4.When it comes to public speaking,the most important thing is to speak clearly.You want the audience(61)to hear(hear) everything you have to say when giving public speeches,not to question your words later(62)becausethey couldn't hear you.A good public speaker is the person who knows(63)howto speak clearly.
Practice(64)makes(make) perfect.Try practicing in front of a mirror,in front of your friends,or even in front of your pet dogs if you need help.
(65)Use(use) the proper tone when speaking.Most people find it easy to slip into a monotone voice,where every word that comes out of their mouth sounds the same.Not only(66)doesthis bore the audience,but it also makes you hard to understand and follow.
Pronounce your words carefully and clearly.This means(67)using(use) the right pronunciation of words.If you have any questions on how a word is pronounced,ask for help beforehand.
Speak slowly so that the audience can hear you.If your natural speed is fast,practice speaking at a(68)slower(slow) pace than usual before your speech.
Project your voice when(69)needed(need).You don't need to scream at the audience,but your voice rises(70)slightly(slight)if people in the back of the room can't hear your speech.
5.American cities are similar to other cities around the world:In every country,cities reflect the values of the culture,American cities are changing,just American society is changing.
After World War II,the population of most large American cities decreased; however,the population in many Sun Belt cities increased.Los Angeles and Houston are cites where population moves to and from the city reflect the changing values of American society.In the late 1940s and early 1950s,city residents became wealthier.They had more children so they needed more space.They moved out of their apartments in the city to buy their own homes.They bought houses in the suburbs.
Now things are changing.The children of the people who left the cities in 1950s are now adults.Many unlike their parents want to live in the cities.They continue to move to Sun Belt cities and older ones of the Northeast and Midwest.Many young professionals are moving into the city.They prefer the city to the suburbs because their jobs are there,or they just enjoy the excitement and possibilities that the city offers.
This population shift is bringing problems as well as benefits.Countless poor people must leave their apartments in the city because the owners want to sell the buildings or make apartments for sale instead of for rent.In the 1950s,many poor people did not have enough money to move to the suburbs; now many of these same people do not have enough money to stay in the cities.
Only a few years ago,people thought that the older American cities were dying.Some city residents now see a bright new future.Others see only problems and conflicts.One thing is sure:many dying cities are alive again.

34.Why did American city residents want to live in the suburbs after World War II?B
A.Because cities contained the worst parts of society.
B.Because they were richer and needed more space.
C.Because older American cities were dying.

D.the population is decreasing in older American cities.
6.With more and more cars on the road,traffic jams are inevitable. Traffic jams can lead to increased accidents as there are more cars,with more people trying to get to their destination,all the while getting worse.Although it's impossible to avoid traffic jams altogether,there are some tips you can follow to reduce the amount of time on the road.
Check for traffic jams before you leave.You can listen to the radio for traffic news,or check on the Internet to get up-to-minute information on traffic.If the route you want to take is heavy with traffic,you can choose another.
Look for a different route all the time.Most traffic jams happen on busy roads.Using country roads could see you avoiding a lot of traffic.Although the distance you may have to travel is further,it can work out quicker.
Set your car radio to receive traffic bulletins. Many new car stereo systems (汽车音响系 统) are equipped with a radio system by which you can hear the traffic channel.This way you can get the latest traffic information and change your journey if necessary.
__________ Most traffic jams usually occur during rush hour,so try to avoid this time period if possible.Some jobs offer flexible working hours so that you can travel to work outside of rush hour.Some jobs even allow you to work at home so as to avoid moving altogether.Ask your manager to see what you can do if traffic is a problem for you.
Use public transport alternatives where available.The easiest way to avoid traffic jams is to take buses or the underground instead of driving your own car.Not only will you avoid traffic jams but you will most likely be saving money as the cost of motoring rises.
