单选题Public speaking fills most people with dread. Humiliation is the greatest fear; self- exposure and failing to appeal to the audience come a close second. Women hate it most, since girls are pressurized from an early age to be concerned with appearances of all kinds.
Most people have plenty of insecurities, and this seems like a situation that will bring them out. If you were under pressure to be perfect, you are terrified of falling in the most public of ways.
Extroverts, on the contrary, will feel less fear before the ordeal. It does not mean they will necessarily do it better. Some very shy people manage to shine. When I met the British comedian Julian Clary, he was shy and cautious, yet his TV performances are perfect.
In fact, personality is not the best predictor of who does it well. Regardless of what you are like in real life, the key seems to be to act yourself.
Actual acting, as in performing the scripted lines of a character other than yourself, does not do the job. While politicians may limit damage by having carefully rehearsed, written scripts to speak from, there is always a hidden awareness among the audience that the words might not be true.
Likewise, the incredibly perfect speeches of many American academics are far from natural. You may end up buying their book on the way out, but soon afterwards, it is much like fast food, and you get a nameless sense that you"ve been cheated.
Although, as Earl Spencer proved at his sister Princess Diana"s funeral, it is possible both to prepare every word and to act naturally. A script rarely works and it is used to help most speakers.
But, being yourself doesn"t work either. If you spoke as if you were in your own kitchen, it would be too authentic, too unaware of the need to communicate with an audience.
I remember going to see British psychiatrist R. D. Laing speak in public. He behaved like a seriously odd person, talking off the top of his head. Although he was talking about madness and he wrote on mental illness, he seemed to be exhibiting rather than explaining it.
The best psychological place from which to speak is an unselfconscious self- consciousness, providing the illusion of being natural. Studies suggest that this state of "flow", as psychologists call it, is very satisfying.

单选题 Male chauvinism--the attitude that women are the
passive and inferior servants of society and of men--sets women apart from the
rest of the working class. Even when they do the same work as men, women are not
considered workers in the same sense, with the need and right to work to provide
for their families or to support themselves independently. They are expected to
accept work at lower wages and without job security. Thus they can be used as a
marginal or reserve labor force when profits depend on extra low costs or when
men are needed for war. Women are not supposed to be
independent, so they are not supposed to have any "right to work". This means,
in effect, that although they do work, they are denied the right to organize and
fight for better wages and conditions. Thus the role of women in the labor force
undermines the struggles of male workers as well. The boss can break a union
drive by threatening to hire lower paid women or blacks. In many cases, where
women are organized, the union contract reinforces their inferior position,
making women the least loyal and militant union members. (Standard Oil workers
in San Francisco recently paid the price of male supremacy. Women at Standard
Oil have the least chance for advancement and decent pay, and the union has done
little to fight this. Not surprisingly, women formed the core of the back to
work move that eventually broke the strike.) In general,
because women are defined as docile, helpless, and inferior, they are forced
into the most demeaning and mind rotting jobs--from scrubbing floors to filing
cards--under the most oppressive conditions where they are treated like children
or slaves. Their very position reinforces the idea, even among the women
themselves, that they are fit for and should be satisfied with this kind of
work. Apart from the direct, material exploitation of women,
male supremacy acts in more subtle ways to undermine class consciousness. The
tendency of male workers to think of themselves primarily as men (i.e.,
powerful) rather than as workers (i. e., members of an oppressed group) promotes
a false sense of privilege and power, and an identification with the world of
men, including the boss. The petty dictatorship which most men exercise over
their wives and families enables them to vent their anger and frustration in a
way which poses no challenge to the system. The role of the man in the family
reinforces aggressive individualism, authoritarianism, and a hierarchical view
of social relations--values which are fundamental to the perpetuation (不朽) of
capitalism. In this system we are taught to relieve our fears and frustrations
by brutalizing those weaker than we are: a man in uniform turns into a pig; the
foreman intimidates the man on the line; the husband beats his wife, child, and
dog.
