篇一：英语公众演讲

Change the Unchangeable

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen,

There is such a person in the world, who is tortured by severe diseases and being squeezed in a wheel cruelly during his remaining life but with nothing to do. However, Stephen Hocking, the famous British physicist, is now known as Einstein. He has exactly changed the unchangeable, as far as I'm concerned.

Though many things surround us can not be changed, why should we change the unchangeable Improving ourselves, is the basic reason. It covers many aspects, doing well in our health, work, study and so on. Let's just look back to the past, my friends, when we feel that we've made progress in our life, we have definitely already changed the impossible that we used to regard as.

Maybe what has happened is so difficult to be changed. It is just like that Stephen Hocking’s aches can’t be cured. Even so, we can learn from the wise Hocking to change the unchangeable in another way.

Napoleon said that the man who has made up his mind to win will never say impossible. So don’t worry about it, and just change the attitude towards the unchangeable. Don’t worry about it, and just try your best to change the unchangeable. Don’t worry about it, and just conquer the unchangeable finally.

That’s all, thank you.

篇二：英语公众演讲技巧Public Speaking Skills - How To Persuade People

Public Speaking Skills - How To Persuade People Persuasion is the key to accomplishment, not only for politicians or stockbrokers（股票经纪人）, but for everyone of us. In a job interview, you have to persuade your interviewers why they should hire you and not the other candidates. In a classroom presentation, you have to convince your classmates and professor to believe that what you are talking about is worth listening to, and your hard work deserves a good grade. In a workplace, you need to be able to pitch your ideas persuasively in order to prosper （繁荣，昌盛；成功）in your career. If you look at highly successful people, you will see that they are not only hard workers and creative

thinkers, but also great persuaders.

In public speaking, it all comes down to this question: how can you win over your audience And the answer is one word: CREDIBILITY.

Imagine Bill Gates saying the following hypothetical sentences:

"Within ten years, all laptop computers will also be used as televisions. The televisions we use nowadays will turn into something completely old-fashioned."

Now imagine Britney Spears saying the same thing. You would probably nod at Gates and shrug（耸肩） at Spears, right You would choose to trust his judgment rather than hers because you know that he is a guru （领袖，专家)of the computer industry and she is not. This is called "initial credibility", meaning the credibility that the speaker has even before he/she begins speaking.

Initial credibility is a blissful（充满喜悦的）advantage for public speakers. If your audience already knows you are an expert in something and already trusts you, you won't have to try so hard to create credibility in your speech. But what if you are not really an expert

in anything and your audience doesn't even know who you are The answer is simple: you will have to build your credibility during your speech.

How to Build Your Credibility

1. Advertise your competence - At the beginning of your presentation, tell your audience about your expertise on the speech topic. If you have done a lot of research about the topic, tell them so. If you have a certain experience that gives you special knowledge or insight, go ahead and say so. But keep in mind; you don't want to sound boastful（自夸，自负的） to your audience. Do not over-advertise yourself. Keep it short and simple. Say it as a matter of fact, not a boast.

2. Connect to the audience - Try to identify with （认为…等同于，与一致）your audience early in your speech. Even if you are going to talk about something very controversial or something your listeners may disagree with, you still have to make them feel that you share the same common ground and values.

Four years ago, I watched Senator John Kerry give a speech about keeping woman's rights to abortion in one of the "red" states, in a room

full of conservative voters who were probably strongly against such an idea. At the start of his speech, he made a very smart move by saying that he himself is also a true Christian who believes abortion is not the right thing to do. Then he explained further that even though that is what he believes, there are also a lot of people in America who do not consider abortion a sinful（有罪的）thing; there are a number of Americans who are not Christians and do not share his religious principles. And since America is a democratic country, we have to respect those people's values as well.

I think Senator Kerry was impressive that day. By establishing common ground with the audience early, he was able to get off on the right foot. I don't know how many people in the audience he had successfully convinced, but at least he pulled off that extremely controversial speech with such poise and more importantly, without getting booed.

3. Speak eloquently（['elkwntli]善辩地；富于表现力地）and express your ideas with conviction - Practice your persuasive speech ahead of time so that you can

perform it well. Moderately（适度地；中庸地；有节制地）fast speakers tend to be considered more intelligent and confident than slow speakers. If you sound hesitant or say "uh" and "um" too much, you will appear less competent.

4. Use evidence - For amateur public speakers with no initial credibility,

it is very helpful to use examples, statistics, facts or testimonies to support their ideas. No matter what type of evidence you use in your speech, just remember these two things:

First, use specific evidence. For example, if you use statistics, indicate the exact number. Saying "Ten million Americans suffer from obesity" will make your point more effectively than just saying "Millions of Americans suffer from obesity." It will make your listeners aware that you have a good firm grip of factual information. Second, always cite evidence from well-known, reliable and non-biased sources.

