Section A Directions For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A B C and D Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context Generally speaking most people are frightened of making public speech Losing face is the greatest 50 and failing to appeal to the audience comes a close second Most people have plenty of insecurities and public speaking seems like a situation that will bring all the 51 feelings out Some people are always expected of highly and they will be under pressure to be 52 Then they may still feel unsatisfied with their performance although the general public have already been 53 by their speech While lively people will feel less fear it does not mean they will 54 do the job better On the contrary in many cases some very shy people do 6 manage to present 55 speeches In fact 56 is not what mainly decides whether you do well at a public speech Regardless of what you are like in real life the key seems to be to act yourself Doing public speaking as actual acting performing the lines of a character other than yourself does not make you succeed While politicians may limit damage by having carefully prepared acting again and again 57 there is always a hidden 58 among the audience that what they say might not be correct Likewise many speeches of great speakers in history are far from 59 The audience may on the spot be persuaded by them while afterwards they even can t remember what they have heard and have a feeling of being 60 Although as Earl Spencer proved at his sister Princess Diana s funeral it is possible both to prepare every word and to 61 naturally prepared speeches rarely 62 in public But only being yourself doesn t help get rid of all the fears either If you spoke as if you were in your own kitchen it would be too 63 The distance between the speaker and the audience would be too short to strengthen the need for normal communication and information exchange which are the main 64 of a public speech 50 A concernB preferenceC resistanceD sorrow 51 A eagerB unsafeC specialD usual 52 A reasonableB anxiousC perfectD critical 53 A preservedB impressedC worriedD prevented 54 A necessarilyB readilyC appropriatelyD extensively 55 A terribleB unforgettableC suitableD scientific 56 A skillB preparationC knowledgeD personality 57 A in advanceB in realityC in controlD in result

red yellow and brown each fall Why the colors are better some years than others Or even why leaves are green in the first place Once each year during the fall season the trees of many regions in America produce a great color show that signals the death of the leaves and an inactive winter period for the tree Trees like all living things need food and energy to live and grow Leaves are a tree s food factories leaves contain a green pigment 色素 called chlorophyll which has the ability to absorb energy from sunlight and turn the water and minerals into starch 淀粉 which is food for the tree During the summer months when there are long days and pleasant temperatures the leaves are busy making food but as the days of sunlight grow shorter and the weather becomes cooler the leaf factories begin to slow down until the process of making food stops completely The green chlorophyll is no longer needed and slowly disappears from the leaves The reds yellows and browns of fall leaves then appear Where do the colors come from They are there all the time Leaves contain yellow orange and brown pigments that are always present in the leaf but remain hidden by the strong chlorophyll green in summer The color appears only when the green chlorophyll fades As the leaves change color the tree pulls any remaining food out of them storing it to survive during the winter months The red shades of some fall leaves appear when the sugar produced by the leaves gets trapped in them rather than returning to the tree The sugar dissolves 溶解 in the sap 树液 of the leaf and turns it red orange or purple Some leaves have no color pigments except for the chlorophyll and just turn a dull shade of brown before drying up In very warm climates many broad leaved trees drop only some of their leaves at a time and appear green all year round The intensity of the fall colors varies from year to year depending on the fall weather conditions With frosty weather the colors may not be as varied Cloudy rainy weather produces dull shades of red Warm humid conditions produce brightly colored but speckled 有斑点的 leaves Dry sunny fall weather produces the most wonderful colors of all 10 72 The author

them D he hopes the reader will find the answers to them 73 A The tree freezes in cold weather B The leaves store water and minerals C The tree begins to die in the winter D The leaves stop making food 74 What does chlorophyll do for a tree s leaves A It makes the leaves drop from the tree B It makes the leaves taste sweet C It makes the leaves red gold and brown D It makes the leaves green 75 During the fall how does cloudy rainy weather affect leaf color A It creates more dull leaves with speckles B It creates more leaves that are red C It creates more orange and yellow leaves D It
