In 10th grade I joined the debate team. The 1976-77 National Forensic (法医的) League debate topic, used by high schools everywhere. (29)Just reading the topic again makes me sick with remembered dread. You had to get up in front of a judge and present a response to the other team’s proposal, which you’d just listened to for the first time and for eight solid minutes. You had five minutes to prepare, 480 painful seconds to respond. But over time I decided I wanted to win. And to win I have to convince the judge, to move him or her somehow. And then it became fun. Because it was no longer about me. (30) It was about my audience: getting listeners from here to there, changing their mind, actually having them leave the room thinking differently than when they entered. And that’s powerful. How will you do if you want to be a good speaker? Memorize your speech. That’s right. Memorize every word of it. Deliver it in front of a mirror five times, six times, ten times. (31) Then deliver it while your kid is screaming in the background, to develop the confidence that you can recite it no matter what distraction pops up. Why memorize it? Because nothing will put an audience to sleep faster than someone reading from a prepared text. And then, ever, ever use PowerPoint as your speech notes. The slides are for your audience, not for you. (32)The moment they see you reading through a list, they put you in a category with every other boring presenter they’ve ever seen and you’ve lost their interest.
29. Why does the speaker never want to read the debate topic again?
30. How to win a debating contest?
31. How can we train ourselves to recite our speech under any circumstance?
32. What may the listeners do if the speaker uses PPT as his speech list?
选项
A、The process of that debate was so nervous and painful.
B、The debate was too heated to judge who was the winner.
C、The judge didn’t hold fair and objective attitude to each team.
D、The room was so hot that he couldn’t perform well.
答案
A
解析
目的原因题。短文中提到讲话者只要再看一眼题目就会想起当时的恐惧心情,因而讨厌至极。然后描述了那种紧张恐怖的场景。由此可知,讲话者不愿意再看到那个题目是因为辩论过程太紧张、太痛苦。
