  演讲或发言是自我展示的机会,几乎所有人都有可能在某个时候被要求做或长或短的发言。怎样成为一个能吸引听众的演说者呢?

  How to Give a Good Speech

  We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. Here are some suggestions on how to give a good speech.

  First of all, it is important to plan. Do your homework. Find out everything you can about your subject. And, at the same time, find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they? What do they know about your subject? Do they have a common interest? Why are they coming to hear you speak? Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech①. Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion.

  Let us suppose that you have been asked to introduce the main speaker at a meeting. First, find out the most important and interesting things about the speaker. Then, summarize this information in a few words. Remember, you are not the main speaker; you are introducing the main speaker.

  If you are giving a lecture or explaining an idea, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures or charts if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them②. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

  If you follow these simple steps, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you ask to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.

  如何做好发言

  在生活中,我们都会碰到这样的时候:被邀请做一个发言。然而,我们中的大部分人都做不好这件事。关于如何做好发言,下面给大家提几点建议。

  首先,做计划这一点相当重要。发言之前做好充分准备,对你发言的主题尽可能地了解。同时,还要尽可能地了解你的听众,他们是什么人?他们对你发言的主题有怎样的了解?他们是否有共同的兴趣?他们为何来听你发言?当你准备发言稿的时候,别忘了站在他们的角度考虑考虑。请你记住,一定要准备充分。对发言的主题、听众、以及场合要心中有数。

  假设你要在一次会议上介绍主要发言人。首先,你应该发掘出关于那位发言人最重要、最有趣的事情。然后用几句话来概括挖掘到的相关信息。请记住,你并非主要发言人;你的职责是介绍那位主要发言人。

  假如你要做一个讲座,或讲解一种观点,务必围绕主题收集尽可能多的材料。要花大量的时间进行研究。此后,还要花大量时间将材料有条理地整合在一起,以便使你的发言清晰易懂。尽可能多地使用例证,为了使讲解更为清晰,必要时可使用图片或图表。要始终把听众记在心上。不要高谈阔论,超出他们的理解范围,也不要以居高临下的口气对他们说话。尊重你的听众,他们会感谢你的体贴。

  只要你按照这些简单的步骤来做,你便会发现在公共场合发言并不可怕。事实上,你甚至会觉得这种经验是一种享受,还希望有更多的发言机会呢!你还将信将疑吗?那么,试一试这个方法,看看会怎样。
