(2020重庆一中高二月考,)
The Mars 2020 rover, which will set off for the Red Planet this year, will not only search for traces of ancient life, but pave the way for future human missions, NASA’s scientists said on Friday as they introduced the vehicle.
The rover has been constructed in a large, sterile room at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, near Los Angeles, where its driving equipment was given its first successful test last week.
Shown to invited journalists on Friday, it is scheduled to leave Earth in July 2020 from Florida’s Cape Canaveral, becoming the fifth US rover to land on Mars seven months later in February.
“It’s designed to seek the signs of life, so we’re carrying a number of different instruments that will help us understand the geological and chemical situations on the surface of Mars,” deputy mission leader Matt Wallace told AFP.
Among the devices aboard the rover are 23 cameras, two “ears” that will allow it to listen to Martian winds, and lasers used for chemical analysis.
Approximately the size of a car, the rover is equipped with six wheels like the former US rover, Curiosity, allowing it to travel along rocky land.
Speed is not a priority for the vehicle, which merely has to cover around 200 yards (about 180 metres) per Martian day—approximately the same as a day on Earth.
Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor, it has seven-foot-long (about 2 metres) articulated arms and a drill to crack open rock samples in locations scientists identify as potentially suitable for life.
We are hoping to move fairly quickly. We’d like to see the next mission launched in 2026 where the rover will get to Mars, pick up the samples, put them into a rocket and finally bring them back to the Earth, said Wallace. NASA’s Mars 2020 rover will remain active for at least one Martian year, which is around two years on Earth.
1.What does the underlined part “pave the way” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Make preparations.
B.Find suitable landing sites.
C.Set up research centers.
D.Construct roads.
2.What can we know about the Mars 2020 rover?
A.It looks much like a car with six wheels.
B.It is an updated version of the US rover Curiosity.
C.It is solar-powered and can crack open rock samples.
D.It is able to perform different tasks on Mars in search of the signs of life.
3.If you search for the passage on the website of China Daily, where can you probably find it?
A.Lifestyle. B.Region.
C.World. D.Culture.
4.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.The Mars 2020 rover has successfully passed its first test.
B.NASA is planning a new round of space exploration.
C.Future human missions on Mars are on the way.
D.A new rover will be launched to carry out scientific research on Mars.
Ⅱ.七选五
(2021浙江温州新力量联盟高二上期末联考,)
The 24-year-old female commander(指挥员) Zhou Chengyu has been a heated topic on Weibo since the Chinese state media highlighted her as one of the women involved in the successful launch of the Chang’e 5 lunar probe(月球探测器) on 24 November. Social media users have been referring to her as a “source of pride” for the country. 1 Several people jokingly reflected on their own achievements, commenting how far behind in life they were in comparison.
Starting in 2004, the Chang’e Programme consists of three stages:“orbiting”, “landing” and “returning”. 2 In December, 2013, the goal of China’s first soft landing on the lunar surface and ground exploration on the Moon was achieved by the lander of Chang’e 3 and Yutu lunar rover. Last year, Chang’e 4 probe made the first-ever soft landing on the far side of the moon.
The Chang’e 5 mission is China’s third successful moon landing in seven years. 3 If it were successful, China would be the third country to bring lunar samples back to Earth after the United States and the Soviet Union.
Most Chinese people know the mythological story of Chang’e, the Chinese goddess of the moon. People can’t hear the word “Chang’e” without picturing romantic images of a moon goddess. 4 And so pictures of Zhou Chengyu have been all over the state media, with comments about how she is a “front-line soldier in the field of aerospace” and a “big sister” that the young Chinese can look up to.
However, the huge amount of interest in the native of Guizhou Province has not appeared to have had much of an effect on her. 5
A.Her story in particular has inspired the public, considering her young age.
B.She refused repeated requests for interviews in order to focus on her work.
C.However, China has been trying to highlight strong female figures in the country.
D.Despite her young age, Zhou is now working at the Wenchang Satellite Launch Center.
