It may help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planneD. Fortunately, such moments are usually not obvious to the listeners. Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. They hear only what the speaker does say. If you lose your place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to stop at a certain point, no one will be any the wiser. When such moments occur, don't worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happeneD. Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesn't really matter. If you have ever listened to Martin Luther King's famous speech---"I have a Dream", you may notice that he stumbles(结巴) over his words twice during the speech. Most likely, however, you don't remember. Why? Because you were fixing your attention on his message rather than on his way of speech-making. People care a lot about making a mistake in a speech because they regard speech-making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition. But, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a perfect performer. They are looking for a well-though-out speech that expresses the speaker's ideas clearly and directly. Sometimes a mistake or two can actually increase a speaker's attractiveness by making him more human. As you work on your speech, don't worry about being perfect. Once you free you mind of this, you will find it much easier to give your speech freely. 56. What would be the best title for the passage? A. How to Be a Perfect Speaker B. How to Make a Perfect Speech C. Don't Expect a Perfect Speech D. Don't Expect Mistakes in a Speech 57. The underlined part in the first paragraph means that no one will ______. A. be smarter than you B. notice your mistakes C. do better than you D. know what you are talking about 58. You don't remember obvious mistakes in a speech because ______. A. your attention is on the speaker’s message B. you don't know what the speaker plans to say C. you don't fully understand the speech D. you find the way of speech-making more important 59. It can be inferred from the passage that ______. A. giving a speech is like giving a performance B. one or two mistakes in a speech may not be bad C. the listeners should pay more attention to how a speech is made D. the more mistakes a speaker makes, the more attractive he will bE.
