As I ______ the whiteboard, I looked at the blonde haired girl next to me, trying to ______ what she was writing. ______ I tried my best, she went faster than I could understand. Impossible to understand. Why me? Why couldn’t I wrap my mind around this strange concept that all the other kids could understand?

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.

As is known to us, Washington University in St. Louis became the first college in the United States to ban ( 禁 止 ) selling bottled water in 2009. Since then, more than a dozen small colleges and schools have done the same. The ban isn’t because the schools don’t want students to have easy access to water. Instead, the goal is to encourage students to bring reusable bottles to save money and, more importantly, to save the environment.
Many people believe that producing and using bottled water not only wastes money but also harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. are among the best in the world. These people believe that water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access to filling stations are a better choice.
But the makers of bottled water argue that plastic bottles make up a small portion of the nation’s total waste. They say it’s unfair to single out ( 单独挑出) their product when so many other items are packaged ( 包装) in plastic containers, and what’s more, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that are also sold at school.
What do you think: Should sales of bottled water be banned from schools? We want to hear your opinion. Write a 200-word response. Send it to tfkasks4you@timeforkids.com. Your response may be published in a future issue of Time For Kids. Please include your grade level and contact information for your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline (截止时间) for responding is December 31, 2019.