E.Its aim is to gather lunar rocks and soil to help scientists learn more about the moon.
F.For this reason, China’s mission to the moon has been calling for a strong female figure.
G.China completed the “orbiting” stage by launching Chang’e 1 and Chang’e 2 lunar probes in 2007 and 2010.

Ⅲ.概要写作
(2021湖南长郡中学高二期中,)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
It may help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planned. Fortunately, such moments are usually not obvious to the listeners. Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. They hear only what the speaker does say. If you lose your place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to stop at a certain point, no one will be any the wiser. When such moments occur, don’t worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happened.
Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesn’t really matter. If you have ever listened to Martin Luther King’s famous speech—“I Have a Dream”, you may notice that he stumbled (结巴) over his words twice during the speech. Most likely, however, you don’t remember. Why? Because you were fixing your attention on his message rather than on his way of speech-making.
People care a lot about making a mistake in a speech because they regard speech-making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition. However, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a perfect performer. They are looking for a well-thought-out speech that expresses the speaker’s ideas clearly and directly. Sometimes a mistake or two can actually increase a speaker’s attractiveness by making him more human.
As you work on your speech, don’t worry about being perfect. Once you free your mind of this, you will find it much easier to give your speech freely.

Ⅰ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道,美国国家航空航天局科学家上周五表示“Mars 2020”火星车将启程前往火星,它不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类太空飞行任务做好准备,文章同时介绍了这款火星探测器的一些情况。
1.A 词义猜测题。结合第一段画线短语所在句可知,“Mars 2020”火星车不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类太空飞行任务做好准备。由此可知,画线短语“pave the way”意思为“做好准备”。故选A。B.找到合适的着陆地点;C.建立研究中心;D.建造道路,均不符合语境。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的It’s designed to seek the signs of life, so we’re carrying a number of different instruments that will help us understand the geological and chemical situations on the surface of Mars可知,“Mars 2020”火星车携带了许多不同的仪器,能够在火星上执行不同的任务,寻找生命的迹象。故选D。根据第六段可知,这个火星车只是在大小上跟一辆汽车差不多,它有六个轮子,与美国以前的“好奇号”火星车相似,但并非“好奇号”的升级版。所以A、B两项说法均不正确。根据倒数第二段中的Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor可知,它是由小型的核反应堆驱动的,并非由太阳能驱动,所以C项说法不正确。
3.C 推理判断题。文章主要说明了美国国家航空航天局科学家周五表示,“Mars 2020”火星车今年将启程前往火星,这一火星探测器不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类任务做好准备,同时介绍了这款火星探测器的一些情况。这属于国外科技类文章,结合选项可推知,如果你在《中国日报》的网站上搜索这篇文章,你可能会在“World(世界)”部分找到它。故选C。A.生活方式;B.地区;D.文化。
4.D 主旨大意题。根据第一段可知美国国家航空航天局科学家周五表示“Mars 2020”火星车今年将启程前往火星,它不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类任务做好准备,同时介绍了这款火星探测器的一些情况。由此可知,这篇文章的主旨是一个新的火星探测器将被发射到火星上进行科学研究。故选D。A.“Mars 2020”火星车成功地通过了它的第一次测试;B.NASA正计划新一轮的太空探索;C.未来人类在火星上的任务即将到来。这三项均不是主旨大意。
【高频词汇】 1.set off for动身去……,启程去……
2.approximately adv.大概;大约 3.priority n.优先事项;优先;优先权 4.cover v.行走(一段路程) 5.fuel v.为……提供燃料
长难句分析
原句 Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor, it has seven-foot-long (about 2 metres) articulated arms and a drill to crack open rock samples in locations scientists identify as potentially suitable for life.
