| I'm going to show you how to be a public speaker that everyone wants to hear. Surprisingly most people are extremely scared of public speaking. I think it really boils down to the fact that most people don't get it taught in school or by their parents. I'm going to show you how you can look like a great speaker if you apply these techniques. If you really want to be liked by people as a speaker, telling stories is probably the best asset(资源) you can have. It is a very effective tool of communication that dates back to the cavemen paintings on walls. Human beings relate to stories they hear. You can use these stories to get a specific feeling out of your audience. You can tell a story where you emphasize how"heroic" you are and people will feel that way. You can also use a story to really get people involved in the speech because it is interesting. Throwing facts at people, no matter how accurate, isn't going to make people like you as a speaker. You should definitely have a call to action and a purpose to your speech. You don't want to end up being a speaker who just talks about stuff for the sake of talking. There needs to be an underlining purpose for everything said and a call to action on this purpose. If you're talking about hurricane relief, you have to have a purpose of what you're trying to get across and let people out there know how they can start helping. This is how to be a public speaker that everyone likes. Having some visual effects can really make you succeed as a great public speaker. If you're talking about poverty in a third world country, a picture is going to have a much bigger impact than any word. |

| The absolute best method that I have found to promote your product or business is to write articles and post them all over the Internet. Webmasters and publication editors are always searching for well researched and written articles that are relevant to their websites or publication themes. This creates a profitable opportunity for you. Editors and publishers don't have a strong need for good content. Each issue they publish must be filled with valuable, usable information that will appeal to their readers or subscribers'(订户) self interest. By writing and sending articles to the various websites and article directories on the Internet you will establish yourself as an expert on your topic of business, as well as gain the trust of your readers over time. As a result, your readers will be eager to buy your products and services or those you recommend to them. This is a very effective way to make name for yourself online. Articles can also build your link popularity. This is extremely important with search engines. Every time your article is published there should be a link back to your sales page where the reader can go to get more information. This will help the search engine ranking of your site. When website owners list your articles on their websites, your business exposure can be unlimited. Make sure your article provides information that is really useful to the reader. Make it interesting to read. Get to the point quickly. Use short paragraphs. If it's dull and boring, your reader will surely move on. Make sure you add a resource box at the end of your article. Use your resource box to promote your business. This is why you've written the article. |

| We all know that teenagers like to sleep late. But more and more research is showing that this is not just a preference-or even the result of late-night studying or instant messaging-but is rooted in their biological rhythms(节律). All of this would be little more than an interesting observation except that most high schools start so early, and so many teenagers are having a hard time staying awake. A recent article in The Times cited a National Sleep Foundation survey in which more than a quarter of the students reported that they fell asleep in class at least once a week. Researchers say this is true because youngsters - beginning around age 12 until they reach their mid-20s-only start producing melatonin, the sleep-inducing hormone(荷尔蒙), around 11:00 pm and that production lasts until about 7:00 am. In adults, melatonin lasts to around 4:00 am. Trying to wake up a teenager before 7:00 am is like trying to awake an adult before 4:00 am. The obvious remedy(补救)would be for high schools to start later-well, after 8:00 am. A handful of schools that have switched have reported beneficial results. School officials in Minneapolis say that attendance improved and students' grades rose slightly after they changed to start at 8:40 am several years ago. In Wilton, Conn., where the high school start time was pushed back to 8:20 am from 7:35 am, teachers and parents reported better student behavior and greater alertness. Surveys of students in both districts indicated that they did not use the later starts as an excuse to go to bed later. Numerous districts have considered the idea of later high school hours, only to drop it because of fierce adult opposition. Coaches complain that the later classroom hours in the afternoon would take time from their training programs and teams' success. School bus companies would be forced to change their schedules. And many parents complained that they would have to adjust their own schedules. Many schools officials say more research is needed. We're all for that and for remembering that the goal is to educate youngsters-and for that they need to be awake. |
| 1. According to the new research, teenagers like to sleep late because ______. |
| A. they have to study till late at night B. they waste too much rest time sending instant messages C. they prefer to stay in bed rather than get up early D. their biological systems make them do so |
| 2. We can learn from the second paragraph that melatonin makes _______. |
| A. youngsters awake after 7:00 am B. adults sleepy after 4:00 am C. youngsters sleepy before 7:00 am D. adults awake after 4:00 am |
| 3. The third paragraph is written to show that _____. |
| A. many high schools start after 8:00 am B. later high school start time made students go to bed late C. students don't go to bed late even though they have later high school hours D. later high school start time is a very effective measure |
| 4. According to the passage, who are fiercely against later high school hours? ① School team coaches. ② Many parents. ③ School teachers. ④ School bus companies. |
| A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ |
| 5. We can infer from the passage that the author's attitude towards later high school hours is _____. |
| A. positive B. negative C. indifferent D. unclear |

| It's natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave. When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you're happy to see them. But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Scientists have recently deal with these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, he or she might not believe what he or she sees if your body language doesn't match the feeling that your face shows. Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists. Previously, they had found that the tone of a person's voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice,"I'm so excited." When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies (with faces blurred out) that showed anger or fear. They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies. An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrows and a slightly open mouth. An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle, as if ready to fight. A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend. Using the pictures, the researchers asked people to quickly press a button that matched the correct facial emotion: anger or fear. When people looked only at faces, they chose the right emotion about 81 percent of the time. But when people looked at a mismatched picture-a scared face with an angry body, for example-they correctly guessed the emotion on the face only 64 percent of the time. These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly influences which emotion they read. So, your body language is important for telling people how you feel. And if you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages. |
