Reading out loud can help you practice your pronunciation, intonation, and pacing. You can also practice speaking by recording yourself and listening to the recordings to identify areas where you need to improve.<br /><br />Another way to improve your speaking skills is to join a speaking club or organization. Speaking clubs provide a supportive environment where you can practice your speaking skills and receive feedback from other members. You can also attend workshops and training sessions to learn new techniques and improve your skills further.

There is a concern that some of the issues are even being debated, it started as a rather bemused 'you never guess what was said or suggested' such as banning Muslims entering the UK to an OMG some people actually believe this ****. I was listening to our ABC radio talking about how 20% of Trump supporters in South Carolina disagreed with abolishing slavery. <br />This is no solace to the Bloggers above, but it is making for a really interesting US election. All I can say that as I am a firm believer in the democratic process so I am sure it will be alright on the night.

I agree that it is surprising that anyone would think the republican party 's proposals in this 2106 race would be good for the country.

What I do think we are witnessing is the implosion of the Republican Party. I don't ever recall so many egotistical and unqualified Presidential candidates running at the same time. It's unfortunate that many people don't want to understand that their Republican candidate of choice is going to keep them in their insecure rut of a hole rather than help them out. <br /><br />Hope and faith in the positive, Judy!<br /><a href="http://www.su-sieeemac.com/2016/03/cows-smiling-in-air.html" rel="nofollow">The View from the Top of the Ladder</a> Su-sieee!

Our granddaughter, Grace, was recently in Cuba to take a course and found that the literacy rate in Cuba is 97%. In America it is only 86%. Not only that, EVERYONE has a place to live there. There are no homeless on the streets. Don't misunderstand me--I'm not espousing communism at all, but from what Grace has told me, Cuba is more socialist than communist. She was very surprised.<br /><br />As for the GOP candidates, it hurts my heart to see such a worthless bunch of liars, cheats, and thieves who want to run our country. Trump has started a civil war in America, and his army is made up of ignorant misfits who see only Trump's wealth and think that he will give them the secret. I consider him to be an enemy combatant, and wonder just how much his life is actually worth.<br /><br />H, it has been a tough struggle adjusting to life in the deep south, and I have not felt much like writing until lately. I'm surprised that I am the only American who writes about the blight on America caused by the GOP.<br />Judiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778815502961000469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-59572037590846450042016-03-03T08:55:11.570-08:002016-03-03T08:55:11.570-08:00So good to see a post from your Judith!!

I despair for the US - a country I happen to know and love. I hope that something happens to encourage sane and knowledgeable people to rise up out of their apathy and take hold of their political process before it is too late.

What a loss to all of us. She and her beautiful photos will be sorely missed.<br /><br />I didn't know Sally, but my condolences to all who did. Now I understand a comment Jim made on my blog yesterday. Losing old friends brings such heartache.<br /><br />As for the election, I am completely dumbfounded by what's happening and cannot believe so many voters are indulging their anger, however justifiable, to the detriment of their reason. Cutting off one's nose to spite one's face is not a good cure for what ails us, and everyone I speak to agrees with me. So my question is, who ARE these supporters? I simply cannot imagine electing a man whose limited vision and vocabulary are only exceeded by his vulgarity. And I have never been a fan of narcissists. <br /><br />Susan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049586085703324088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-75797529289818617402016-03-03T05:23:46.903-08:002016-03-03T05:23:46.903-08:00Wow!

Anne, I didn't know Sally, but EG and I had been commenting back and forth for many years. What a tragedy that is! I am so sorry to hear it.<br /><br />Betty, I am just so tired of politics, and try to stay off the tv during the day. I don't even watch my programs at night, but record them so I don't have to see any political ads and can skip through the commercials.<br /><br />Jim, the GOP has spent billions of our tax dollars trying to discredit intelligent candidates and remove important government programs. During the Bush administration, many GOP members used private email and got called on it, but THEIR emails mysteriously disappeared and the issue was dropped. All those jackasses are costing this country a lot more money than they are worth, and have only added to the national debt, but their followers just refuse to understand what they've done. Try bringing in facts, and they stick their fingers in their ears and sing "lalalalalalala!!!"<br />Judiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778815502961000469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-48305590905180531642016-03-02T22:49:24.985-08:002016-03-02T22:49:24.985-08:00Hello my friend!

Since we were ex'ed out of Facebook by mean and nasty hackers. Argh.....<br />I don't know if you knew Smiling Sally (DiStefano) from Blue Monday but she passed away yesterday. We knew she had been ill for quite some time but she was the most ind and charming lady. SHe will be sorely missed. We lost EG CameraGirl and her hubby to a car accident too Febraury 22nd. She was one incredible photographer.<br />Life is fast so I have to tell my friends here that you really do warm my heart. Thanks Judie, I know you are always sharing your honest opinion.<br />Take care and enjoy your grandkids!

Yes, our politi...Hi Judy, I have been missing you. Yes, our political scene is horrid. I tell people that we have to vote for the best of the worst. That is hard to tell, THEY ALL LIE. I don't know much about Rubio's father, but Cruz's was an illegal alien seeking amnesty like so many of the kids who are now coming from Mexico. He was granted AMNESTY, the word Ted despises (hypocrite). I imagine his Texas house was built by the illegals, most around here are to some extent. Yet he doesn't want any of them to have a break like his dad did. They should have sent him back. Did you hear him say his dad worked for 50 cents and hour working his way through school? That may have been in the library working for spending money but OUR GOVERNMENT paid his tuition and costs (Texas does that, we are educating all those who come in, don't want any undereducated here if they will stay in school. Middle class students don't qualify for that, they can get student loans.)<br /><br />If Ted becomes president the Congress will be rid of a real obstacle, like we were rid of Bush and finally Perry has retired. They both brought our state way down for the middle classes. Finally the Republican Party is slowly waking up but the only sensible candidates have dropped out or can't win.<br /><br />I may vote for Hillary (November) even if she is in prison. She could preside from there like some other politicians do their work from prison. Martha Stewart went there and look at her now. Humbled her a little but she's fine.<br /> <br />Sorry to say all this, but AMERICA IS FED UP with who we've let run the government. Now we want a change, ____ or ____.<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-34924629771428028872016-03-02T19:50:17.212-08:002016-03-02T19:50:17.212-08:00I just can't believe what is happening.

The other candidates were initially intimidated by him. Now it's too late. I've lost respect for all of them. I don't know what to say. I've been upset since he disrespected John McCain and thus all the Vietnam POW's. I thought for sure that would be the end, but it wasn't. I find myself just watching in disbelief and shaking my head. I'd like to build a wall around him. Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068151073417372746noreply@blogger.com
