This article gives some suggestions
12、on how to give an effective speech. So, you have to give a speech- and youre 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, its over. Im just no good at public speaking. I hope I ne
13、ver have to do that again. ” Cheer up! It doesnt 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 doi
14、ng 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. Dont talk over their heads, an
15、d dont 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 e through so that you make per

In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! Youre not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens. 26. The

The title for this passage may be _. A. Do Not Make a Long Speech B. How to Give a Good Speech C. How
20、 to Prepare for a Speech D. Try to Enjoy a Speech BSolar energy for your home is ing. It can help you as a single home owner. It can help the whole country as well. Whether or not solar energy can save your money depends on many things. Where you live is one factor and the type of home you have is a
21、nother. Things like insulation (绝缘材料), present energy costs, and the type of system you buy are added factors. Using solar energy can help save our precious fuel. As you know, our supplies of oil and gas are very limited. There is just not enough on hand to meet all our future energy needs. Sooner o
22、r later Mother Nature will say thats all. The only way we can delay hearing those words is by starting to save energy now and by using other sources, like the sun. We wont have to worry about the suns running out of energy for another several billion years or so. Besides, the sun doesnt offer as man
23、y problems as other energy sources. For example, fossil fuel(矿物燃料) adds to already high pollution levels. With solar energy, we will still need sources of energy, but we wont need as much. That means we can cut down on our pollution problems.With all these good points, why dont we use more solar pow
24、er? There are many reasons for this. The biggest reason is money. Until now, it was just not practical for a home owner to put in a solar unit. There were cheaper sources of energy. All that is changing now. Solar costs are starting to equal the costs of oil and electricity. Experts say that gas, oi
25、l and electricity prices will continue to rise. The demand for electricity is increasing rapidly. But new power plants will use more gas, oil or coal. Already in some places the supply of electricity is being rationed (限量供应). Solar energy is now in its infancy (初期). It could soon grow to bee a major

27、e our precious fuel33. The sun is an endless source of energy, and it will not run out of energy for _. A. several million years B. several hundred years C. several billion years D. several thousand years 34. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Energy from coal would not pollute our living
28、 environment. B. Energy from natural gas would not pollute our living environment. C. Energy from the sun would not pollute our living environment. D. Energy from oil would not pollute our living environment.35. Solar energy is now in its infancy, _. A. but in the future it will bee an important par
29、t of our nations energy supply B. so we will build more power plants C. and the supply of electricity will be rationed throughout the country D. so we dont need it CSome people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together, they will
30、learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international petitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred(憎恨). There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport enco
31、urages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests. One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey(曲棍球) final. There had be
32、en noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents victory was unfair. Their manager was in great anger when he said, “This wasnt hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.”
