Kailash knows the thought of public speaking is enough to send many people into a cold sweat-he’s been there. He made his first public speaking in Year 4 at a time when his confidence had been broken down by a bully(霸凌者). He still gets scared thinking about it today because he had to go in front of the whole class and recite a poem that made no sense whatsoever. By Year 5, Kailash started to hone his skills with the help of his father so that he could run for school captain in Year 6, but he was very shy and he couldn’t speak very well. So he started to practise and practise. That’s a good point for kids-they don’t apply for leadership positions because they are nervous, even though they’d make great leaders. Kailash went on to score the role of vice-captain, despite his speech not going to plan. He made a joke but he made it so poorly that they laughed at him, not at the joke. But he said making mistakes is a key part of the public speaking learning. Things like that happen and it’s OK.

Kailash, who counts a 4000-strong Sydney Opera House crowd and a community-based TEDx event among his public speaking credits, said public speaking skills have huge benefits in day-to-day life, from interacting with teachers to going for a job interview. Public speaking teaches young people to be comfortable in themselves. So it teaches you about self-esteem, to accept who you are. Making eye contact and smiling to connect with your audience are other key steps in pulling off public speaking, along with wearing something that makes you feel comfortable and confident. 4．What does the underlined word “hone” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Test. B．Review. C．Perform. D．Exercise. 5．What can we know about Kailash’s running for school captain? A．He made it. B．He failed in it. C．He gave it up halfway. D．He missed it. 6．Which word best describes Kailash’s attitude to others’ teasing? A．Conservative. B．Skeptical. C．Oppositional D．Tolerant. 7．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The benefits of public speaking. B．The importance of eye contact and smiling. C．Kailash’s achievements in public speaking. D．The comfort and confidence suitable clothes bring. Traditionally, robots have been hard, made of metal and other rigid material.
