Speaking to a group can be difficult, but listening to a bad speech is truly a tiresome task-especially when the speaker is confusing.Don't want to confuse your audience? Follow these suggestions:
1.________
When it comes to understanding new information, the human brain needs a little time.First, we hear the words; then, we compare the new information to what we already know.If the two are different, we need to pause and think.But a breathless speaker never stops to let us think about what he or she is saying and risks confusing us.Slow it
2.________
Sometimes we all start a sentence one way and then switch directions, which is very difficult to follow.When you the audience confuse your listeners with opposing information, you leave the audience wondering what part of the information is right and what part they should remember.Instead of relying and keeping correcting yourself, work to get the facts clear and straight.
3.________
Jumping from point to point as it comes to your mind puts the onus(责任)on your listeners to make up for your lack of organisation.And it's confusing for them to listen, reorganise, and figure out what you're saying all at once.But going smoothly from one point to the next helps them understand information more easily.You can arrange things from beginning to end, small to large, top to bottom or by some other order.Just be sure to organise.
4.________
Repeated use of um, ah, like, you know and some other useless noises can drive an audience crazy.It makes the speaker sound uncertain and unprepared, and it can leave listeners so annoyed that they can't pay attention.Recently I attended a speech that was marked by so many ums that audience members were rolling their eyes.Was anybody grasping the intended message? Um, probably not.
5.________
Many speakers finish up their speeches with question-and-answer(Q & A)sessions, but some let the Q & A go on without a clear end.The audience is often left confused about whether the meeting is over and when they can get up and leave.Do your listeners a favour by setting a time limit on questions, and close your speech with a specific signal-even if it's something simple like, “If you have any more questions, you know where to reach me.”
Or even more to the point, conclude your speech with “Thanks for your time.”

A Different DianaBook shows her life not unhappy as people think.
LONDON-Nearly four years after Britain's Princess Diana died in a Paris car crash, most people remember her unhappy childhood, a loveless marriage, infidelity and a brief affair. But British journalists Tim Clayton and Phil Craig, who had a frequent view of Charles and Diana, insist her life wasn't quite like that. Their book, Diana: Story of a Princess, has been published in a British tabloid days before what would have been Diana's 40th birthday on July 1.
So much for her loveless marriage to Prince Charles: “When they looked at each other, they looked as though they wanted to rip the clothes off each other. They looked so much in love. I am convinced of it to this day.” veteran newspaper photographer Arthur Edwards told the authors about the couple's early tour to Australia.
Photographer Ken Lennox, whose telephoto snaps of the pregnant princess in a bikini outraged much of the country before Prince William's 1982 birth, agreed with Edwards.
They were “a very happy couple together”, Lennox is quoted as saying. “They went into the water and kissed each other. He carried her out of the water. She threw a towel over his head and they raced up the sand.”
An unidentified senior member of the royal household reportedly said the same. They were not unhappy at the beginning-just stormy; loving at times and confused at times, he reportedly said.
The book also says that some who knew Diana felt she exaggerated the unhappiness of her childhood.
The book includes an unusual number of quotes from identified sources.
One of them, astrologer Felix Lyle, describes a visit from Diana when she was trying to decide whether to participate in Andrew Morton's.1992 book, “Diana, Her True Story.”
This publication of her side of the marriage breakdown, with its deeply unattractive portrayal of the heir to the British throne, sealed her fate within the royal family and led to separation in 1992 and divorce in 1996.
Lyle is quoted as saying Diana told him about her marriage and of her reservations about taking part in the book.
“But she wanted revenge--there's no question about that… I think she was bitterly, bitterly hurt and would see the tearing down of the royal family as a perfectly justifiable end.”

2.Who insist Diana's life was not quite like what most people thought?________________.
3.选择合适的释义解释。
a) snap A.shock and anger
b) outrage B.photograph
c) confuse C.make seem larger or greater than it really is
