38、 examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience.

39、 audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop.

By the age of 27, he had already tried many jobs including an art gallery salesman and a French teacher. _63_64_ His style is marked by short, broad brush strokes (绘画笔法).
55、“Instead of trying to reproduce exactly what I have before my eyes, I use colour more freely, in order to express myself more forcibly,” he wrote in a letter to his brother in 1888. Van Gogh sold only one painting during his short life. He relied heavily on support from his brother, an art dealer wh
56、o lived in Paris. _65_ His “Portrait of Dr. Gachet” sold for US$ 89.5 million in 1990.

First, in the class, we are exposed to different kinds of English films, which help us improve both our English listening and speaking. Equally attractive are the amazing stories of the heroes, because they show us how a
71、person can work hard to make a difference. As a young student, I suggest that the teacher choose some more films that appeal to us teenagers, thus making the course more interesting. Besides, more activities should be included so that we can have more chances to practice our English. Id appreciate it if you could take my suggestions into consideration. I hope that the course will become more popular.
