Here are tips for a successful speech from a professional speechwriter：

No speech should last more than 20 minutes.1.      The Sermon on the Mount,a collection of sayings and teachings of Jesus,for example,lasted hardly more than three minutes.

  Focus on one topic. We’re human beings and tend to have lots of thoughts,opinions and ideas. You have to make the proper selection. 2.       Include and expand only those that explain and support your viewpoint (觀點).

  3.       It’s important to remember that your words must be hearable and understandable.

  Humour is vital.4.      Ronald Reagan always wanted to joke at the start of a speech because he needed the quick victory of laughter. It helped him relax. It also helped the audience relax.

  Don’t forget to say thanks. You should always,at the beginning of the speech,thank the person who invited you and introduced you.5.      While you’re doing it,the audience gets a chance to daydream and settle down. They’re going to daydream at some point anyway,and it may as well be before you get to the heart of your remarks.

   A. Choose your words carefully.

   B. And saying thanks at the beginning has a practical purpose.

   C. First you have to work out what you’re going to say.

   D. Every speech needs it,and you need it,too,probably at the beginning.

   E. Stick to one subject -the future of the soccer club,for example.

   F. This process takes time,so start once you begin thinking about the speech.

   G. The more important the message is,the less time it requires to say it.

 

[文章大意]本文介紹如何做專業(yè)的演講及提到五點建議。

1. G根據(jù)上文提到"No speech should last more than 20 mi-nutes."可知演講最好不要超過20分鐘，故選G，即信息越重要，需要的時間就越短。

2. E根據(jù)上文提到"We're human beings and tend to have lots of thoughts,opinions and ideas. You have to make the proper selection."可知我們有許多的想法、意見，你不得不做合適的選擇。故選E。

3. A根據(jù)下文可知，你的話必須是易懂的，容易理解的，故選A.

4. D根據(jù)本段的"Humour is vital."和下句提到"Ronald Re?agan always wanted to joke at the start of a speech because he needed the quick victory of laughter.”可知選D項。

5. B根據(jù)上一句話提到"You should always,at the beginning of the speech,thank the person who invited you and intro?duced you."可知你在開始演講的時候就感謝邀請你的人。故選B.

1. [原文]Goods must be of proper quality,must be as described on the package and must be fit for any particular purpose made known by the seller. Those three rules used for the goods you buy can also be used for the goods you get on hire,or for the goods you get as part of a service.

  There are also rules which deal with the standard of services you get from,say travel agents,shoe repairers,hairdressers and builders. These tell you what you should expect from any service you pay for.

  A person providing a service must do so：

  —With reasonable care and skill. You should expect a proper standard of workmanship (工藝) • A new house should have straight walls and the roof must not leak.

  —Within a reasonable time. A shop should not take three months to repair your TV. You can always agree upon a completion time with the supplier of the service.

You,the customer,must pay：

  A reasonable charge for a service,where no price has been fixed in advance. A trader cannot expect a large payment for a small job.

[問題] The passage is trying to      .

   A. ask the customer to buy goods and services of high quality

   B. advise the buyer how to pay a reasonable price for a service

   C. tell the customer what rights he has once he pays for something

   D. warn the seller what he sells must meet the buyer’s requirements

  It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain for almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. If we didn’t see some rain soon,we would lose everything.

  I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year-old son,Billy,walking towards the woods. He was obviously walking with great effort. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods,he came running out again,towards the house.

  Moments later,however,he was once again walking towards the woods. This activity went on for over an hour： walking cautiously to the woods,then running back to the house. Finally,my curiosity got the best of me. I went out of the house and followed him on his journey.

  He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked,being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns (荊棘) slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. As I leaned in to spy on him,I saw the most amazing site.

  Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground,obviously suffering from the heavy loss of water,lifting its head with great effort to drink the water cupped in my beautiful boy’s hands.

  I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart working so hard to save a life. As my tears began to hit the ground,they were suddenly joined by other drops...and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky.  It was as if God,himself,was weeping with pride.
