So i'm doing this thing in class tomorrow where you pick a topic and have 1 minute to think about what you're going to say and then speak about it for 1 minute. i'm extreamly nervous. any tips on how to deal with this?

Hey c: I also get nervous for anything related to presenting, haha.

Are the topics randomly given to you, or are you able to choose one? If you're able to choose, I would definitely pick something you're interested in already, ahead of time, and maybe even do some quick internet research about it.

Otherwise,

- If you have to stand in front of people and look at them, a good tip for seeming like you're making eye contact is to not look at their face but instead to fixate on a point a bit above their head. You won't have to make eye contact, and they can't tell the difference.

-If you fidget when you're nervous, do it with an object behind your back so people won't see it.

We did this at the beginning of this year lolol. But as long as you get to pick the topic you should be fine, because then you have full control about what you are speaking about so you should choose something you are very familiar with. Other than that just make sure everyone can hear you, remember to stay on topic, and don’t fidget or look down a lot.

C. He often volunteers at the animal shelter.

Explanation:

A verb in the active voice expresses an action done by its subject. In other words, the subject performs the action expressed by the verb. This can be seen only in C. The subject he performs the action (volunteers at the animal shelter).
