Sometimes when I’m flying from one speaking engagement to another, I find myself sitting next to someone who's quite talkative. This is often a pleasant experience for me because I’m a people-watcher. I learn so much by watching and listening to the people I meet and see every day. I’ve heard stories of sadness and others of delight, fear and joy, and others that would rival those on “Oprah” and "Geraldo”.

Sad to say,there are times when I’m sitting next to someone who just wants to vent(发泄) his temper or inflict(强加)his political views on an audience for 600 miles. It was one of those days. I settled in, as my seatmate began his speech on the terrible state of the world with the time worn, “You know, kids today are...” He went on and on, sharing vague notions of the terrible state of teens and young adults, based on watching the six o’clock news rather selectively.

When I gratefully got off that plane and finally made it to my hotel in Indianapolis, I bought the local paper and went to have dinner in the hotel. There, on an inside page, was an article I believe ought to have been the front-page headline news.

In a little Indiana town, there was a 15-year-old boy with a brain tumor. He was undergoing radiation and chemotherapy(化疗)treatments,As a result of those treatments, he had lost all of his hair. I don’t know about you, but I remember how I would have felt about that at his age ---I would have felt awkward and ashamed.

This young man’s classmates willingly came to the rescue: all the boys in his grade asked their mothers if they could shave their heads so that Brian wouldn’t be the only bald boy in the high school. There, on that page was a photograph of a mother shaving all of her sons’ hair with the family looking on approvingly. And in the background, a group of similar bald young men.

No, I don’t despair about kids today.

1.From the passage we can infer the author's job is .

B. the commitments concerning speaking, like lecturers

C. a psychologist

D. to cope with complaints

2.The word “rival” in the first paragraph could best be replaced by .

3.What's the author’s attitude towards his seatmate?

A. Favorable. B. Critical.

C. Indifferent. D. Satisfied.

4.The author's purpose in telling the news about the 15-year-old boy is .

A. to show his disappointment in kids today

B. to praise the diseased boy’s bravery

C. to draw people’s attention to care for such people

D. to display his confidence and faith in today’s teens

People always communicate with words.Do you think you can communicate with words? A smile on your face shows you are happily or friendly.Tears in eyes told others that you are sad.When you put down your hand in class, the teacher knows they want to say something.Other things can also express message.For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you know that which bus to take.Signs on the door tell you whether to go in and out.Have you ever seen that there is a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all time?

1.Simon Sinek is naturally shy and doesn't like speaking to crowds.At parties,he says he hides alone in the corner or doesn't even show up in the first place.He prefers the latter.Yet,with some 22million video views under his belt,the optimistic ethnographer also happens to be the third most-watched TED Talks presenter of all time.
Sinek's unlikely success as both an inspirational speaker and a bestselling author isn't just dumb luck.It's the result of fears faced and erased,trial and error and tireless practice,on and off stage.Here are his secrets for delivering speeches that inspire,inform and entertain.
Don't talk right away.
Sinek says you should never talk as you walk out on stage."A lot of people start talking right away,and it's out of nerves,"Sinek says."That communicates a little bit of insecurity and fear."
Instead,quietly walk out on stage.Then take a deep breath,find your place,wait a few seconds and begin."I know it sounds long and tedious and it feels excruciatingly awkward when you do it,"Sinek says,"but it shows the audience you're totally confident and in charge of the situation."
Show up to give,not to take.
Often people give presentations to sell products or ideas,to get people to follow them on social media,buy their books or even just to like them.Sinek calls these kinds of speakers"takers,"and he says audiences can see through these people right away.And,when they do,they disengage.
"We are highly social animals,"says Sinek."Even at a distance on stage,we can tell if you're a giver or a taker,and people are more likely to trust a giver-a speaker that gives them value,that teaches them something new,that inspires them-than a taker."
Speak unusually slowly.
When you get nervous,it's not just your heart beat that quickens.Your words also tend to speed up.Luckily Sinek says audiences are more patient and forgiving than we know.
"They want you to succeed up there,but the more you rush,the more you turn them off,"he says."If you just go quiet for a moment and take a long,deep breath,they'll wait for you.It's kind of amazing."
Turn nervousness into excitement.
Sinek learned this trick from watching the Olympics.A few years ago he noticed that reporters interviewing Olympic athletes before and after competing were all asking the same question."Were you nervous?"And all of the athletes gave the same answer:"No,I was excited."These competitors were taking the body's signs of nervousness-clammy hands,pounding heart and tense nerves-and reinterpreting them as side effects of excitement and exhilaration.
When you're up on stage you will likely go through the same thing.That's when Sinek says you should say to yourself out loud,"I'm not nervous,I'm excited!"
Say thank you when you're done.
Applause is a gift,and when you receive a gift,it's only right to express how grateful you are for it.This is why Sinek always closes out his presentations with these two simple yet powerful words:thank you.
"They gave you their time,and they're giving you their applause."Says Sinek."That's a gift,and you have to be grateful."
