Does public speaking make you nervous?
It doesn’t have to.
Answering some important questions can help you.
Who is your audience?
And what message do you want to present to them?
Once you know these two things, you can prepare well.
Here are a few more helpful tips.
Prepare your speech carefully and practice it a few times.
Then record yourself giving the speech so you can watch it and make changes.
Time記錄時間 your speech, too.
You don’t want to go over your time limit.

nervous就是紧张不安的
audience就是观众或听众
present就是呈现展现
speech就是演说

Sara, does public speaking make you nervous?
It did before.
But I kind of enjoy it now.
What’s your secret秘訣?
I have to speak in front of a large audience next week.
And I’m nervous.
Don’t think about yourself; 
think about your audience.
When you think about others interests and needs, you won’t feel so nervous.
I’ll remember that.
Focus on your message, too.
I have good information to present.
Great. Prepare your speech and practice it.
Then should I have someone else listen to it?
Yes. But first use your phone to record yourself giving your speech.
Good idea. Then I can watch it and make changes.
Yes. And don’t forget to time your speech.
Right. I don’t want to go over my time limit!

When you are nervous, it’s because you’re not sure what will happen.
You’re afraid that something bad will happen when you do something.
When you do public speaking, you’re afraid people won’t like what you’re saying.
Or that you’ll make a bad mistake.
So it’s important to prepare.

And I’m nervous.
我很紧张
Are you speaking today?
Yes. And I’m nervous.
Is this your first speech?
Yes. And I’m nervous.
Is it a large audience?
Yes. And I’m nervous.
Are you prepared?你準備好了嗎?
No. That’s why I’m nervous.

If you think about the other person’s interests or what they care about, then you won’t think or worry about those things.
We had a special mark called a semicolon分號.

说不要想着你自己; 把心思集中在你的听众身上

分号左右为两个独立的句子 用分号将两句分开 可清楚地表明它们既独立又紧密的相关

This is what you present to other people.

句中time常作名词时间用但本课它却作动词记时用

再来看当动词用表示计时
