21、Bruno was a boy of eight. His father worked in a cinema and his mother worked in a shop. He lived not far from his school. He always walked there and walked home. On his way to school, he had to pass a playground（操场）. It was very wet after it rained. One day, when he got home, his clothes were all wet. His mother became angry and said, "Don't play in the water on your way home from school!"

On the next day Bruno came home with wet and dirty clothes. His mother became even angrier. "I'll tell your father if you come back wet again," said his mother. "He'll punish(惩罚)You, you know."

The third day the little boy was dry when he came home.

"You're a good boy today", his mother said happily. "You didn't play in the water."

22、Do you have a fear (恐惧) of public speaking? Do you ever get nervous when speaking in front of a group of people?

I remember I used to be deathly afraid of public speaking. My legs would get weak as I made my way in front of the audience. My mouth would tremble (发抖) as I would begin to say the first few words. I would avoid eye contact (避免眼神接触) unless I find someone with a smiling face, there is a way to overcome a fear of public speaking.

Understand the cause of the fear

Find out why it’s a fear in the first place. The main reason is the fear of being embarrassed (窘迫的). Most of you are afraid of being laughed at, doing anything foolish or having the audience judge (判断) you. When there are other people who might judge you or think badly of you, this causes you to get nervous.

Change your mindset (心态)

Try not to think about yourself and what the audience might think of you. Instead, think about the audience and how you can best deliver (传递) your message across. Then, you will be able to get over this fear.

Practice

It’s best to practice in front of a supporting (支持的) group of people. This will not only make public speaking easier but also help you gain confidence. The more you practice it, the easier it will get.

The way I was able to get over my fear of speaking came in two periods (时期). The first period was in high school. I entered the speech class, and all I wanted was to get passed. I didn’t care about winning. Even when I forgot what to say, I didn’t get nervous. The next period was during my job as a trainer. My job was to motivate (激励) people. So gradually, my focus went from thinking about myself to not caring about that, and finally to thinking about my audience. In the two periods, my mindset changed from the mindset of fear to the mindset of power.

So overcoming a fear of public speaking comes down to having the right mindset and practice.

A．Try to think about how to avoid eye contact.

B．Find out why the audience laugh at you or judge you.

C．Think more about yourself when you make a public speech.

23、   Joseph has written a letter to his cousins, James and Susan. Here is the letter.

Dear James and Susan,

I am writing to you again because I am at home in bed. I have a cold recently and I am unable to go to school. I’ve got a fever and a bad headache as well. In addition, I’m always thirsty, probably as a result of the fever. But, with a lot of effort, I’m writing a letter to you.

The weather here in Toronto is horrible. I am sure the weather is much better in Hong Kong. Do you agree? The snow came a bit early this year and it was freezing cold. It’s surprising to see kids playing in the snow happily and building “castles” and snowmen this morning. A few of them made snowballs by pressing snow together and threw them at each other.

I am going to have my examination soon, I’m worried about it because I’m too sick to get out of bed to hold my text-books. What’s more, I haven’t attended school for nearly one week. I have to work hard to catch up with my classmates.

I have got a new mate recently. That is Bobby, our cat. Uncle Tom gave him to me as my birthday present. He is rather disobedient and he runs here and there from time to time. However, I’m glad to have him as my friend at the moment.

Please write to me if you have time.

Yours,

Joseph
