Robert and Peter study in the same university. They do everything together and help each other. But they often play jokes on each other.

The school year was over last month and they decided to travel through the country in America. They drove a car and could stop wherever they were interested and started whenever they wanted. Of course they enjoyed themselves. It was very hot one day and they were both hungry and thirsty. They stopped in front of a restaurant by the road. They came in, sat down at a table and ordered some dishes. Robert looked around and found there was a small bowl on the table. He thought there was some ice cream in it and took a spoonful of it and put it into his mouth. Immediately he knew it was mustard（芥末）, but it was too late. Tears ran down his face, but he pretended nothing had happened. The other young man, seeing his friend crying, asked, "What are you crying about, Robert?" "I'm thinking of my father who was hanged twenty years ago," was his reply.

After a while Peter made the same mistake. Tears ran down his face, too. And his friend asked him why.

You have to give a speech, and you’re terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words（不顺畅地说）, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”

Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask
