In December 2008, Caroline Kennedy — daughter of the late U.S. President John F. Kennedy—sat down, as a frontrunner for the Senate seat in New York, for a televised interview that helped decide the future of her campaign. The result was a disaster.
Her performance wasn’t well received, in part because her speech was full of filler words—“ums,”?“ahs”?and “you knows.”?One listener counted 27 “ums”?and 38 “you knows”?in the space of five minutes. A few weeks after the interview, Kennedy ended her Senate campaign.
Filler words may seem natural in everyday speech, but they can be deadly in formal presentations. “Using excessive fillers is the most annoying speech habit,”?said Susan Ward, a speech specialist. “They take your listener’s attention away often to the point that he doesn’t hear anything you say. Your message is entirely lost.”
Many speakers are afraid of pause. They believe their audience will think they are inarticulate (不善于表達(dá)) if they pause to think of what to say next, so they use filler words to avoid the silence. However, a pause is actually more impressive than a filler word. Listeners know that the speaker is thinking, trying to find the right word. Sometimes a pause can actually improve a speech, as when an actor uses a dramatic pause to hold the attention of his audience. A speaker shouldn’t be afraid to pause occasionally during a speech; it shows self-confidence.
It takes some work to cut out filler words. You can begin by taking a few seconds to think about what you want to say the next time you are asked a question. This pause will help you begin powerfully, and it will help you avoid using a filler word.
The same public speaking technique applies when you are shifting from one idea to another. While you may be tempted to fill the silence between ideas with a filler word, remember to allow yourself to pause and think about what you want to say next.
If you need help overcoming your “um”?problem, consider asking a family member or a friend to point out when you use filler words. You also could record an upcoming presentation and then watch yourself in action. You may be amazed at how often you say “um”?or “uh”!
Although we live in a fast-paced society that seemingly demands instant answers, we must use the pause to our advantage. Finally, we should only speak when we are ready.
-
In the first two paragraphs of the article the writer intends to ______.
A. introduce Caroline Kennedy to readers
B. illustrate how deadly filler words can be in the public speech
C. explain what filler words are
D. remind readers that they should count filler words used in public speeches
67. The reason why filler words are considered annoying by speech specialist is that?? ______.
A. they prevent the listener from focusing on what the speaker is saying.
B. they convey the speaker’s superiority to the listener.
C. they mean the speaker is not articulate at all.
D. they make the speaker appear self-confident.
68. When used properly, pauses in speeches can actually ______.
A. give the speaker more credibility
B. hold the attention of the audience
C. show the speaker’s deep insight
D. help the audience relax
69. Which of the following is NOT suggested as a way to get rid of filler words?
A. To have mental training in order to think faster.
B. To ask someone else to point out when you use filler words.
C. To watch a recording of your own speech.
D. To practice thinking for a moment before answering a question.

C
If you try to explain to someone, without using pictures, how to build the building that you have designed, it would take an enormous amount of writing and might end up with a very funny-looking building. The architect uses pictures called details to show how many hundreds of parts go together to form a complete building. This type of drawing is called drafting and is done by people called draftsmen.
Draftsmen make up the largest group of the architectural offices’ work force. Because of the wide range of duties they perform, draftsmen are sometimes called architectural technicians. In a typical office, there are not only career draftsmen but also architectural graduates working as junior draftsmen to learn the trade. Career draftsmen are usually graduates from a two-year junior college called technical school. There was a time when architectural office used young people right out of high school as tracers. Their job was to trace over the other people’s details while learning to be a draftsman. This is no longer possible with the fast-pace of architects’ offices today although a junior draftsman is given guides by the more experienced employees.
So a good comprehensive architectural drafting course is a must before anyone seeks a job with an architectural firm. The job of the draftsmen is to translate the ideas and directions of architects, designers and engineers into complete and accurate working drawings. These become the plans and details used in the actual construction of a building. The project must be shown in great detail and drawn very clearly, so there is no chance for misunderstanding by the contractors（承包商）. Every line and figure has an effect on the finished product.
As you can see, the draftsman is a key member of the architectural team. Of course, a junior draftsman is not expected to produce a complete set of working drawings. Depending on the size of the office and difficulty of the project, draftsmen may work in groups. The group leader coordinates the group and works closely with the project architect while the drawings are being produced.
Working conditions are mostly very pleasant as draftsmen's work is intense and many people depend on accurate work. Each draftsman has a large combination drawing board and desk with various drawing aids. Almost without exception, members of the architectural team have at one time in their careers worked as draftsmen. This is essential to an architect education and most architects never get very far away from the drafting board.

Get Happy: Four Wellbeing?Workouts
Relieving stress and anxiety might help you feel better — for a bit. Martin E.P. Seligman, a professor of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and a pioneer in the field of positive psychology, does not see alleviating(緩解) negative emotions as a path to happiness. To Seligmen, the most effective long-term strategy for happiness is to actively cultivate well-being. He suggests these four exercises based on research at the Penn Positive Psychology Centre, which he directs, and at other universities.
Identity signature strengths
Write down a story about a time when you were at your best. It doesn’t need to be a life-changing event but should have a clear beginning, middle and end. Reread it every day for a week, and each time ask youself: “What personal strengths did I display when I was at my best?”?Then consider how to use these strengths to your advantage, intentionally organizing and structuring?your life around them on a daily bases. Gradually, people will have on average lower rates of depression and higher life satisfaction. Possible mechanisms could be more positive emotions.__77__.????
?Find the good ????
Set aside?10 minutes before you go to bed each night to write down three things that went really well that day. Next to each event answer the question, “Why did this good thing happen?”?Instead of focusing on life’s?lows, which can increase the likelihood of depression, the exercise changes what you attend to.__78___.
Make a gratitude visit
Think of someone who has been especially kind to you but you have not properly thanked. Write a letter describing what he or she did and how it affected your life, and how you often remember the effort. Then arrange a meeting and read the letter aloud, in person.__79__
Respond constructively
This exercise was inspired by the work of Shelly Gable, a social psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who has extensively studied marriages and other close relationships. The next time someone you care about shares good news, give what Dr. Gable calls an “active constructive response.”__80__ Prolong the discussion by, say, encouraging them to tell others or suggest a celebratory activity. Love goes better, commitment increases, and from the literature, even sex gets better after that.

79.代詞線索，前文出現(xiàn)arrange a meeting和read a letter，和選項E中的it對應(yīng)，因此選E
80.緊貼段落主旨，強(qiáng)調(diào)積極回應(yīng)的好處，和后文如何回應(yīng)他們聯(lián)系在一起，故選D
