Public speaking is like any skill. The more you do it, the better you get at it. Here is the only advice you need: Make eye contact with your listeners. Even if you’re nervous, nobody will know. If your audience sees you looking at them, they’ll look back and connect with you.

Start by reviewing your journal entry to make sure you have used specific details from the text to support your defense. Make sure you have at least two or three details.

Then, record a video of yourself pretending to be Zachariah’s lawyer. Pretend your revised journal entry is your "opening statement" in the trial and you are speaking to the jury and the judge.

Use any video recording device available to you. A cell phone or a webcam is perfect. Be sure to speak clearly and maintain appropriate eye contact. You might even practice with a friend, a parent, or in front of a mirror first.

If you don’t have the equipment and can’t record and upload a video, give the speech to a friend, a parent, or just a mirror. When you’re done, write a reflection in your journal about your experience. Consider what you did well and what you might do differently next time. The reflection should be about 150 words.

Answer:

"How can I help?"

This was the only thought on young Pablo's mind after the hurricane as he looked at the fallen trees, [1] toppled power lines * and homes without roofs in their town.

"Is that bicycle yours?" asked Mr Sanchez.

Pablo said, "Yes, it's mine."

"Then jump on its seat and ride to the community centre [2]. You can help make ten thousand ham and cheese sandwiches for folks who were evacuated."

Explanation:

[1] comma should be added to separate the list since there are more than two items.

* you may wish to add a comma here too depending on whether you follow US or UK conventions

[2] you don't have to change this if you're using american spelling

i hope this helps! :D sorry if i missed anything.