分析 本句为主从复合句。句子主干为it has seven-foot-long (about 2 metres) articulated arms and a drill。Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor为过去分词短语作状语;to crack open rock samples in locations...为不定式短语作定语;scientists identify as potentially suitable for life为省略关系词的定语从句,修饰先行词locations,省略的关系词在从句中作identify 的宾语。
句意 由一个小型核反应堆提供燃料,它有7英尺长(约2米)的铰接臂和一个钻头,用来在科学家认为可能适合生命存在的地点砸开岩石样本。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道,主要报道了与嫦娥五号有关的24岁的女航天发射指挥员周承钰的事,同时也介绍了我国的“嫦娥工程”。
1.A 根据上文“Social media users have been referring to her as a ‘source of pride’ for the country.”(社交媒体用户把她称为我国的“骄傲之源”)和下文“Several people jokingly reflected on their own achievements, commenting how far behind in life they were in comparison.”(一些人拿他们自己的成就开玩笑,说相比之下他们在生活中远远落后)可知,A项“考虑到她还很年轻,她的故事尤其鼓舞公众”符合语境。故选A。
2.G 根据上文“Starting in 2004...‘orbiting’, ‘landing’ and ‘returning’.”(始于2004年,“嫦娥工程”分三个阶段——“绕”“落”和“回”)和下文“In December, 2013, the goal of China’s first soft landing...of Chang’e 3.”(在2013年12月,嫦娥三号着陆器和玉兔号月球车实现了我国首次在月球表面软着陆并探测月球地面的目标)可知, G项“通过2007年发射的‘嫦娥一号’和2010年发射的‘嫦娥二号’中国完成了‘绕’这个阶段”符合语境,在时间上承接了上文的2004,并与下文的2013呼应,该段按时间线索展示了中国的“嫦娥工程”。故选G。
3.E 根据上文“The Chang’e 5 mission is China’s third successful moon landing in seven years.”(嫦娥五号任务是中国在七年内第三次成功登月)和下文“If successful, China would be the third country to bring lunar samples back to Earth after the United States and the Soviet Union.”(如果成功的话,中国将成为继美国和苏联后第三个把月球样本带回地球的国家)可知,E项“它的目标是收集月球岩石和土壤以帮助科学家更多地了解月球”符合语境,承上启下,选项中的aim呼应上文的mission。故选E。
4.F 根据上文“People can’t hear the word ‘Chang’e’ without picturing romantic images of a moon goddess.”(人们听到‘嫦娥’这个词就会不禁联想到月亮女神的浪漫形象)和下文“And so pictures of Zhou Chengyu have been all over the state media...young Chinese can look up to.”(因此,周承钰的照片出现在国家媒体上,评论说她是“航天一线战士”,是年轻的中国人都尊敬的“大姐姐”)可推知,F项“正是这个原因,中国登月的任务一直需要一个有影响力的女性人物”符合语境,选项中的this reason指代上文内容。故选F。
5.B 根据上文“However, the huge amount of interest in the native of Guizhou Province has not appeared to have had much of an effect on her.”(然而,人们对这位贵州本地人的巨大兴趣似乎并没有对她产生多大影响)可推知,B项 “为了专注于她的工作,她多次拒绝了采访请求”符合语境,说明了出名没有给她带来很大影响的具体体现,故选B。
【高频词汇】 1.refer to...as...称……为…… 2.consist of由……组成 3.mythological adj.神话的 4.look up to钦佩;尊敬
长难句分析
原句 The 24-year-old female commander(指挥员) Zhou Chengyu has been a heated topic on Weibo since the Chinese state media highlighted her as one of the women involved in the successful launch of the Chang’e 5 lunar probe(月球探测器) on 24 November.
