Speaking to a group can be difficult, but listening to a bad speech is truly a tiresome task—especially when the speaker is confusing. Don’t want to confuse your audience? Follow these suggestions:
1.__________
When it comes to understanding new information, the human brain needs a little time. First, we hear the words; then, we compare the new information to what we already know. If the two are different, we need to pause and think. But a breathless speaker never stops to let us think about what he or she is saying and risks confusing us. Slow it.
2.__________
Sometimes we all start a sentence one way and then switch directions, which is very difficult to follow. When you confuse your listeners with opposing information, you leave the audience wondering what part of the information is right and what part they should remember. Instead of relying and keeping correcting yourself, work to get the facts clear and straight.
3.__________
Jumping from point to point as it comes to your mind puts the onus (责任)on your listeners to make up for your lack of organisation. And it’s confusing for them to listen, reorganise, and figure out what you’re saying all at once. But going smoothly from one point to the next helps them understand information more easily. You can arrange things from beginning to end, small to large, top to bottom or by some other order. Just be sure to organise.
4.__________
Repeated use of um, ah, like, you know and some other useless noises can drive an audience crazy. It makes the speaker sound uncertain and unprepared, and it can leave listeners so annoyed that they can’t pay attention. Recently I attended a speech that was marked by so many ums that audience members were rolling their eyes. Was anybody grasping the intended message? Um, probably not.
5.__________
Many speakers finish up their speeches with question-and-answer (Q & A) sessions, but some let the Q & A go on without a clear end. The audience is often left confused about whether the meeting is over and when they can get up and leave. Do your listeners a favour by setting a time limit on questions, and close your speech with a specific signal—even if it’s something simple like, “If you have any more questions, you know where to reach me.”
Or even more to the point, conclude your speech with “Thanks for your time. ”
A. Be well-organised.
B. Close with a Q & A.
C. Don’t be contradictory.
D. Bring it to a specific end.
E. Speak slowly and pause.
F. Drop unnecessary words.
G.how to make life simple.

举一反三
76 . Not caring about the money, parents in China often send their children to the best schools or even abroad like England, the US or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. 77 .
Parents can see that their children’s skills vary, skilled in some areas while poor in others. 78 . Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. 79 . A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.
An old machine such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with may make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up.
80 . And that is more important.
A.However, what most parents fail to see is that the best education they can give their children is usually very cheap. |
B.Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. |
C.It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. |
D.Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework. |
F. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, and to use his mind.
G. What most parents fail to realize, though, is that today’s children lack self-respect and self-confidence.
Some students thought that they can learn English well if they remember the grammar rules and learn by hearts as much words as they can. And I don’t quite agree with them. Learning rules from a grammar book and remember long lists of words are not enough. We must learn by
listening to, speaking, reading and writing. We should practice our spoken English both in and out class, and try to read and listen whenever possible. This is also helpful to keep diaries and write letters or shortly stories in English. Only with this way can we learn English well.

One day I hurried home for lunch after school because of there would be an exam in the afternoon. I expected get back early to prepare for the exam. But when I got home, the lunches was not ready yet. I am unhappy. When the dishes were served, I found none what I liked. I ran out of the house angry, and then walking in the street for a while. When I got into the room, I saw the lunch box on my desk. One classmate told me my mother had brought them for me. Before opening the box, I found my favorite food inside. My eyes quickly filled with tears.
Animation means making things which are lifeless come alive and move.
__1__ But not until this century have we managed to capture it, to record it, and in the case of animation, to reinterpret it and recreate it. __2__
In the world of cartoon animation, nothing is impossible. You can make the characters you create do exactly what you want them.
A famous early cartoon character was Felix, the Cat, created by Pat Sullivan in American in the early nineteen twenties. __3__ He could do all sorts of things no natural cat could do like taking off his tail, using it as a handle and then putting it back.
Most of the great early animators lived and worked in America, the home of the moving picture industry. __4__ Popeye, the Sailorman and his girl friend Olive Oyl were born at the Max Fleischer studios in 1933.
But to be an animator, you don"t have to be a professional. __5__ All you have to do is draw directly on to blank film and then run a projector.
A.To do all this, we use a movie camera and a projector. |
B.It is possible for anyone to make a simple animated film without using a camera at all. |
C.Felix was a marvelous cat. |
D.From earliest times, people have always been fascinated by movement. |
F. Felix, the lovely cat, makes our audience laugh all the time.
G. The famous Walt Disney cartoon characters came to life after 1928.
In a national spelling contest in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her soft voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. __1__ At that time, the girl knew she had misspelled the word. But instead of lying and telling the judges she had said the correct letter, she told the truth that she had said the wrong letter. __2__.
As the girl walked off the stage, the entire audience stood on their feet clapping to applaud her honesty. Later, dozens of newspaper wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s courage and honesty, even when it cost her the contest. __3__
Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is what we would do if we knew we would never get caught.
This young girl could easily have lied, and nobody would have known it but her. But that’s just it: She would know she did wrong. __4__
This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own conscience and character more than the prize from a spelling contest. Her respect for herself was more important than any respect others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the choice she made at the moment.
__5__
A.So she won the contest. |
B.As a result, she lost the contest. |
C.The judges wanted to give her another chance. |
D.It’s been said, “If you cheat, you make yourself cheap.” |
F. They talked it over and finally decided to simply ask her what she had said.
G. But the fact is that she won the biggest contest that day: the contest of her character.
