Data列数据, examples举例子 and comparisons作比较 are then used to support the main ideas. Both verbal(口头的) and visual information is used in order to maintain the audience’s interest. The end of a lecture is often followed by a short question-and-answer session(问答环节).
Read the sentences from the passage and decide if they serve to give data (D), examples (E) or make comparisons (C).
