        We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don't do a very good job. This
    article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.
        So, you have to give a speech and you're terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you
    stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, "Thank goodness, it's
    over. I'm just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again." 
        Cheer up! It doesn't have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making.
    Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many
    facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time
    organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and
    use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience.
    Don't talk over their heads, and don't talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate
    your thoughtfulness. 
        Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you
    have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make
    person-to-person contact with your audience. If you follow these simple steps, you'll see that you don't have to
    be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more
    speeches! You're not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.

        My topic is fashion, and to make my talk more lively, I have brought along five objects. Fashion is important to all of us. Now we are all wearing school uniforms. When we go home, what do we do? We change into other clothes. If we are going out, we like to wear fashionable clothes. So my first object is this blouse. It looks beautiful, doesn't it? It is my most expensive piece of clothing, and I love it. It costs over $ 600. You may say that it is too expensive, but luckily I can pay for it. The more you spend, the better the quality is. So you see, fashion is quite important to me, I admit it.

        However, I'm not as fond of fashion as my elder brother. Last summer, my parents took us both to London. They wanted to show us some fashion sights. But my brother Gary did not enjoy the old buildings. He just wanted to spend all his time in the big shopping malls, searching for the coolest pair of trousers! For him, fashion was more important than culture. These are the trousers he bought. Were they worth the cost of a trip to London to buy these? I don't think so. I think it was a waste, of time and money.

        We must, however, remember that fashion is a very big business. Changes in fashion can create or lose jobs. As an example, I have brought this blonde wig (假发) to show you. Do you like it'? It belongs to one of my mother's friends. She told me that in the 1960s, it was fashionable for Western women to wear wigs. But a few years later fashions changed and women wore wigs much less often. Then the wig factories closed down and hundreds of workers lost their jobs.

    57. What is the writer doing at the moment?

        A. He is selling some fashionable clothes.

        B. He is buying the coolest school uniforms.

        C. He is making a speech to the fellow students.

        D. He is travelling to London with his parents.

    58. According to the passage, the author showed all these objects EXCEPT _______.

        A. the blonde wig                 B. the expensive blouse

        C. the cool trousers                D. the school uniform

    59. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?

        A. Wigs were always popular in the past.

        B. People in the east once liked wearing blonde wigs.

        C. Fashion is actually a business.

        D. Business often depends on the production of wigs.

        Studies have shown it takes a doctor about 18 seconds to stop a patient after he begins talking. 
        It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see. I came close to her room in a hurry and stood at the doorway.
    She was an older woman, sitting at the edge of the bed, trying to put socks on her swollen(肿大的) feet. I
    spoke quickly to the nurse, saw her chart saying she was in stable(稳定的) condition. I was almost in the
    clear. 
       She asked if I could help put on her socks. Instead, I began a long speech that went something like this:
    " How are you feeling? Your blood sugar and blood pressure (血压)were high but they're better today. The
    nurse said you can't wait to see your son who's visiting you today. It's nice to have a family visit from far
    away. I'm sure you really look forward to seeing him. "
        She stopped me with a serious voice. " Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not your story. "
        I was surprised and ashamed. I sat down. I helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only
    son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that the pressure of
    this caused greatly to her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there
    was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.
         Listening to someone's story costs less than expensive diagnostic(诊断的) testing but is key to healing
    (痊愈).
         I often thought of what that woman taught me the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening.
    And, not long after, unexpectedly, I became the patient, with a diagnosis of sclerosis(硬化症) at age 31. Now,
     20 years later, I sit all the time in a wheelchair.
         For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair, but I had to give up my job when my
    hands were influenced. I still teach medical students and other health care professionals, but now from the view
    of doctor and patient.
        I tell them I believe in the power( 力量) of listening. I tell them I know firsthand that huge healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story.  
    1. What does"I was almost in the clear" mean?
    A. I thought everything was clear.
    B. I was about to finish my work.
    C. I almost made myself understood.
    D. I was very quickly out of her sight.
    2. From the 4th paragraph, we can infer the woman ___from the way she said.
    A. showed her anger and impatience
    B. refused to listen to the doctor
    C. liked giving orders to people
    D. could not wait to break in
    3. What is the best title of the passage?
    A. Listening-a Powerful Medicine
    B. An Unforgettable Experience
    C. A Lesson Given by a Patient
    D. Care—a Key to Treatment .
