Question

Listen to two presentations and answer the questions.

Answer

  1. Presentation 1 is about being busy and presentation 2 is about the benefits of technology in a doctor's professional and private life.
  2. Presentation 2 is better because it's more organised and the language is more formal. Main points are backed up with examples. Presentation 1 is repetitive and disorganised and too informal.
