In what ways can you organize the body of your speech logically and effectively？ （)

When you close your eyes and try to think of the shape of your body, what you imagine (or rather, what you feel) is quite different from what you see when you open your eyes and look in the mirror. The image you feel is much vaguer than the one you see. And if you lie still, it is quite hard to imagine yourself as having any particular size or shape.

When you move, when you feel the weight of your arms and legs, the natural resistance of the objects around you, the "felt" image of yourself starts to become clearer. It is almost as if it were created by your own actions and the feelings they cause.

The image you create for yourself has rather strange proportions: certain parts feel much bigger than they look. If you get a hole in one of your teeth, it feels enormous; you are often surprised by how small it looks when you inspect it in the mirror. But although the "felt" image may not have the shape you see in the mirror, it is much more important. It is the image through which you recognize your physical existence in the world. In spite of its strange proportions, it is all one piece, and since it has a consistent right and left and top and bottom, it allows you to locate new feelings when they occur. It allows you to find your nose in the dark and point to a pain.

If the felt image is damaged for any reason--if it is cut in half or lost as it often is after certain strokes, which wipe out recognition of one entire side--these tasks become almost impossible. What is more, it becomes hard to make sense of one's own visual appearance. If one half of the felt image is wiped out or injured, the patient stops recognizing the affected part of his body. It is hard for him to find the location of feelings on that side, and, although he feels the doctor's touch, he locates it as being on the undamaged side.

In which of the following situations will you find your image most vague?

A．When looking into the mirror.

B．When lying in bed with closed eyes.

C．When standing.

D．When walking.

How the Body Keeps the Same Temperature

The temperature of your body should be always just the same, no matter whether the weather is hot or cold. That is why the doctor uses his thermometer when you are sick. When you are well, your temperature is ninety-eight and six tenths degrees. If he finds it(51) than that, it is a sure sign that something is wrong.

The body keeps the same temperature all the time, because it balances (平衡) the heat it produces and(52) off. It is always burning up food and producing heat. It can produce heat faster when it needs to or give off heat faster when it becomes too warm. Let's see(53) this happens.

The heat of your body is given off chiefly through the skin. When you are(54), your skin is tight and shows "goose flesh". When you get chilly (寒冷的),you must dance around to keep warm or(55) you will shiver (颤抖).(56) your muscles begin to work, burn up fuel, and produce more heat. It is not(57) to shiver, so you usually prefer warming up by exercise, or put(58) more clothes to keep heat in.

When you are warm, the skin is loose and soft. It is so supplied(59) blood that heat is given off rapidly. If you get too hot, you begin to sweat, and(60) body heat is used in evaporating (蒸发) the moisture (潮湿) from your skin. You wear less clothing, too, in warm(61) or in a warm room, so that warmth can be given off freely. You feel you don't(62) exercising because your body is warm(63),and the extra heat produced by exercise makes you uncomfortable.

You can see from this why you(64) differently in different kinds of weather. In summer, when it is warm, you feel tired and lazy. You do not care to work or play, but enjoy lying and doing nothing. When you get out of doors in winter, the cold air makes you feel(65) You want to run and play.

A．taller

B．better

C．superior

D．higher

听力原文： When you're making a presentation, your posture can affect the quality of your voice. The way you stand, you know, the position of your head, neck and shoulders and feet and so on is important. Check that you feet are parallel and apart and you weight is slightly forward on your feet. Make sure that your knees are relaxed, as if you are tense your back will suffer. Pay special attention to your head. Look straight ahead and don't push your neck out or drop it on to your chest. I had a man come to see me once as he was constantly losing his voice. It was all due to his habit of sticking his neck forward which was putting pressure on his throat. He sounded quite squeaky when he spoke. What he should have been doing was keeping his ears in line with his shoulders. Your head should feel as though it's floating on top of your body! So watch that.

Now most of us feel quite nervous before we speak in public. You'll feel better if you spend some time dealing with the tension. It's a good idea to try and think about what it is that's making you feel this way, That way you can have some control over it. Next, try and locate the area of tension in your body. Often it's your neck or your shoulders. Then concentrate on massaging these parts and consciously trying to relax them. Believe me, it works!

Let's think about what you say, now. To maximize your performance make sure you are well-prepared. Look over your notes, practise what you want to say, preferably out loud, and then, perhaps most important of all, try to feel you really want to share your subject with your audience. If you feel and share your enthusiasm with them, you're more than half way there.

Remember that how people feel about you and what you are saying to them will depend on your body language. There are three main behaviour types: Passive, Aggressive and Assertive. You can use any of these types, although I think the assertive posture is one that suits most occasions best.

The passive body type has a withdrawn posture. You may fidget a bit with your hands and hair. In fact I remember a well-known politician who whenever he was speaking would constantly massage the top of his head. So be ware of those funny little manner isms. They can become intensely irritating to an audience.

If your posture is aggressive, however, you tend to be quite rigid. You could be constantly swinging your leg or crossing your arms and clenching your fists and the audience will fell uncomfortable. Your voice will often sound harsh or sharp and your audience may then feel quite aggressive towards you and that's something you don't want if your aim is to get them to see your point of view.

That brings me to the assertive posture. Now you're standing straight, feeling comfortable and calm with your arms hanging loosely at your sides. In this position there is minimal tension and your voice is full, clear and varied. You're a delight to listen to.

Finally, a few do's and don'ts when it comes to looking after your voice, especially before giving a speech or whatever. It's a bit obvious but avoid smoky areas, and alcohol, too. Drink plenty of fluids, especially things like fruit juice or even coffee or tea and keep your throat moist while you're speaking. Also, interestingly enough, stop eating too many dairy products when you have a cold. It can make you sound worse—and also don't forget to use your lips and tongue carefully to make the words stand out clearly.

And just a final reminder. We can't always control the room we are speaking in. So, if a plane goes over, don't shout. Wait till it's gone. Don't battle with things you can't do anything about. If your throat feels uncomfortable, try not to cough violently or clear your throat. Just swallow instead. It doesn't always work but it's much better for your voice.

That's it, ladies and gentl

A．keep your knees straight

B．keep your feet apart

C．keep your head still