分析 本句为主从复合句。句子主干为The 24-year-old female commander Zhou Chengyu has been a heated topic on Weibo。since 引导时间状语从句,其中,involved in the successful launch of the Chang’e 5 lunar probe on 24 November为过去分词短语作定语,修饰the women。
句意 自从中国官方媒体强调周承钰是参与11月24日成功发射嫦娥五号月球探测器的女性之一以来,24岁的女指挥员周承钰一直是微博上的热门话题。
Ⅲ.写作指导
1.语篇内容解读
①主题语境:人与自我——演讲
语篇类型:说明文
②文章内容:
本文先提出没有完美的演讲,每个演讲者都会犯错误。然后指出,犯错误并不要紧,因为听众可能不会注意,即使犯了明显的错误,也不用太在意,因为听众在意的是你的思想,而不是你的演讲方式,犯错误使演讲者更有人情味。最后,文章指出,要轻松地做演讲。
2.文章脉络分析
写作建议
写作时考生需分清文本中的主要事实和细节,即寻找关键词和主题句,准确理解、分析原文要点,归纳段落大意;各要点的表达既要相对独立又要有适当的衔接,要用适当的衔接词贯通全文;行文尽量同原文保持协调,即用较多的文字写重要内容,用较少的文字写次要内容。此外还应注意多使用概括性词语,少用具体描写性词语。
One possible version:
There is no perfect speech as every speaker makes a mistake, which listeners may not notice, so just go on.(要点1) Besides, it doesn’t matter when you make mistakes sometimes, because listeners focus on your thought rather than the way a speech is made.(要点2) Actually, a mistake or two can make a speaker more attractive and more human. (要点3)Therefore, take it easy, and it will be much easier to make a speech freely.(要点4)

The 24-year-old female commander(指挥员) Zhou Chengyu has been a heated topic on Weibo since the Chinese state media highlighted her as one of the women involved in the successful launch of the Chang’e 5 lunar probe(月球探测器) on 24 November. Social media users have been referring to her as a “source of pride” for the country. 1 Several people jokingly reflected on their own achievements, commenting how far behind in life they were in comparison.
Starting in 2004, the Chang’e Programme consists of three stages:“orbiting”, “landing” and “returning”. 2 In December, 2013, the goal of China’s first soft landing on the lunar surface and ground exploration on the Moon was achieved by the lander of Chang’e 3 and Yutu lunar rover. Last year, Chang’e 4 probe made the first-ever soft landing on the far side of the moon.
The Chang’e 5 mission is China’s third successful moon landing in seven years. 3 If it were successful, China would be the third country to bring lunar samples back to Earth after the United States and the Soviet Union.
Most Chinese people know the mythological story of Chang’e, the Chinese goddess of the moon. People can’t hear the word “Chang’e” without picturing romantic images of a moon goddess. 4 And so pictures of Zhou Chengyu have been all over the state media, with comments about how she is a “front-line soldier in the field of aerospace” and a “big sister” that the young Chinese can look up to.
However, the huge amount of interest in the native of Guizhou Province has not appeared to have had much of an effect on her. 5
A.Her story in particular has inspired the public, considering her young age.
B.She refused repeated requests for interviews in order to focus on her work.
C.However, China has been trying to highlight strong female figures in the country.
D.Despite her young age, Zhou is now working at the Wenchang Satellite Launch Center.
E.Its aim is to gather lunar rocks and soil to help scientists learn more about the moon.
F.For this reason, China’s mission to the moon has been calling for a strong female figure.
G.China completed the “orbiting” stage by launching Chang’e 1 and Chang’e 2 lunar probes in 2007 and 2010.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Ⅲ.概要写作
(2021湖南长郡中学高二期中,)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
It may help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planned. Fortunately, such moments are usually not obvious to the listeners. Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. They hear only what the speaker does say. If you lose your place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to stop at a certain point, no one will be any the wiser. When such moments occur, don’t worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happened.
Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesn’t really matter. If you have ever listened to Martin Luther King’s famous speech—“I Have a Dream”, you may notice that he stumbled (结巴) over his words twice during the speech. Most likely, however, you don’t remember. Why? Because you were fixing your attention on his message rather than on his way of speech-making.
People care a lot about making a mistake in a speech because they regard speech-making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition. However, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a perfect performer. They are looking for a well-thought-out speech that expresses the speaker’s ideas clearly and directly. Sometimes a mistake or two can actually increase a speaker’s attractiveness by making him more human.
As you work on your speech, don’t worry about being perfect. Once you free your mind of this, you will find it much easier to give your speech freely.

