Football is a joke

  Francesco Totti knows all about the weight of a captain’s armband.This sense of responsibility inspired the 28-year-old to score his spectacular 100th, Serie A goal.

  The goal saved his team.AS Roma, from defeat last Sunday.The amazing 30-meter free kick went in as Roma was losing by 3-1 to Inter Milan and helped secure a draw.

  Totti, who captains his national team, Italy, cracked under the pressure during the summer’s Euro 2004 tournament.He was caught spitting at a Danish player during a tough opening match.

  “I did not do it on purpose.I was very nervous at the start of the championship, ”he said.“I was under an enormous amount of pressure.”

  The incident resulted in a three-match ban and some good jokes.

  “Hey, Frankie, where’s Sweden?” a teammate asks Totti about another of Italy’s Group C opponents.

  “Within spitting distance of Denmark, ”comes the answer.

  Jokes do not bother Totti, for during his entire career people have laughed at him.He even launched a best selling Totti Joke book with all profits going to UNICEF.

  At first, the fact that all Italy joked about his Roman accent and lack of intelligence did upset him.

  But he learned to laugh with everyone else.“Mainly, it wasn’t a problem for me.I just didn’t like it that the jokes sometimes included my family, ”he said.“Don’t take yourself so seriously and don’t think that what others say about you is true.”

  Totti spends most of his free time at home-he views it as a refuge.“I’m lucky My girlfriend doesn’t understand anything about football, so I get a break-from the jokes, too.”

You might say that Barack Obama was elected President of the US because he knows how to give a speech. In 2004, the little-known Obama gave a speech at the Democratic National Convention (民主党全国会议). It was a great speech — poetic, and inspiring. The people who heard it would remember it for a long time.

Since 2004, Obama has written and delivered thousands of speeches. There are usually praised for two reasons: he treats the audiences like intelligent adults, and he is able to express complicated ideas in a straightforward, natural way.

Before becoming President, Obama was a lawyer, a college professor, and a successful writer – his two memoirs (回忆录) have become best sellers. The skills he needed to succeed in his previous jobs have also contributed to his success as a speechmaker.

As a lawyer, Obama learned how to make strong, convincing arguments. As a professor, he learned how to explain complex subjects in ways that helped students understand without boring them. As a writer, he learned how to use languages to have a powerful influence on his audience. A famous American musician even turned one of Obama’s early speeches into a song during the election campaign.

Secret weapons of Obama

Writing team: Obama has a team of people who write his speeches. The writers chat with Obama for hours about what he wants to say. Then listen to recordings of past presidential addresses and seek advice from advisers. Obama usually edits and rewrites the drafts several times.

Make fun of the guests: Obama starts his speech by gently making fun of his guests. His opening lines attract the audience’s attention while giving them an opportunity to relax and laugh at themselves and each other.

Make fun of himself: Obama laughs at his past mistakes and is never afraid of showing them to the public.

Obama delivers speeches to audiences large and small. He can make his audiences laugh or cry. His speeches are always thoughtful, well written and just right for each occasion.
