About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer．I had a scan at 7∶30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor(肿瘤)on my pancreas(胰腺)． 1 The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months．My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die．It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months．It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family． 2 ．
I lived with that diagnosis all day．Later that evening I had a biopsy(活组织切片检查), and it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery．I had the surgery and I'm fine now．
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it’s the closest I get for a few more decades．Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept：
No one wants to die． 3 ．And yet death is the destination we all share．No one has ever escaped it．And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life．It is Life's change agent．It clears out the old to make way for the new．Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away． 4 ．
5 Don't be trapped by dogma(教条)- which is living with the results of other people's thinking．Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice．And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition．They somehow already know what you truly want to become．Everything else is secondary．
A．I didn't even know what a pancreas was．
B．It means to say your goodbyes．
C．I felt very sad and didn’t know what to do next．
D．Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there．
E．Life is full of difficulties and hardship．
F．Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true．
G．Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life．

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don't do a very good job． 1
So, you have to give a speech-and you are terrified．You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结结巴巴)over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience．Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it's over．I'm just not good at public speaking．I hope I never have to do that again．”
Cheer up! 2 Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making．Ask yourself the purpose of your speech．What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject．Spend plenty of your time doing your research．Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow．Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly． 3
Don't talk over their heads, and don't talk down to them．Treat your audience with respect．They will appreciate your thoughtfulness．
Just remember：Be prepared．Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion．Be brief． 4 And be yourself．Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience．
If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking．In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You are not convinced yet? 5
A．It doesn't have to be that bad．
B．Take several deep breaths after your speech．
C．This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech．
D．Say what you have to say and then stop．
E．Don't say what you aren't familiar with．
F．Never forget your audience．