能力提升练
Ⅰ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道,美国国家航空航天局科学家上周五表示“Mars 2020”火星车将启程前往火星,它不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类太空飞行任务做好准备,文章同时介绍了这款火星探测器的一些情况。
1.A 词义猜测题。结合第一段画线短语所在句可知,“Mars 2020”火星车不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类太空飞行任务做好准备。由此可知,画线短语“pave the way”意思为“做好准备”。故选A。B.找到合适的着陆地点;C.建立研究中心;D.建造道路,均不符合语境。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的It’s designed to seek the signs of life, so we’re carrying a number of different instruments that will help us understand the geological and chemical situations on the surface of Mars可知,“Mars 2020”火星车携带了许多不同的仪器,能够在火星上执行不同的任务,寻找生命的迹象。故选D。根据第六段可知,这个火星车只是在大小上跟一辆汽车差不多,它有六个轮子,与美国以前的“好奇号”火星车相似,但并非“好奇号”的升级版。所以A、B两项说法均不正确。根据倒数第二段中的Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor可知,它是由小型的核反应堆驱动的,并非由太阳能驱动,所以C项说法不正确。
3.C 推理判断题。文章主要说明了美国国家航空航天局科学家周五表示,“Mars 2020”火星车今年将启程前往火星,这一火星探测器不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类任务做好准备,同时介绍了这款火星探测器的一些情况。这属于国外科技类文章,结合选项可推知,如果你在《中国日报》的网站上搜索这篇文章,你可能会在“World(世界)”部分找到它。故选C。A.生活方式;B.地区;D.文化。
4.D 主旨大意题。根据第一段可知美国国家航空航天局科学家周五表示“Mars 2020”火星车今年将启程前往火星,它不仅将寻找古代生命的痕迹,而且将为未来的人类任务做好准备,同时介绍了这款火星探测器的一些情况。由此可知,这篇文章的主旨是一个新的火星探测器将被发射到火星上进行科学研究。故选D。A.“Mars 2020”火星车成功地通过了它的第一次测试;B.NASA正计划新一轮的太空探索;C.未来人类在火星上的任务即将到来。这三项均不是主旨大意。
【高频词汇】 1.set off for动身去……,启程去……
2.approximately adv.大概;大约 3.priority n.优先事项;优先;优先权 4.cover v.行走(一段路程) 5.fuel v.为……提供燃料
长难句分析
原句 Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor, it has seven-foot-long (about 2 metres) articulated arms and a drill to crack open rock samples in locations scientists identify as potentially suitable for life.
分析 本句为主从复合句。句子主干为it has seven-foot-long (about 2 metres) articulated arms and a drill。Fueled by a tiny nuclear reactor为过去分词短语作状语;to crack open rock samples in locations...为不定式短语作定语;scientists identify as potentially suitable for life为省略关系词的定语从句,修饰先行词locations,省略的关系词在从句中作identify 的宾语。
句意 由一个小型核反应堆提供燃料,它有7英尺长(约2米)的铰接臂和一个钻头,用来在科学家认为可能适合生命存在的地点砸开岩石样本。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道,主要报道了与嫦娥五号有关的24岁的女航天发射指挥员周承钰的事,同时也介绍了我国的“嫦娥工程”。
1.A 根据上文“Social media users have been referring to her as a ‘source of pride’ for the country.”(社交媒体用户把她称为我国的“骄傲之源”)和下文“Several people jokingly reflected on their own achievements, commenting how far behind in life they were in comparison.”(一些人拿他们自己的成就开玩笑,说相比之下他们在生活中远远落后)可知,A项“考虑到她还很年轻,她的故事尤其鼓舞公众”符合语境。故选A。
