MY VOCAB PRACTICE
Most of the students were noticeably nervous as they entered the exam room, probably because their results would count towards 50% of their overall grade.
The villagers praised the courageous hunter who succeded in killing the wolves who had been terrorising them for months, thanks to him they could now rest easy knowing they were safe.
The attack on the woman was so insidious she suffered from severe PTSD and spent many years after with a psychiatrist to try and help her heal and overcome her trauma.
The student was intelligent, confidant, verbose and well presented, making her an ideal candidate for head of the school debate team.

My Vocab Practice:
1.- Many people feel nervous when the opportunity to speak in public presents itself.
2.-It is not brave who vociferates, it is brave who is courageous in the face of difficulties.
3.-His insidious behavior did not allow the dialogue to succeed.
4.- I do not like to talk too much in the first meeting. I do not want to give the impression of being a verbose person.
