Fill in the blanks according to the passage. Only one word for each blank.

It was too late at night when an old man came to a small town. He found a small hotel and wanted to stay there for the night. After he went into his room, the owner said to his wife, "Look at his bag, there must be much money in it. Let's take it away when he is asleep, shall we?"

"No, no." said the woman, "He must look for his bag tomorrow morning. If he can't find it, he'll telephone the police. "They thought for a few minutes. Then the woman had an idea, "We have forgetful grass. Why not put some into his food? If he has the food, he will forget to take his bag away. "The old man had the food with the forgetful grass and went to bed. The next morning, when the owner got up, he found the door open, and the man had left with the bag. He was angry and woke his wife up, "What a fool! Your forgetful grass isn't useful at all."

"No, I don't think so He must forget something." she said. "Oh! I remember now!" cried out the man suddenly, "He forgot to pay for the night."

From the story we know the owner of the hotel wanted to the old man's bag when he slept. But his wife with him, and she up with a good idea that they put some forgetful grass into the food that the old man would forget his bag. The forgetful grass worked. The old man really forgot something-he didn't to pay for the night.

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} I don't think I can talk fluently because it's difficult for me to remember all the words.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#} When I come face to face with the audience, where should my eyes fall upon? Do I have to look front, or look around from time to time?
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} When I am talking, I can't help waving my hands, for I think it can help me express what I want to say better. But my classmates say I look funny and foolish by doing this .
{#blank#}4{#/blank#} I know that it's not right to speak fast. But I am afraid that I can't finish my talk in the given time if I speak slowly.
{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Should I talk in American English or British English?

A．Look at the audience (观众) .
Looking at and talking to one person in the audience helps keep you natural, but it feels foolish talking to only one person. Speak to that person as long as 15 seconds and then change another one.

B．Don't speak too fast!
The audience have a hard time understanding what they hear. They need your help. Slow down, pause(停顿) and guide the audience through your talk. Remember that you should help the audience understand what you are saying.

C．Low your voice!
Make your voice a little lower than normal. Listeners like to a relatively(相对) deep voice.

D．Talk but not recite(背诵) .

When you talk, try to be as natural as possible. Don't try to memorize your words and read or recite them to your audience. You can use short notes to help you remember the important points.
E. Use simple words.
You should know you and most of the people you talk to are different in many ways . Some of them may not know what you are talking about. Then speak to them on their languages.
F. Word works!
Concentrate on what you want to say. If you are always paying attention to gestures(手势).

It's true that there are some differences between American English and British English, but they'll not cause much difficulty for listeners, so just speak the way you're used to.

Not only adults(成年人) but also teenagers have problems in their life. Here is a survey showing the main problems of teenagers.

They feel stressed because they have too much homework to do both at school and at home. They have a lot of exams to take. And parents usually send them to different classes at weekends. They don't have their own time to do what they are interested in.

Now more and more teenagers are getting short-sighted. They often read in bed or keep reading for a long time without having a rest. Some are crazy about playing computer games. Some spend too much time (watch) TV. Another serious problem among teenagers is that many of them are becoming fat. They eat too much junk food and take little exercise.

I think teenagers should think of ways to deal with (处理) the problems. They should make a plan for study and hobbies and find time to relax as much as possible.

Future and Today

It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure(珍惜)every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.

There is an old English saying: "Gain time, gain life." Then what's time？ Time is something that we can't see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeable. We always say "Time is money", but time is even more precious(珍贵的)than money, because when money is spent , we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless(无价的).

We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.

As we all know, "Time and tide wait for no man." If you waste today, you will regret(后悔)tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember:" No pains, no gains." Today's hard work is the cause of tomorrow's harvest(收获).
