Sometimes, the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about
22、these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends-you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak s
23、o that they can hear you- loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself. Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are se

But like so many things that we do without thinking such actions at one time probably represented something. For example, in primitive(原始的) lif
28、e the hand was used to fight enemies, kill animals, and make spears and tools. So when the hand was extended to someone, it showed that the person was not armed or ready for fight. We know that the hand was an important symbol in early religion, probably as a mark of power. The Greeks prayed to thei
29、r gods with raised hands. Presenting the hands palm to palm was at one time the way an inferior(身份低的) person paid respect to a superior(身份高的) one. Among the Arabs, it was customary at one time to kiss the hand of a superior. Later on, polite Arabs began to resist the efforts of people to kiss their
30、hands, and sometimes they would end up shaking hands as each tried to prevent the other from showing this mark of “inferiority(下 级).” The early Greeks held out the right hand when they wished to show friendship to a stranger. So we can see that the hand, and what was done with it, was full of meanin
31、g to people down through the ages. And while we shake hands without thinking, we are really carrying on a custom that has been handed down to us from ancient times. 51.

But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball,
