When I was a ten-year-old girl, I was once asked to deliver a speech titled “A Real Test in My Life”. To talk before the whole class! Just imagine how  (terrible) shy I was the moment I thought of that with so many eyes fixed upon me. I had no other (choose), though. First I was to draft the speech and that was just a piece of cake for me, because I was a good writer--something to pride myself in. But the hard part  (lie) in my oral presentation; to read from  paper was not allowed; I had to give the speech  my memory and in front of such a big audience! A real trial began when I stood on the platform with my legs (tremble) and my mind blank. How much time had passed by, I didn’t know. My listeners were still waiting, patiently and without any signs of rushing me. Gradually I found  back, giving out my speech with difficulty. Finally I finished. After seemed to be a hundred years, I found my audience applauding. I made it! From then on, my fear of talking before an audience disappeared. Actually with my confidence building  , I now turn out to be a great speaker. Looking back, I know the greatest difficulty on our way to success is our fear; overcome it,    we will be able to achieve our goals.
