Often speakers at a meeting experience dry mouths and ask for a glass of water. You can solve the
problem by activating the saliva in your mouth.First gently bite the edges of your tongue with your teeth.Or,
press your entire tongue to the bottom of your mouth and hold it there until the saliva flow. Or you can
imagine that you are slicing a big juicy lemon and sucking the juice.
Before you begin your talk,be kind to your voice.Avoid milk or creamy drinks which coat your throat.
Keep your throat wet by drinking a little sweetened warm tea or diluted fruit juice.
If you sense that you are losing your voice,stop talking completely.Save your voice for your speech.You
may feel foolish using paper to write notes,but the best thing you can do is to rest your voice.If you need to
see a doctor.perhaps you can get some advice from a orofessional singer. In the meantime,do not even talk in
a low voice.
What about drinking alcohol to wet your throat?I advise you not to touch alcohol before speaking.The
problem with alcohol is that one drink gives you a little confidence.The second drink gives you even more
confidence.Finally you will feel all-powerful and you will feel you can do everything,but in fact your brain
and your mouth do not work together properly.Save the alcohol until after you finish speaking.
Perhaps you want to accept the advice, but you may wonder if you can ever change the habits of a
lifetime.Of course you can.Goethe,who lived before indoor skating rinks or swimming pools,said,"We learn
to skate in the summer and swim in the winter."Take this message to heart and give yourself time to develop
your new habits.If you are willing to change,you will soon be able. to say that you will never forget these
techniques because they became a part of your body.

The writer's advice about alcohol before you make a speech is to take one or two drinks so as to give yourself some confidence.
A:Right
B:Wrong

The Drink Your Body Needs Most

I Our bodies are estimated to be about 60% to 70% water. Blood is mostly water,and
our muscles,lungs,and brain all contain a lot of water. Water is needed to regulate body
temperature and to provide the means for nutrients（滋养物）to travel to all our organs.
Water also transports oxygen to our cells,removes waste,and protects our joints and
organs.
2 We lose water through urination（排尿）,respiration（呼吸）,and by sweating. If you
are very active,you lose more water than if you do not take much exercise.Symptoms of
mild dehydration（脱水）include chronic pains in joints and muscles, lower back pain,
headaches, and constipation（便秘）.A strong smell to your urine, along with a yellow
color indicates that you are not getting enough water. Thirst is an obvious sign of
dehydration and in fact,you need water long before you feel thirsty.
3 A good rule of thumb（好的做法）is to take your bod犷weight in pounds and divide that
number in half. That gives you the number of ounces（盎司）of water per day that you
need.For example,if you weigh 160 pounds,you should drink at least 80 ounces of water
per day.If you exercise you should drink another 8-ounce glass of water for every 20
minutes you are active.If you drink coffee or alcohol,you should add at least an equal
amount of water. When you are traveling on an airplane,it is good to have 8 ounces of
water for every hour you are on board the plane.
4 It may be difficult to drink enough water on a busy day.Be sure you have water handy at
all times by keeping a bottle for water with you when you are working,traveling,or
exercising.If you get bored with plain water,add a bit of lemon for a touch of flavor.There
are some brands of flavored water available,but some of them have sugar or artificial
sweeteners that you don't need.

Don't forget to drink enough water even__________.
A:in your body
B:without water
C:before long
D:for a change
E:on a busy day
F:to your weight

If you sense that you are losing your voice,stop talking completely.In the meantime,do not even talk in a low voice.Save your voice for your health.You may feel foolish using paper to write notes,but the best thing you can do is to rest your voice.If it is necessary,perhaps you can get some advice from a professional singer.
What about drinking alcohol to wet your throat?I advice you not to touch alcohol before speaking. The problem with alcohol is that one drink gives you a little confidence.The second drink gives you even more confidence.Finally you will feel all-powerful and you will feel you can do everything,but in fact your brain and your mouth do not work together properly.Save the alco- hol until after you finish speaking.
Perhaps you want to accept the advice,but you may wonder if you can ever change the habits of a lifetime .Of course you can .Goethe,who lived before indoor skating rinks or swimming pools,said,“We learn to skate in the summer and swim in the winter”.Take this message to heart and give yourself time to develop your new habits.If you are willing to change,you will soon be able to say that you will never forget these techniques because they became a part of your body.

Goethe often did outdoor skating and swimming.
