A: Hey, Kelly, I got my OnBody results today.
B: Oh, yeah? What do they say?
A: It looks like my muscle development is pretty balanced. I like that.
B: That's great, Mike. All the workouts seem to have paid off.
A: I guess. It also suggests I need to shed about 5 Kgs.
B: You've got this. Just watch your diet a little more.
A: Sorry I kept you waiting so long. Here's my chocolate pie!
B: I told you. I shouldn't eat this at least for the next few months.
A: Oh, I forgot. You're on a diet!
B: Well, I'll have just one small bite. It won't kill me.
A: No, you'll blame me later.
B: But your chocolate pie is to die for.
A: I've just been informed that I need to make a sales pitch next week.
B: Hey, don't worry. Presentations can be daunting, but you've got this.
A: I'm just not sure where to start, and I'm worried I might mess up.
B: How about we work on your speech together?
A: That would be great!
B: Alright. Let's begin by outlining your main points.
A: Eric, your draft is good, so let's focus on how you deliver it.
B: Okay. I'm all ears.
A: First, using pauses can really emphasize your key points.
B: Pauses? Won't that just make me seem hesitant?
A: Not at all. It'll give the audience time to absorb what you've said.
B: That makes sense.
A: And how about intonation?
B: I'm glad you brought it up. That's another part we need to work on.
A: Oh, I see.
B: Change your pitch and tone to highlight important information.
A: Do I sound monotonous?
B: A little. Intonation keeps the audience engaged.
