I am doing an oral book report for school tomorrow, and I tend to get very nervous. I get shaky, sweaty, and when I get up to give it, I tend to talk fast. When this happens, my mouth gets full of saliva, and I swallow during the middle of my sentences, making it sound choppy and hard to follow. I need some ideas on how to keep the anxiety and nervousness down long enough to give a 2 minute report. Any advice anyone could give would be appreciated.

She believes that if a state “takes someone’s life” (Charen 700), it should “be for one reason only-to exact punishment for a heinous crime” (Charen 700). She doubts how effective the judicial system would remain if organs were taken away from executed criminals, as she describes: “imagine if judges and juries were also considering how many lives could be saved” (Charen 700) with the use of healthy organs. Essentially, she is arguing that it would be unfair and immoral to impact the criminal’s right to a fair trial by questioning the number of lives that could be saved if the criminals were put...
