19、she said with the happiness of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.“Mrs. Jones, you havent seen the roomjust wait.”“That doesnt matter,” she replied. “Happiness is something you decide ahead of time.

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 lis

25、teners. Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. They hear only what the speaker does say.

26、, dont worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happened.Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesnt really matter.
