How to Speak in Meetings
Making your voice heard is one way to gain respect in your school or workplace. Yet, you may feel like you have nothing new to say or contribute. Here are some ways to make you feel ready for a meeting.
1.Having some ideas about what you want to say already planned out can help you to feel more confident in a meeting. Try writing down a few ideas for questions you can ask or ideas you can bring up in the meeting2.
Be the first speaker. If you want to speak yet somehow talk your way out of it, try being the first to say something. 3.Make a point to jump in first and create discussion instead of delaying your comments.
Speak confidently. 4.Make your words meaningful. Even if you don’t feel confident, show confidence in what you’re saying and how you’re saying it. Speak clearly and try to avoid fillers like “ uh” or “um”.
Make a brief point. There’s no need, to ramble on (啰嗦地说) to make sure that you’re heard or that people understand you. 5. Make what you say memorable, not time-wasting. Take some time to form your thoughts and ideas, and then say it in a clear and effective way.
A.Make sure you turn to your teachers for help.
B.Focus on speaking clearly and with fewer words.

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike regular gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room is equipped with a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. There’s no shower or washbasin.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by smartphone application, book a room in advance and then need to scan (扫描) a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 0.2 yuan per minute.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within two weeks since it was founded, the company has already got two rounds of funding valued over 100 million yuan, Yicai Global reports. The idea of the shared fitness experience is not entirely nascent. Last December, the Shanghai-based technology company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident investors are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to contribute around 10% to the country’s GDP by 2020.

A.Offering open spaces. B.Standing in the living zone.
C.Holding one person at a time. D.Having some advanced equipment.
2.What can we learn about the shared gym room from the text?
A.Users can have a shower in it after exercise.
B.Users who want to use it need a smartphone.
C.Users who use it first need to pay for 99.2 yuan.
D.Users’ privacy can’t be protected while they are exercising.
3.What does the underlined word “nascent” probably mean in Paragraph 5?
A.Simple. B.Popular. C.Satisfying. D.New.
4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A.To introduce shared gym rooms.
