Making a public speech is the thing that most people don’t want to do. The reason is that we are all afraid of making mistakes in front of others. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we will be. But forget it now. Public speaking is easy. It’s just a simple talking, Although I’m a shy man, I’ve been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. Anybody who can talk can speak in public. Here are some of the lessons I have learned:
Keep your speech simple. Your audience can’t take all of your main ideas, and they can only remember one or two of them, not ten or twenty. So you should prepare one or two of your main ideas very well. But if you can’t express what you want to say, then your speech will not be paid attention to. And if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience won’t, either.
Organize your speech well. No matter how long or short your speech is, you have to organize your speech—how you are going to open or begin, what main points you want to make and how you’re going to close or end. A strong close is usually very important and critical(關(guān)鍵的): the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember. If not, they will be confused.
Keep your speech not long. The standard (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的) length of a speech is usually 12 minutes. Most people can’t put their minds in one thing for too long time, which will make them tired and lose their interest. If you pay no attention to your audience’s reaction(反應(yīng)),the audience will get bored. Of course, your speech will fail.
Following these suggestions above, you can make a good speech in public, and you will be an excellent speaker, I think.

試題分析:這篇文章主要關(guān)于如何做公開的演講。很多人因?yàn)榕路稿e(cuò)或害羞而不敢做公開演講,只要做到以下幾點(diǎn)就能做好演講:首先演講要簡(jiǎn)單明了,把主要觀點(diǎn)給闡述清楚;其次要組織好演講,包括開頭,結(jié)尾以及如何表達(dá)主要觀點(diǎn);最后演講要短小,否則會(huì)讓觀眾覺得累和無(wú)聊。
小題1:標(biāo)題大意題。這篇文章主要是關(guān)于如何做公開演講,故填public公開的。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容And if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience won’t, either.如果你想要表達(dá)的觀點(diǎn)不清楚,你的聽眾也不清楚;故填clear.
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容So you should prepare one or two of your main ideas very well.所以你應(yīng)該很好的準(zhǔn)備一到兩個(gè)主要觀點(diǎn);故填prepare準(zhǔn)備。
小題4:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容you have to organize your speech你必須組織好你的演講;故填organized,過(guò)去分詞表被動(dòng)。
小題5:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容If not, they will be confused如果沒(méi)有,他們將會(huì)迷惑。They指代前文提到的audience觀眾。
小題6:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容how you are going to open or begin, what main points you want to make and how you’re going to close or end.如何開始演講,你想表達(dá)的主要觀點(diǎn)是什么,怎么樣結(jié)束;故填opening/beginning開頭。
小題7:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容Keep your speech not long.演講不要太長(zhǎng);故此處可填short短。
小題8:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容Most people can’t put their minds in one thing for too long time, which will make them tired and lose their interest.很多人不能長(zhǎng)時(shí)間把注意力集中到一件事情上,這會(huì)讓他們累和喪失興趣;故此處填interest。
小題9:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容If you pay no attention to your audience’s reaction(反應(yīng)),the audience will get bored.如果你不注意觀眾的反應(yīng),他們會(huì)感到無(wú)聊。故填bored。
小題10:判斷推理題。這條建議主要是注意演講不能太長(zhǎng),故此處填possible;as short as possible盡可能短。

How do students spend their spare time after finishing their homework? Watch TV, play computer games, or go outside to relax? Here’s a good example.
Tim and Kerry Meek are both teachers. They live in the UK with their two daughters: eleven-year-old Amy and nine-year-old Ella. Recently, the Meek family has become the focus of the whole country after they completed 100 different outdoor activities in one year.
The Meek couple didn’t want their children to spend all their free time in front of the TV and become “couch potatoes”. So about one year ago, the Meeks decided that watching TV and playing computer games were not permitted . Instead, they set 100 tasks for the two girls to do outside. Although Mr. and Mrs. Meek are not outdoor activity fans, they took part in all the activities to encourage their daughters. It turns out that the two sisters really had a good time joining activities.
Every holiday and weekend, whether it’s sunny, rainy or snowy, the Meeks’ would set off to try the activities on their list, including hiking, sailing, climbing , skiing, and so on. The two little girls not only had a wonderful time, but also learned a lot of skills from the activities. They were even able to stand up in front of their school to give a talk for charity. “Our friends spend a lot of their free time doing things which are harmful to their health. Luckily, we’ve had the chance to experience something different.” Amy and Ella also helped their parents to draw up a new list of challenges for the next 12 months.

As Danny put his lunch tray onto the cafeteria table, milk spilled all over his sandwich. He sat down, hung his head forward, looking at the food in front of him. Frowning, he began peeling the soggy milk-soaked bread (浸透牛奶的) from his sandwich. “This is the worst thing I’ve ever done!” he said, “It’s not that bad,” said his friend Elena, who was sitting across from him. “Just get another sandwich.”

“Sandwich? What sandwich? I am talking about the talent contest. It’s only two weeks away and I don’t know what I’m doing! Everybody will laugh at me. There’s no way to avoid it!”
“Don’t be so negative, Danny,” said Elena as she rolled her eyes. “You’re going to be great, You’re very capable. You have the skills to do just about anything.”
Danny moved his lunch tray to the side and rested his head on the table.
“Sit up Danny,” ordered Elena, “I have an idea. Let’s brainstorm a list of things you could do. We’ll divide the list into categories or groups. Let’s start with music. You play the piano, right?”
“I stopped taking lessons in the third grade,” said Danny.
“What about singing a song?” suggested Elena.
Danny shook his head no. “Let’s move on to another category.”
“What about performing magic tricks?” asked Elena, as she twisted thin strands of hair around her finger.
“I don’t know how to play magic tricks!” Danny almost shouted. “Elena, how did I get myself into this huge mess?”
“Stop being so…” Elena paused, “That’s it, DRAMATIC!” Elena shouted excitedly. “You could do a dramatic reading. You definitely have the talent for it. Mrs. Pace always calls on you to read aloud in class. You could read a play aloud. Maybe you could even get extra credit from Mrs. Pace. She rewards students with points for doing extra reading work.”
Danny thought for a minute. Then he smiled. “Elena,” Danny said, “You are a great friend!”
Elena smiled back. “I just want to make sure you are a bright, shiny star when you step out on stage.”

During my second year of nursing school, our teacher gave us an exam. I was a hardworking student and I did well in all the subjects. I finished the questions successfully until I read the last one: “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?”
Of course this was a joke. I saw the cleaning woman every day. She is short and about 60 years old. She has dark hair. But how would I know her name? I had never talked with her before. In fact, I’d never even thought about talking to her. I stared at my paper and started to feel rather guilty. Finally, I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank.
Before the class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our grade.
“Certainly,” the teacher said. “In your life, you will meet many people. All are important. They deserve(值得) your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say hello.”
I’ve never forgotten that lesson. Everyone deserves my attention and I should get to know all of the people who work and live around me. That was, perhaps, the most important lesson of my life. I also learned the cleaning woman’s name was Dorothy.
小題1:At the nursing school, the writer        .
A. know everyone’s name around her 
B. did well in all subjects 
C.didn’t like to have an exam
小題2:The writer wrote         to the last question.
A. “Dorothy”                     B. “blank”              C. nothing
小題3:From the teacher’s words, we can know that         .
A. only one student didn’t know the answer          
B. the last question was part of the exam
C. the students needn’t answer the last question
小題4:The writer thought that         .
A. the exam gave her a lesson    
B. the teacher was joking    
C.the clean lady was important.
小題5:The teacher wanted the students to know that they should         through the last question.
A. pay attention to everyone around them.
