26、 We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don't do a very good job. However, you have to give a speech and you are frightened. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, "Thank Goodness, it's over. 【1】 I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! It isn't that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. 【2】.
What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Organize your material and use as many examples as possible. Never forget your audience. Don't talk over their heads, and don't talk down to them. 【3】 They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. 【4】 And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! Are you ready now? 【5】
A. Don't look at the audience during your speech.
B. Talk about whatever you are familiar with.
C. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech.
D. Say what you have to say and then stop.
E. I'm just not good at public speaking.
F. Give it a try and see what happens.
G. Treat your audience with respect.
27、When you first step into a classroom, one of the first things to catch your eye is usually a list of rules. However, there's one rule that you just can't help but question: No electronics. In reality, the classrooms in our school have an aversion to modern technology, so electronic devices（设备）such as computers and cellphones are not allowed, for they are thought to have a bad influence on children's attention at class. However, is it possible that these devices could actually be used to improve our learning experience?
As is known to us, these years we have spent so much time talking about the disadvantages of modern technology that we've failed to see their advantages in a classroom. Many people of the 80's and 90' still remember learning about history by playing the game TheOregonTrail, and many of us 2000's teenagers remember games such as BrainAge that encouraged our cognitive（认知的）development.
It doesn't end with educational games, either. Take Minecraft for example. While a parent may complain（抱怨）that their child spends too much time playing the hit video game, what they probably fail to realize is that their child's brain is being enriched with information allowing creativity and problem-solving. Children who play on public or local computers may also pick up on social skills. For older children, creating computer games can be a great introduction to coding（编码）. Many schools have begun to bring the game into their classrooms.
In the end, it's important that we welcome technological development in our classrooms and see the educational value in having fun. School no longer must mean sitting down for hours in front of a pictureless textbook. Instead, school can be a place where children are able to see learning as a lifelong experience.
【1】What does the underlined part "have an aversion to" in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Change.

D．Overuse.
【2】Some computer games are mentioned to show________.
A．parents know little about computer games
B．children can create better computer games
C．children can learn from computer games
D．parents only welcome educational games
【3】What is the author's attitude towards electronic devices?
A．He is against them.
B．He is in favor of them.
C．He is uninterested in them.
D．He is uncertain about them.
28、Living on the Florida Emerald Coast, people view a hurricane as a common thing. So it is not unusual for a family to have several full gas cans and bottled water stored in their houses all summer.
Though unwilling to evacuate from a hurricane, on September 15,my family was forced to leave our home for my grandfather's house several miles away. We spent the early part of that evening watching the hurricane draw closer on the Weather Channel. Around nine o'clock, a loud sound shook the house, turned over the roof and carried it off. Soon came an indoor rainstorm.
Realizing the damage, my grandfather began to be afraid. The storm had started, but he still ran out into the heavy rain and wind to see how much of the roof was left. We got him back inside. I had never seen him so scared. Mom finally asked him to lie down in his room.
The leak had progressed rapidly. It soon became a race against time to protect what was saved. Some people may think it necessary to save material things, but I hoped to save those items with emotional value, such as the photos. I still feared the storm, but I more feared the influence it brought.
The next morning, it started to clear up. Thankfully, my family weathered the storm, though the same could not be said for the house. Only the wooden beams remained, but inside many of his things were safe. My mom and I had worked tirelessly through the night.
It was late, but we were still unwilling to go to bed. We discussed the rebuilding of the house. Under the beautiful sky, we suggested looking after my grandfather more often in the future. After this disaster, I realized the truth that the hurricane itself was not so terrible if we loved each other.
【1】Why do the people store full gas cans and bottled water?

29、There are two main types of office layouts used by most companies around the world: Landscape Office and Enclosed Office. A landscape office lacks privacy, however, this office layout is more beneficial than an enclosed office for employees to improve work efficiency and productivity.
Some people might desire an undisturbed workplace. According to the survey collected from a company with the two kinds of office layouts, most of managers prefer a workplace where they can concentrate on their work and make a clear thinking. However, managers that possess their own enclosed offices might have the feeling of being distant from their clerks, which leads to high pressure. Meanwhile, employees tend to be nervous when they have conversations with their managers in an obviously hierarchical(等级制的) environment. In contrast, a landscape office makes it easier and more pleasant for employees to communicate with their managers or their colleagues; this would result in speeding up work efficiency and productivity.
Besides, greater interaction is beneficial for employees to build up friendship in a landscape office. This can be proved by the experiment of Brookes and Kaplan. They recorded the attitudes and opinions of 120 employees toward their enclosed office before they moved to the landscape office, and then after nine months they were tested again. The researchers discovered that those employees performed positive changes in group sociability. When people have better group sociability, they experience a better team work and efficient cooperation, which surely promotes work productivity.
Some opponents claim that a landscape office would lead to the decline of the value of work satisfaction and motivation from employees. However, the result from other researchers remained controversial; in their opinion there are several factors which affect job satisfaction and motivation. 600 Canadian federal government department workers who were housed at a modern landscape office and were surveyed gave both negative and positive feedback. They admitted that they felt the sense of belonging to a team or a working community, which mainly contributes to job satisfaction. Motivation is also increased by a sense of responsibility for and loyalty to a team.
Admittedly, there are some advantages that only enclosed offices possess. However, a landscape office can combine the features of the traditional enclosed office, for example, designing the independent meeting room to decrease noise from discussion. Although the benefits of a landscape office outweigh those of an enclosed office, which layout is better should be decided by the characteristics of the people and the type of work they do.
【1】What is mainly talked about in the passage?
A．Colleague cooperation and its motivation.
B．Group sociability and its productivity.
C．Working environment and its effect.
D．Office privacy and its atmosphere.
【2】What has the significant effect on productivity according to Paragraph 2?
A．Job satisfaction.
B．Relaxed atmosphere.
C．Group sociability.
D．Undisturbed workplace.
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Enclosed office leads to individual creativity.
B．Different working styles in enclosed office is encouraged.
C．Landscape office contributes to effective conversations.
D．Frequent communication in landscape office results in high pressure.
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards office layouts?
A．Objective.
B．Casual.
C．Optimistic.
D．Sceptical.
