to dance with me around the table My mother laughed at us and told us dinner would get cold But my father said Dinner can wait And then he sang out Roll out the barrel let s have a barrel of fun I sang back Let s get those blues on the run We danced through the years But one night when I was 15 lost in some painful adolescent mood my father teased me to dance with him Come on he said Let s get those blues on the run I jumped out of the chair screaming Don t touch me I am sick of dancing with you The hurt on his face did not escape me I ran to my room tearfully We did not dance together after that night I found other partners and my father waited for me after dances sitting in his favorite chair I would say to him If you were so tired you should have gone to bed No no he d say I was

ofof PublicPublic SpeakingSpeaking Do you have a fear of public speaking For the longest time I had the same fear It s actually not that uncommon In fact various studies have shown that the fear of speaking in public is ranked 排列 higher than the fear of death I m sure there are plenty of ways of overcoming the fear of public speaking but what I will describe is what has worked for me 1 1 UnderstandUnderstand thethe causecause ofof thethe fearfear The first step in getting rid of your fear of speaking in public is to find out why it s a fear in the first place The main reason is the fear of being embarrassed This includes being laughed at doing anything foolish and having the audience judge you Do you get nervous when you are in a room by yourself Probably not It s only when there are other people people who might judge you or think badly of you that causes you to get nervous usually Knowing why you have this fear of being in front of an audience will help you figure out what to do to overcome the fear 2 2 ChangeChange youryour attitudeattitude In order to overcome the fear of public speaking you need to be able to change your attitude When you can go from thinking about yourself and what the audience might think of you to thinking about the audience and how you can best deliver your message across you will be able to conquer 征服 this fear 3 3 PracticePractice Although you may still get nervous even if you have done dozens of speeches the more you do it the easier it will get When you practice it s best to do it in front of a supporting group of people This will not only make public speaking easier but it will also help you gain confidence So overcoming fear of public speaking comes down to having the right attitude and practicing As you get more comfortable your focus will change from you to the audience Once your focus is on creating value for them your fear of public speaking will be gone 60 According to the passage when people speak in

speaking B get rid of the fear of public speaking beforehand C make sure there is a supportive group in the audience D think about what the audience will be interested in 63 According to the passage we can conclude that 用心 爱心 专心8 A we can easily overcome the fear of public speaking if we find out the reason B we should focus on ourselves in order to remove the fear of public speaking C we will have no fear of public speaking after we have done a lot of speeches D right attitude and good practice can help overcome the fear of public speaking C American schools are looking for ways to save money on bus transportation because of high fuel prices More children may have to walk ride their bikes or find other ways to get to school But as another effect of the high prices they may not have to go to school as often Some schools especially in rural areas are changing to a four day week That means longer days instead of the traditional Monday through Friday schedule Beginning in the fall students in the Maccray school district in Minnesota 美国明尼苏达州 will be in school Tuesday through Friday Each school day will be 65 minutes longer Greg Schmidt says the district expects to save about 65 000 dollars a year in transportation costs The district has about 700 students living in an area of 900 square kilometers State officials have approved the plan But it can only be in effect for three years They may change their mind before then if learning suffers In Custer South Dakota students have been going to school Monday through Thursday since 1995 An official says the change has saved an estimated 1 million dollars over just the past eight years But he sees other benefits too Students get more instructional time And activities that used to interfere 干扰 with classes are now held on non school days He says that in the future the growth of online classes could make it possible to require even fewer days in school High fuel prices are driving college students to take more online classes And in some states high school students can take them too A four day school week sounds like a great idea for students and teachers But working parents may have to pay for child care for that fifth day In agricultural areas though it can mean an extra day of helping on the family farm In New Mexico the first school district changed to a four day week in 1974 because of the Arab oil boycott Now 17 out of 89 districts use it The Lake Arthur School District has just 160 students Lake Arthur used a four day schedule for 12 years But a few years ago it went back to five days 64 We can learn from the passage that A students in Minnesota will soon have a four day school week B students will spend shorter time at school due to the change C students go to school Monday through Thursday in Custer South Dakota 用心 爱心 专心9 D all the students and teachers like the four day school week except parents 65 What is the author s attitude to the four day week A positive B objective C oppositive D
