> Look at the text below. In 35 seconds, you must read this text aloud as naturally and clearly as possible. You have 40 seconds to read aloud.

Training to become an actor is an intensive process that requires curiosity, courage, and commitment. You'll learn how to prepare for rehearsal, rehearse, and use independent and proactive processes to achieve your best work possible for stage and screen.

## Explanation

Give each word in "curiosity, courage, and commitment" equal weight, with a short pause at each comma. Say "intensive" and "rehearsal" with stress on the second syllable. Read "independent and proactive processes" carefully, as it has many syllables. Pause briefly before "for stage and screen."

## Hints

- Focus on the rhythm of the sentence, pausing briefly at commas to allow the listener to process the list of qualities.
- Ensure the final phrase regarding stage and screen is delivered with a slight downward inflection to signal the end of the thought.
