At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planned. Fortunately, such moments are usually not obvious to the listeners, why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say, they hear only what the speaker does say. If you lose your place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to pause at a certain point, no one will be any the wiser. When such moments occur, dont worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happened.Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesnt really matter. If you have ever listened to Martin Luther Kings famous speech“I have a dream”, you may notice that he stumbles over his words twice during the speech. Most likely, however, you dont remember. Why? Because you were fixing your attention on his message rather than on his way of speech-making. People care a lot about making mistakes in a speech because they regard speech-making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition. But, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a perfect performance. They are looking for a well-thought-out speech that expresses the speakers ideas clearly and directly. Sometimes a mistake or two can actually increase a speakers attractiveness by making him more human.As you work on your speech, dont worry about being perfect. Once you free your mind of this, you will find it much easier to give your speech freely.28.The underlined part in the first paragraph means that no one will _.A.be smarter than you B.do better than youC.notice your mistakes D.know what you are talking about29.You dont remember obvious mistakes in a speech because _.A.you find the way of speech-making more important B.you dont fully understand the speechC.you dont know what the speaker plans to sayD.you attention is on the content 30.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A.one or two mistakes in a speech may not be badB.giving a speech is like giving a performanceC.the listeners should pay more attention to how a speech is madeD. the more mistakes a speaker makes, the more attractive he will be31.What would be the best title for the passage?A.How to Be a Perfect Speaker B. How to Make a Perfect SpeechC.Dont Expect Mistakes in a Speech D. Dont Expect a Perfect SpeechDA warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good nights sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod offif it is milked from a cow at night. Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety. The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night. Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food. Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer. While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night. Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax. Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.32. According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_. A. started sleep more easily B. were more anxious C. were less active D. woke up later33. Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?A. Its been tested on mice for ten times.

Fat, Sugar and Health C. An Experiment on Mice D. Milk Drinking and Health35. How does the author support the theme of the text? A. By giving examples. B. By stating arguments. C.
