direction. That is different from choosing examples, which happens after the topic has been shaped.

Common mistake

presentation: summary instead of analysis

Students sometimes summarise Preparing a spoken presentation instead of explaining how the objective works in the answer.

Correct this by selecting a brief detail, explaining its effect, and linking the point back to "AO7: choose and shape a specific topic for a formal spoken presentation."
