8、Some people do not like anything to be out of place;they are never late for work;they return their books on time to the library;they remember people's birthdays;and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive．Mr．Hill is such a man.
Mr．Hill works in a bank,and lives alone．The only family he has is in the next town:his sister lives there with her husband,and her son,Jack．Mr．Hill does not see his sister,or her family,from one year to the next,but he sends them Christmas cards,and he has not forgotten one of Jack's seventeen birthdays.
Last week Mr．Hill had quite a surprise．He drove home from the bank at the usual time,driving neither too slowly nor too fast;he parked his car where he always parked it,out of the way of other cars,and he went inside to make his evening meal．Just then,there was a knock at the door．He opened the door,to find a policeman standing on the door-step.
"What have I done wrong?"Mr．Hill asked himself．"Have I driven on the wrong side of the road?Has there been some trouble at the bank?Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?"
"Hello,Uncle,"said the policeman,"My name is Jack."
Mr．Hill__.

9、If you are like most people,your intelligence varies from season to season．You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year．A noted scientist,Ellsworth Huntington(1876-1947),concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat．This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year．It does mean,however,that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking．One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next-best season,then winter．As for summer,it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!
One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that__.

10、Many people use wood stoves and fireplaces to heat their homes．Scientists have become worried about the smoke that they give off．Harmful chemicals are in the smoke．The smoke is causing air pollution．The pieces of pollution,called soot,are floating in the air．They are too tiny to see．Scientists must use a microscope to see them.
Small amounts of soot are safe,but large amounts can be dangerous．The govenment wants to limit this kind of pollution．It may stop people from using their fireplaces.
The air is tested every day．When soot levels are high,more than 65 micrograms of soot per cubic meter,factories must stop making smoke．The government thinks that limit should be much lower.
Factories produce the most smoke and soot．But the government thinks that all types of burning should be limited．The soot levels from factories and homes could be limited．Home owners may have to install new wood stoves that they comply with the new law．Or,they may not be able to bum on days when the air quality is bad.
Residents of some towns are fined if they violate the burning ban．Scientists hope these new regulations will make the air cleaner and less harmful to breathe.
What happens to some residents who bum too much wood?

11、Above all know your audience and match what you say to their needs．Creating your presentation with your audience in mind will assure that your audience will follow you．If your presentation doesn't appeal to your audience-no matter how well you have developed your presentation--your presentation will fall on deaf ears．This leads us to the next rule:Know your material thoroughly．Your material needs to be second nature to you．Practice and rehearse your presentation with friends,in front of a mirror,and with colleagues．If you are speaking in a second language,make sure that you record yourself and listen to a number of times before going to practice with a native speaker(if possible).
Remember that you are an actor when presenting．Make sure that not only your physical appearance is appropriate to the occasion,but also the tone you use is well chosen．If your topic is serious,be solemn．However,it's always a good idea to begin your presentation with an ice-breaker．Don't worry about making friends,rather lead the audience through your materials in a calm and relaxed manner．Speak slowly and clearly,and remember to address everyone in the audience-even the person the farthest away from you.
To achieve the above goals follow these tips when giving your presentation:
●Speak with conviction．Believe what you are saying and you will persuade your audience．
●Do not read from notes．Referring to notes is fine,but do so only briefly.
●Maintain eye contact with your audience．Making direct eye contact with individuals will help them feel as if they are participating in your presentation.
●Bring handouts．Don't just use a PowerPoint presentation．Provide audience members with handouts of the most important materials so they can keep your most
important takeaways in mind.
●Know when to stop．This cannot be underestimated．You need to make your case,but continuing for too long will only ensure that the audience forgets what you have said.
Why should you know when to stop?
