As every resident of a major metropolitan area knows, driving to work is a pain. It is not unusual for workers to have over an h

our commute to work. Highways and roadways could be cleared out if workers travelled to the office at different times. Another solution would be for workers to perform their tasks at home over the computer or telephone. If companies adopted flex-time and satellite home offices, workers would be less stressed and productivity would increase overall.
Choose the sentence that would serve as the most effective topic sentence for the paragraph.

A) People should quit working for major corporations.


B) Employees are frustrated with long commutes to work.

C) People should take the bus or train to work because it is a more environmentally friendly way of commuting.

>>>>?D) As highways become more congested and commute times becoming increasingly longer, companies should consider flex-time or satellite offices.

Yes, I believe D is correct. That topic sentence seems to be the only one, out of the other options, to address everything in the paragraph.

Answer:

Explanation:

In some classes, writing the research paper is only part of what is required in regards to presenting your work. Your professor may also require you to also give an oral presentation about your study. Here are some things to think about before you are scheduled to give a presentation.

1.  What should I say?

If your professor hasn't explicitly stated what the content of your presentation should focus on, think about what you want to achieve and what you consider to be the most important things that members of the audience should know about your study. Think about the following: Do I want to inform my audience, inspire them to think about my research, or convince them of a particular point of view? These questions will help frame how to approach your presentation topic.

2.  Oral communication is different from written communication

Your audience has just one chance to hear your talk; they can't "re-read" your words if they get confused. Focus on being clear, particularly if the audience can't ask questions during the talk. There are two well-known ways to communicate your points effectively. The first is the K.I.S.S. method [Keep It Simple Stupid]. Focus your presentation on getting two to three key points across. The second approach is to repeat key insights: tell them what you're going to tell them [forecast], tell them [explain], and then tell them what you just told them [summarize].

3.  Think about your audience

Yes, you want to demonstrate to your professor that you have conducted a good study. But professors often ask students to give an oral presentation to practice the art of communicating and to learn to speak clearly and audibly about yourself and your research. Questions to think about include: What background knowledge do they have about my topic? Does the audience have any particular interests? How am I going to involve them in my presentation?

4.  Create effective notes

If you don't have notes to refer to as you speak, you run the risk of forgetting something important. Also, having no notes increases the chance you'll lose your train of thought and begin relying on reading from the presentation slides. Think about the best ways to create notes that can be easily referred to as you speak. This is important! Nothing is more distracting to an audience than the speaker fumbling around with notes as they try to speak. It gives the impression of being disorganized and unprepared.

NOTE:  A good strategy is to have a page of notes for each slide so that the act of referring to a new page helps remind you to move to the next slide. This also creates a natural pause that allows your audience to contemplate what you just presented
