    Common public speaking problems

    The use of “I feel”, “I think” and “maybe”

    In the question-and –answer session of the speaking competition, many contestants began their answers with uncertain expressions like “I feel”, “I hear”, “maybe” and “perhaps”. These words show that the person is only speaking from his or her point of view. 1.

    Work on keeping your answers brief and to the point. Also work on delivering them with calmness and confidence. Instead of the empty-sounding “I guess”, using facts, together with a clear conclusion based on those facts, is far more likely to be popular with an audience.

    2.

    Don’t stick to the same tone. It can be boring. Try to mix it up. For example, when they spoke about their dreams, some sounded romantic. Others used humor. Very few used several different styles tighter. 3., rather than just sticking with the same one.

    Irresponsible answers

    4.. you’re responsible for your words. Even though you want to answer quickly, you don’t want to sound foolish. So you should think twice before you talk. Don’t be like the student who, when asked about his opinion on book piracy(盗版), started by saying he supported it.

    Talking around the topic rather than directly answering it

    You should focus on one point and give a clear solution. 5.. is it asking you to discuss a certain topic or to present your own point of view?

    Use one or two arguments together and give a strong conclusion. Remember that judges are not judging you on whether they agree, but on your ability to say what you think clearly.

    A. Try mixing more than one style.

    B. Improving your communication skill.

    C. Using only one speaking style

    D. It’s important to involve your audience.

    E. Public speaking is different from personal conversations.

    F. The key is to work out what question is being asked

    G. To the judges and audience, this lacks the support of facts and seems not to be reliable.

    根据材料并结合所学知识回答问题。（15分）

    材料 全面抗战爆发后，毛泽东代表中国共产党提出依据新三民主义的建国主张。他指出：共产党决不抛弃其社会主义与共产主义理想，他们将经过资产阶级民主革命阶段达到社会主义与共产主义阶段。共产党有自己的党纲与政纲，其党纲是社会主义与共产主义，这是与三民主义有区别的。但是，“共产主义是在革命发展的将来阶段实行的，共产主义者在现在阶段并不梦想实行共产主义，而是要实行历史规定的民族革命主义和民主革命主义”。因此，在现阶段共产主义与三民主义“是基本上没有冲突的”，“现在的任务，是在全国范围内恢复孙中山先生的三民主义的革命精神，据以定出一定的政纲和政策，并真正而不二心地、切实而不敷衍地、迅速而不推延地实行起来”。他呼吁国民党“放弃个人和小集团的私见，改变过去的老一套，立即实行符合于三民主义的革命纲领，彻底地与民更始”。

    Just a couple of hours ago, I was on the plane, ready to fly home from London. The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to takeoff. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilot’s voice: “The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire. We regret that we must cancel this flight.”

    The passengers’reactions that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some passengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments (行李厢). A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers, stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said: “Hey, it’s not the end of the world,” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them. The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.

    No life is perfect; mine certainly isn’t. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances. We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.

    That’s grace under pressure. My seatmate was right—things could have been so much worse. Anyway, I am safe. I have my health. I have two wonderful children. I have work I love and so much to be grateful for. Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.

    1.What caused the passengers’ different reactions?

    A. The loudspeaker.

    B. The delay of the flight.

    C. The ground crew’s fault.

    D. The pilot’s announcement.

    2.Who turned his anger on the seat?

    A. The teenager helping the disabled.

    B. The old man taking bags down.

    C. The man in a dark suit.

    D. The man close to me.

    3.What did the woman sitting next to the author do?

    A. She assisted a disabled woman.

    B. She made a phone call to her family.

    C. She helped others carry their luggage.

    D. She told moving stories to her children.

    4.What can we learn from the story?

    A. Our life is full of ups and downs.

    B. It is natural to be scared under pressure.

    C. We should help each other in times of difficulty.

    D. We should be positive and calm when life is hard.

    Football,to me,is more than just a game.I have probably learned more than valuable lessons from it than from school.

    When I joined the team freshman year,I didn’t realize what I was getting into.Even though I had been playing since fourth grade and knew it was hard work,nothing would prepare me for the effort I would put into football that year.We worked all summer in the weight room and ran on the track to get in physical and mental shape before the season.

    See,football is more of a mental sport than anything else,so running on the track wasn’t only about getting in shape.We would push our minds by running as hard as we could even if we felt like we were going to pass out.At the beginning,I was immature（幼稚的）and only thought of myself,sometimes even giving up when I was tired or hurting.Then after the third game I had a season-ending injury.Imagine working all summer and then only being able to play three games! I needed an operation on my arm and at least five months to recover.

    After freshman year I decided that I would always give my best effort.Playing football in the college has taught me so much more than just what my tasks are on a particular play or how to block.I have learned to think about others first,and realized how important working hard is.Being with all my friends,even sweating and bleeding with them,really made us unite as a group of hard-working young men,who will succeed in life.

    1.What is the text mainly about?

    A. How the author dislikes the game of football.

    B. When the author began to play football.

    C. How the author has changed his attitude to football.

    D. What sport the author likes best.

    2.The author thinks football is_______.

    A. just a game B. of a mental sport

    C. hard to be out-of-date D. not worth his effort

    3.In the third paragraph,the phrase “getting in shape” probably means ________.

    A. becoming physically fit B. designing the playground

    C. losing weight D. measuring the track

    Four years ago, we asked ourselves: what if we could create a shopping experience with no waiting in lines and no checkout? Or could we create a physical store where customers could simply take what they want and go? Our answer to those questions is Amazon Go, where you could experience the idea of “just walk out shopping”.

    Amazon Go is a new kind of store with no checkout required. We created the world’s most advanced shopping technology, so you never have to wait in line. With our “just walk out shopping” experience, simply use the Amazon Go app to enter the store, take the products you want, and go! No lines, no checkout.

    Our checkout-free shopping experience is made possible by the same types of technologies used in self-driving cars: computer vision, sensor fusion, and deep learning. Our “just walk out technology” automatically detects when products are taken from or returned to the shelves and keeps track of them in your virtual cart. When you’re done shopping, you can just leave the store. Shortly after, we’ll charge your Amazon account and send you a receipt.

    We offer delicious ready-to-eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack options made fresh every day by our on-site chefs and favorite local kitchens and bakeries. Our selection of foodstuff ranges from bread and milk to cheeses and locally made chocolates. You’ll find well-known brands we love, plus special finds we’re excited to introduce to customers. For a quick home-cooked dinner, pick up one of our chef-designed Amazon Meal Kits, and you can make a meal for two in about 30 minutes.

    Our 1,800-square-foot shopping space is conveniently compact(紧凑的), so busy customers

    can get in and out fast. It is located at 2131, 7th Ave, Seattle, WA, on the corner of 7th Avenue and Blanchard Street. All you need is an Amazon account, a supported smartphone, and the free Amazon Go app.

    Amazon Go is currently only open to Amazon employees in our testing program, and will be open to the public soon.
