Last week I did something that scared me. I stood in front of nearly 200 financial planners and I talked to them about why financial blogs are a good thing.

I’m a confident writer. I’ve been doing this long enough that I know my strength and my limitations. I’m less confident as a speaker. I don’t have time to pause to collect my thoughts. I’m not able to edit. I’m afraid of being trapped in a corner without being able to talk my way out. Basically, I’m scared to speak.

It would be easy to simply refuse the chances that come my way. When somebody asks me to speak in front of a group, I could say “no”. When radio and television stations call for an interview, I could say “no”. But for the past two years, I’ve been following my own policy to say “yes” to new chances.

To say “yes” is to live in fear. My goal is to continually improve myself to become better than I am today. One way to do that is to do the things that scare me, to take them on as challenges, and to learn from them ― even if I fail.

In mid-November, a local station asked me to appear on live television. “I realize it’s short notice,” the producer wrote, “but we’d love to have you on the show if you’re available tonight.” I was frightened. I thought about recent taped television interviews that I had hated. I was afraid of what might happen.

But I also thought about the things that had gone right. I thought of how my speaking skills had improved over the past year. And then I thought of the book I was reading, a book that I had bought for $1.29 at the local store. The Magic of Thinking Big was a huge bestseller during the 1960s. Written by Dr. David Schwartz, a professor at Georgia State University, the book contains dozens of practical tips on how to take risks to achieve big goals. Schwartz argues that nobody will believe in you until you believe in yourself.

So when the television producer asked if I wanted to appear on his show, I thought big. “Sure,” I said. “I’ll do it.” I acted confidently, but on the inside I was frightened. What I needed was techniques to build up my confidence and to overcome my fear.

1.Why is the author afraid of speaking in public?

A. He is aware of his potential.

B. He has few chances to talk.

C. He is not able to edit what he says.

D. He likes writing better.

2.The underlined words “my own policy” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ________.

A. self-improving through challenges

B. hesitating before chances

C. turning down the invitations

D. saying yes to fear

3.The author mentioned the book The Magic of Thinking Big mainly because ______.

A. it was inspiring

B. it was a bestseller

C. its author was famous

D. its price was attractive

4.What is the author’s purpose to write the passage?

A. To analyze his strength and weaknesses.

B. To give practical tips on speaking in public.

C. To persuade people to follow his example.

D. To share his experiences of overcoming fear.

Grown?ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.

In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.

The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.

The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.

1.What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A.People remember well what they learned in childhood.

B.Children have a better memory than grown?ups.

C.Poem reading is a good way to learn words.

D.Stories for children are easy to remember.

2.The author explains the law of overlearning by________.

A.presenting research findings

B.setting down general rules

C.making a comparison

D.using examples

3.According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ________.

A.a result of overlearning

B.a special case of cramming

C.a skill to deal with math problems

D.a basic step towards advanced studies

4.What is the author's opinion on cramming?

A.It leads to failure in college exams.

B.It's helpful only in a limited way.

C.It's possible to result in poor memory.

D.It increases students' learning interest.
