FOR THE REMAINING 20 PERCENT, THE FOLLOWING TIPS WILL HELP YOU BETTER PREPARE FOR A PUBLIC SPEECH AND TO BETTER DELIVER, STARTING TODAY. 【A1】______ PART OF BEING NERVOUS DURING AN ORAL OR PRESENTATION IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOU FEEL LIKE YOU WILL FORGET CRITICAL PIECES OF INFORMATION OR THAT YOU WILL GET UP FRONT OF EVERYONE AND FORGET EVERYTHIN
