Many people have a fear(害怕) of public speaking. According to a study, it has an influence on 3 in every 4 people. This fact is surprising and worrying, as most jobs require some speaking ability. The following will help you to make a speech better.
Write note cards. Write main ideas on your cards. Don’t write details. Put in some fun facts, questions, and other activities on the cards to share with the class. Don’t look at your note cards for a long time while speaking. If necessary, you’re only going to have a quick look at the card for information, not read every word.
Smile at your class. When it comes time to speak, there’s nothing that draws your class into your speech than a good old-fashioned smile. Be happy, because you’re about to teach your class something they didn’t know before. Studies have shown that smiles are infections. That means once you smile, it’s hard for everyone else not to smile. So if you want your speech to go off well, smile. That will make everyone smile and maybe those smiles will make you actually smile.
Make eye contact. Nothing is more boring than listening to a speaker who looks at the floor or at note cards. Relax. Your class is made up of your friends and you talk to them all the time. Talk the same way now. Have a look at every person in the classroom at least once. That way, everyone will feel like you’re communicating with them. Also, you know you’ll look like what you’re talking about.
Use hand motions. Move your hands along as you talk, using them to express your key points and keep the class interested. It will also lead your nervous energy into a better place.
According to the passage, ______ of people might fear to speak in public.

A.100 percent B.75 percent
C.50 percent D.25 percent

How many points are mentioned in the passage?

A.Three. B.Four. C.Five. D.Six.

In Paragraph 3 of the passage, “smiles are infections” means ______.

A.smiles can be passed on
B.it’s hard to smile
C.smiles keep people fit
D.people should smile every day

A habit is any action that we have performed so often that it becomes something that we do almost without thinking. Some of them are thought to be bad habits. People spend countless hours and dollars each year trying to get rid of these bad habits but often fail. Why? Change is hard work and there is no shortcut to achieve it. However, there is still some advice for you to follow.
First, look at why you do it. In other words, what’s the result of doing this thing? If your bad habit is shouting at people when you are unhappy or under pressure, what do you get from it? It may make you feel a little better for the moment. Or maybe you have a bad habit of leaving your homework undone. The result could be that you get more time to spend on the Internet!
Next, take a look on the other hand. What are you losing because of your habit? Shouting at other people is a bad habit because it makes people around you feel bad and unhappy. Leaving your homework undone is a bad habit because you may be punished by your teacher. Having more Internet time means that you are losing the chance to learn the things that you need to learn. When you think that way, you’ll find that it’s not wise to keep your bad habit! Now it is time to make a decision. What will you choose? I’m sure you will choose to do what you think is more important.
From the first paragraph we know that __________.

A.a habit is a terrible thing that we can never change
B.people spend countless hours and dollars to get rid of habits
C.none of the people who try to break bad habits are successful
D.though it is difficult, we can still do something about our bad habits

The underlined sentence “there is no shortcut to achieve it” means that ________.

A.it is not easy to get rid of bad habits
B.there is a long way and a short way
C.something dangerous may happen
D.we must cut it in a short time.

According to the reading, if you want to get rid of your habits, you have to _____.

A.talk to others when you are in low spirits
B.know why you do what you do
C.finish your homework first
D.spend less time on the Internet

Which of the following does NOT happen because of a bad habit according to the reading?

A.You are punished later.
B.Making people around you feel unhappy.
C.You feel a little better after shouting at others.

To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade (遮蔽) against the sun.
Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(权力). In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it became a symbol of power.
Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.
Ancient people first used umbrellas as _________.

A.a symbol of honor B.protection against the sun
C.a symbol of power D.protection against the rain

According to the passage, the umbrella was probably first used in ancient ______.

A.Egypt . B.Babylon C.Rome D.China

The underlined word royal might mean _          in Chinese.

A.皇室的 B.富裕的 C.中产的 D.平民的

According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A.The ancient Greeks used the umbrella in their daily life.
B.Europeans hardly used the umbrella during the middle ages.
C.The umbrellas for women were made colorful in ancient times.
D.The style of the umbrella hasn't changed a lot since it was invented

  This passage is mainly about ___________.

A.the sales of the umbrella
B.the differences among umbrellas
C.the invention of the umbrella
D.the history and the use of the umbrella

When we think of chocolate, many of us think of candy bars and sweet. But this is not how chocolate comes to us. In fact, it comes from the cacao tree that is found in the tropical(热带的) forests of Central and South America, because cacao beans need to grow in a hot and humid climate (湿热的气候) . The Mayas knew that they could get food and drink from the tree. The Aztecs often took the cacao beans and broke them into pieces in hot water, making a drink that was delicious and energy-producing for the body.
When Columbus and Cortez came to America, they shipped cacao beans back to Spain. However, at first few people accepted the drink because the taste was strange. When Columbus gave the information back to the Spanish Queen and King that one cup of chocolate from the cacao beans could provide a whole day’s energy for a man without the need for other food, attitudes(态度) quickly changed.
The need and the cost for chocolate produced by the cacao beans rose sharply. Soon all Europeans had fallen in love with chocolate. But chocolate was so expensive at that time that only the riches could afford this confection (甜食). At first, too much chocolate made people sick because more than half of the cacao bean is formed from fat, and few people knew how to remove the too much fat content(脂肪含量). Perhaps that is how we arrived at the expression, “Too much of a good thing can be bad for you.”

Millvina Dean, Titanic’s last survivor, died on May 31, 2009 in Southampton. She was 97 and had been in poor health for several weeks.
The youngest of the ship’s 705 survivors, Ms. Dean was only 9 weeks old when the Titanic hit an iceberg (冰山) on the night of April 14, 1912. She survived with her mother and her 2-year-old brother. Mr. Dean, 29, was taking his family to a new life in Kansas City. He planned to run a tobacconist’s (烟草商) shop there. He was among more than 1,500 passengers and crew members who died in the sinking.
Ms. Dean never married and spent her working life in Southampton. For many years after the sinking, she never spoke of it to people she met or worked with, partly because she remembered nothing about it and partly because she did not want to be seen as drawing attention to herself.
But that changed after Sep. 1, 1985 when the wreck (残骸) of the Titanic was discovered. That set off a wave of interest in the ship, especially after the movie Titanic. “They found the wreck and after they found the wreck, they found me,” she said.
In the last 20 years of her life, she went to gatherings in the USA, Canada and a number of European countries to take part in events related to the sinking. She said she had learned from her mother about what happened during the sinking.
Ms. Dean had never seen Titanic. She explained she was unwilling to be reminded of what had happened to her father.
How old was Millvina Dean when the Titanic sank?
__________________________________________________________
Why did the Deans take the Titanic?

How many times had Ms. Dean ever seen the movie Titanic?

Parents who know what’s going in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them.