2.G 根据上文“Starting in 2004...‘orbiting’, ‘landing’ and ‘returning’.”(始于2004年,“嫦娥工程”分三个阶段——“绕”“落”和“回”)和下文“In December, 2013, the goal of China’s first soft landing...of Chang’e 3.”(在2013年12月,嫦娥三号着陆器和玉兔号月球车实现了我国首次在月球表面软着陆并探测月球地面的目标)可知, G项“通过2007年发射的‘嫦娥一号’和2010年发射的‘嫦娥二号’中国完成了‘绕’这个阶段”符合语境,在时间上承接了上文的2004,并与下文的2013呼应,该段按时间线索展示了中国的“嫦娥工程”。故选G。
3.E 根据上文“The Chang’e 5 mission is China’s third successful moon landing in seven years.”(嫦娥五号任务是中国在七年内第三次成功登月)和下文“If successful, China would be the third country to bring lunar samples back to Earth after the United States and the Soviet Union.”(如果成功的话,中国将成为继美国和苏联后第三个把月球样本带回地球的国家)可知,E项“它的目标是收集月球岩石和土壤以帮助科学家更多地了解月球”符合语境,承上启下,选项中的aim呼应上文的mission。故选E。
4.F 根据上文“People can’t hear the word ‘Chang’e’ without picturing romantic images of a moon goddess.”(人们听到‘嫦娥’这个词就会不禁联想到月亮女神的浪漫形象)和下文“And so pictures of Zhou Chengyu have been all over the state media...young Chinese can look up to.”(因此,周承钰的照片出现在国家媒体上,评论说她是“航天一线战士”,是年轻的中国人都尊敬的“大姐姐”)可推知,F项“正是这个原因,中国登月的任务一直需要一个有影响力的女性人物”符合语境,选项中的this reason指代上文内容。故选F。
5.B 根据上文“However, the huge amount of interest in the native of Guizhou Province has not appeared to have had much of an effect on her.”(然而,人们对这位贵州本地人的巨大兴趣似乎并没有对她产生多大影响)可推知,B项 “为了专注于她的工作,她多次拒绝了采访请求”符合语境,说明了出名没有给她带来很大影响的具体体现,故选B。
【高频词汇】 1.refer to...as...称……为…… 2.consist of由……组成 3.mythological adj.神话的 4.look up to钦佩;尊敬
长难句分析
原句 The 24-year-old female commander(指挥员) Zhou Chengyu has been a heated topic on Weibo since the Chinese state media highlighted her as one of the women involved in the successful launch of the Chang’e 5 lunar probe(月球探测器) on 24 November.
分析 本句为主从复合句。句子主干为The 24-year-old female commander Zhou Chengyu has been a heated topic on Weibo。since 引导时间状语从句,其中,involved in the successful launch of the Chang’e 5 lunar probe on 24 November为过去分词短语作定语,修饰the women。
句意 自从中国官方媒体强调周承钰是参与11月24日成功发射嫦娥五号月球探测器的女性之一以来,24岁的女指挥员周承钰一直是微博上的热门话题。
Ⅲ.写作指导
1.语篇内容解读
①主题语境:人与自我——演讲
语篇类型:说明文
②文章内容:
本文先提出没有完美的演讲,每个演讲者都会犯错误。然后指出,犯错误并不要紧,因为听众可能不会注意,即使犯了明显的错误,也不用太在意,因为听众在意的是你的思想,而不是你的演讲方式,犯错误使演讲者更有人情味。最后,文章指出,要轻松地做演讲。
2.文章脉络分析
写作建议
写作时考生需分清文本中的主要事实和细节,即寻找关键词和主题句,准确理解、分析原文要点,归纳段落大意;各要点的表达既要相对独立又要有适当的衔接,要用适当的衔接词贯通全文;行文尽量同原文保持协调,即用较多的文字写重要内容,用较少的文字写次要内容。此外还应注意多使用概括性词语,少用具体描写性词语。
One possible version:
There is no perfect speech as every speaker makes a mistake, which listeners may not notice, so just go on.(要点1) Besides, it doesn’t matter when you make mistakes sometimes, because listeners focus on your thought rather than the way a speech is made.(要点2) Actually, a mistake or two can make a speaker more attractive and more human. (要点3)Therefore, take it easy, and it will be much easier to make a speech freely.(要点4)
