Rebirth 95: The campus goddess is awesome!
Chapter 150 National English Speech Contest Preliminary Round (5)
Xia Yutong looked at the worried expressions of her father and grandfather, and could only sigh helplessly. Some things can be hidden, but some things cannot. This is a summary of her failed experience in her previous life.
If she had confessed everything to her family early in her previous life, and had not endured everything silently, she might not have reached the point where she was almost at the end of her rope. If she hadn't thought about it at the last moment, she might have really had to make a compromise. It's a happy thing for relatives to hate enemies.
So this time she chose to "expose" all those who approached her with malicious intentions in the sun, so that her family and friends could unite together to resist such malice and harm.
When Ren Xuexin came down from the stage after drawing her number, her eyes met Xia Yutong's directly. This time she did not hide the deep resentment and unwillingness in her eyes, and her expression seemed to eat Xia Yutong alive.
The moment she drew No. 43, she subconsciously looked up at Xia Yutong. What she saw was Xia Yutong's face full of smiles and gloating. At that moment, she understood that all her calculations were actually Xia Yutong's from beginning to end. It was all clear, but this person was deliberately pretending to be stupid and kept looking at his own jokes. Could it be that in her eyes, he had always been a clown-like character? !
At that moment, she almost couldn't control herself and yelled at Xia Yutong, but because she was in the center of the stage, she gritted her teeth and held it back. After getting off the stage, she could no longer hold back the resentment in her heart and stared straight at Xia Yutong. .
But Xia Yutong's reaction almost made her explode. With a confident smile, she spread her hands towards herself, and then hugged the two people around her with her arms, as if telling herself: Come here on your own. ah! There are a group of allies around me, but you are alone! Do you think I'm afraid? !
And she was indeed stepped on. She had just transferred to Linshi No. 1 Middle School. She had not made any good friends yet. Her classmates only had general feelings. Her mother had never been to school. She was indeed alone. As a person, what could she use to fight against Xia Yutong, who was powerful and surrounded by a group of friends and family?
At this moment, a deep feeling of powerlessness hit her heart, and she didn't understand how she had reached this point. She knew clearly that Xia Yutong might not be easy to mess with, but why could she uncontrollably provoke this powerful enemy?
Xia Yutong looked at Ren Xuexin, who suddenly seemed to have lost his "fighting spirit", and lamented that it was just like this. How "stupid" was he in his previous life? How could he be defeated by such a person? !
Perhaps "innocence + excessive kindness" are her biggest shortcomings, and she has made up for them in this life. No matter how hard Ren Xuexin tries, she can no longer afford to make any splash.
After the numbers were drawn, the speech contest officially began.
In the final impromptu speech, the judges and teachers will set the topic on the spot, give the contestants fifteen minutes of preparation time, and then start the impromptu speech of 3 to 5 minutes. This will test the real level of the contestants. After all, it is only a short period of time. The fifteen minutes are too late to check the information and slowly craft an article.
Ten minutes later, the first contestant stepped on the stage. Her spoken English was considered to be standard, but I don’t know if it was because of her usual accumulation. Her vocabulary was not outstanding, and she was probably influenced by being the first one to appear. The smile on her face was a little forced, and after only three minutes, she hurriedly went down. Looking at it this way, she was afraid that she would have no chance of winning the prize in this competition.
Sure enough, the final score from the judges was not high, only 9.02 points. According to the standards of previous awards, this score has indeed missed the award.
The mentality of the second person who appeared next was much better. Even though the order of appearance was equally unfavorable, she maintained her condition throughout the whole process. Not to mention other things, she left a good impression on the judges in terms of typhoon and psychological quality alone. The final score was pretty good, with a score of 9.26. This score was enough to win the third prize.
Next, players continued to appear one after another, and the uneven levels gradually became apparent.
First of all, in terms of the content of the speeches, compared with the "frequent classics" in the previous round, the content of everyone's speeches in this round is much more "plain".
After all, the previous articles were carefully crafted by everyone, and the teachers also participated in them, polishing them over and over again. However, this round is the on-the-spot performance of the contestants. Without a certain accumulation of vocabulary, it will really pale in comparison. , but this also really tested everyone's "real ability". There were also a few outstanding ones among them. They blurted out strings of classic vocabulary, which shows that the ordinary English level is extremely high.
Secondly, it is about psychological quality. Many people practiced the previous speeches over and over in front of the mirror, and practice makes perfect. This time it is a new proposition, and the language organization is already extremely difficult. If If your mentality is unstable, every minute and every second on the stage will be torture, and it will be even more difficult to maintain a good state.
Furthermore, there is the ability to render language. Those who can reach this level are "masters". Only by stabilizing their mentality and carrying out the entire speech smoothly can the ability to render language be raised to a higher level.
Of course, only if this aspect is performed well can it be considered a truly successful speech. If you can achieve this, at least the second prize will be properly collected in your arms, and the first prize will be able to reach it on tiptoe. .
It is worth mentioning that the little brother from Experimental Middle School who drew number 1 yesterday, his little universe exploded today!
His luck was quite good today, and he got the number 32. Maybe it was because he was too depressed yesterday, or maybe it was because of his extraordinary strength. After taking the stage, his performance was remarkable, with a steady typhoon throughout the process and frequent classic vocabulary. The words came out naturally and fluently, and the emotions were increasing layer by layer, driving the audience to a higher level of emotion. At the end, they naturally won the applause of the whole room, and the final score did not live up to expectations, winning the first prize at the time. The highest score of the game was 9.56 points.
When this little brother stepped down, Xia Yutong saw him let out a deep sigh of relief, probably letting out all the depression that had accumulated in his chest at once.
So sometimes people really can't be depressed because of temporary frustration. The little brother didn't give up easily because of yesterday's dissatisfaction. He still completed his speech wonderfully, and finally made a comeback today and scored high marks. Judging from the current situation, the first prize has flown steadily into the arms of my little brother.
