It was the final examination for chemistry at the college．The examination was two hours long, and exam papers were given．The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam paper which was not on his desk in two hours would be refused and the student would fail．A half hour into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the professor for an exam paper．

"You're not going to have time to finish this," the professor said slowly as he gave the student a paper．

"Yes, I will," answered the student．He then took a seat and began writing．After two hours, the professor began to call for the exam papers, and the students stood up and put them on the professor's desk, all except the late student, who continued writing．A half hour later, the last student came up to the professor who was sitting at his desk and busy writing something．He tried to put his exam paper on the stack（撂）of the other papers already there．

"No, you can't, I'm not going to take that in．It's late．"

The student became worded．He thought for a while, then he asked the professor in a low voice," Do you know WHO I am?"

"No, surely I don' t, "answered the professor．

"DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" The student asked again．

"No, and I don't care, "said the professor in a louder voice．

"Good," answered the student, who quickly lifted the stack of exam papers, put his paper in the middle, and rushed out of the room．

My teachers suggested that I see a speech specialist (专家) in school.
I never really gave much thought to my speech. If other people understood what I was saying, then that was good enough. I didn’t mind repeating myself many times.
Before testing me, the speech specialist asked me what I thought of having good speech. I told her I thought it was not important.
“Well, when you are in an interview for a job, and they don’t know what you are saying, what are they going to say to you? Nice meeting you, bye,” she said.
Maybe good speech was important. I took part in 20-minute classes each week with the specialist.
After she tested me, she told me that I spoke too fast, and didn’t give enough eye contact (眼神交流). I learned that when I made eye contact with someone, it meant that I was talking to that person, and I could also see what he or she thought about what I was saying.
When my first speech class started, I found that I had been speaking too fast to be understood. Every time I spoke too fast, the specialist stopped me and told me to start again. At first, I got stopped after almost every other sentence. After a while, I felt my speech slow down. I wasn’t sure if people could understand me better, but my friends stopped asking me to repeat myself.
Speech is an important skill to have. If you do have good speech, that’s a good thing, but if you don’t have it, it is never too late to improve.
