Detailed explanation-1: -A deliberate look in the eyes of an audience member can communicate how much you care about their thoughts. Sustained eye contact is an invitation to turn your talk into a conversation. It creates a bond between speaker and listener, a connection that is beneficial to both parties.
Detailed explanation-2: -If you are speaking to a small audience, be sure to look at each person. If you are speaking to a large audience, you will not be able to make eye contact with everyone. Instead, focus on sections of the room: front, middle and back – don’t forget the people way in the back!

Detailed explanation-4: -A hook is a presentation-opening tactic that immediately captures your audience’s imagination. As the word implies, it’s like a worm on a fishing hook that attracts a fish. A hook instantly engages your audience so that they want to listen to what you have to say. Your hook must come at the start of your talk.
