When a speaker shares his personal stories he will be better accepted by the audience. He can kid about his fame, problems, image, etc.

17、 However, he does not have to belittle himself or sacrifice his reputation for a laugh. Besides, the jokes and humorous stories that are used by the speaker have to relate directly to the topic of his speech. The speaker is supposed to speak clearly and keep from laughing at his own story or joke wh

22、s starting to seem like it. Everybody hates them. These days a typical Internet user has dozens of online accounts. If you really want to bu safe, you need to generate a different password for each one, and each password needs to extremely complicated, with a mix of letters, symbols, and numbers. Wh
