　　Excellent!

　　Although Sally is only five years old, she has got a very good memory. Just the other day, her father asked her if she was ready for the speech she had to make at her kindergarten on Speech Day. She said, "Of course, I am." Her father asked her to say her speech without referring to the 300-word script which, he believed, was much too long for a kindergarten kid. To his surprise, Sally did it without missing any single word （not even an article） in her ten-minute practice. When she finished her rehearsal, her father gave her a big hand and said,"Excellent!"

　　Learning points:

　　Speech Day 毕业典礼

　　script 演说稿

　　give （somebody） a big hand 对（某人）热烈鼓掌，较为口语化的用法，可以用applaud her 取代。
