His back aches, his red suit feels like a spacesuit, his cheeks have gone tight from smiling for 12 hours and still the kids keep coming and coming, like ants at a picnic. As Christmas becomes more commercialized（商業(yè)化）across the U.S. a

26、nd Canada, so must Santas. As the holiday begins earlier each year, so must its spokesmen.The questions from children these days are harder than ever. Now, with thousands of children expecting a father or mother serving in Iraq or Afghanistan, the questions are as heart-breaking as they are unanswer

27、able. For example, “Can you please bring Daddy home from the war in time for Christmas morning? ”Santas also have a pretty good chance of getting sued（指控）. A professional Santa Claus in Canada told a story : A Santa had a girl on his knee, and he commented , “You have nice eyes and nice hair.” The g

28、irl later said it was sexual harassment（騷擾）.

In this course there are no tests or exams, only class presentations. I have recently prepared my PowerPoint and will study the material.

32、 I am not very knowledgeable in the material. I have not had to speak in public since high school which was many years ago.

33、lete this. I am, for lack of a better word, terrified.AnswerBeing a shy person is not really a factor in giving a presentation. Your focus should be on providing information for the other students. Think of yourself as a teacher or an instructor and not as someone who is trying to show how good he i

34、s.The fact that you are using a PowerPoint presentation takes an enormous amount of pressure off you. With a speech, there is the fear of forgetting what you are going to say.