5. Reason clearly and persuasively- Even if you use

a bunch of strong evidence, you still won't be able to persuade your audience unless they grasp your reasoning.

Don't assume that supportive evidence is enough. Throwing a lengthy list of statistics and examples at your listeners without drawing a logical conclusion to your main idea won't do you any good.

6. Appeal to emotions - Some people say that serious public speakers should avoid emotional appeal entirely and only stick to reason. I disagree with that. Humans are not like automatons or Mr. Spock in Star Trek. We think and feel at the same time. By adding intensity of feeling to your logical speech, you can be a much more compelling speaker. A rational persuasive speech that can change some people's attitudes may not arouse those same people enough to take action. In order to convince your listeners not only to agree with your ideas but also adopt them in real life, you must evoke their passion. Use words or phrases that tend to reinforce emotional power. It is hard to pinpoint what words can sentimentally influence people more than others. It depends mostly on what topic you are talking about and what kind of emotion you would like to arouse in the audience. However, try not to be too wordy or say something overly melodramatic. Your

passionate language must suit your speech, otherwise it may strike the audience as ridiculous.

Use vivid personal experience. By telling the audience about your captivating real life story that is relevant to the speech topic, you automatically let your emotional appeal grow. The video below is a great example of how a public speaker can use one's personal experience to one's own advantage.

Unless you are a really competent actor, don't act. Speak with sincerity[sin'serti] and your true emotion. Using emotional language and vivid experience can be pointless if you don't actually feel the emotion yourself.

【0】引言

英语公众演讲，对于绝大多数中国人，乃至于大多数大

学生来说，都是一个相对陌生又稍有了解的东西。我们很多学生看过“乔布斯在斯坦福大学的演讲”，也听过“娜塔莉·波特曼在母校哈佛大学的演讲”，听来的确振奋人心同时又款款深情。也许我们想过,何时我也能写出这么出色的一篇演讲，在众人面前发表，赢得掌声同欢呼，但随即在我们汉语母语的环境下丧失了这个想法。汉语演讲与英语演讲在诸如引起情绪，肢体动作等许多方面有相似之处，但由于语言特点和环境的不同，往往也会有大量的差异存在。了解英语公众演讲的性质与特点，对我们非英语专业的学生来说，在以后国际化的应用环境中有非常多的实用之处，下面本文将会细致地对英语公众演讲做出探究与分析。

【1】什么是英语公众演讲

Stephen Lucas 教授关于英语公众演讲有这样一句话：“public speaking is the way of making your ideas public, of sharing them with other people and influencing them”，这是从演讲的效果上来着眼，我们演讲的最终小伙就是为了将自己的观点想法公之于众，与大家分享交流，并能影响到大家的思想，所谓“得人心者”即有这样的含义。

Public speaking is the process of speaking to a group of people in a structured, deliberate manner intended to inform, influence, or entertain the audiences.

公众演讲是一个过程，以一种有构造的、精心准备的礼仪来知会大家、影响大家、娱乐大家的一个过程。诚然，公众演讲与一般交谈、讲座授课具备着这样的仪式性，礼仪性和鼓动性。

The purpose of public speaking can range from simply transmitting information, to motivating people to act, or to simply to telling a story.

一场出色成功的公众演讲，往往能引发听众的情绪，最简单的也能让大家获得一些觉得有用的信息，更为杰出的就是激起听者的热情去行动，但也许有些时候，只是讲述一个故事也能打动在场的观众，让大家潸然泪下。公众演讲依据演讲者的不定性，这是它的魅力所在，没人能知道这场演讲回达到什么样的效果。 Public speaking is not a new trend. 英语公众演讲的历史对于我们来说，可能是一个十分新颖陌生的事物，但演讲的历史，等同于人类开始讲话的历史，正如辩论源于争吵，公众演讲源于在群体面前的鼓动性谈话。有历史记载的公众演讲书籍在4500年前的埃及就已经出世，足以知道公众演讲的历史渊源，但缺乏一个载体和技艺的本体有让它难以像其他艺术品和文物一样给大家这种文化的深度震撼。

Why do you learn public speaking

对我们学生来说，为什么要学习英语公众演讲这项技能，

就像我问我的寝室室友一样，他们觉得这是一项听来“高大上”实则缺乏应用的技能。

下面是我根据资料列出的一些基本实用之处：

To enhance students’ language proficiency and presentation skills.

增强一个学生的语言精练性和表达技能，尤其是在英语方面。

To boost up self-confidence of students and the interest of speaking English.

一个好的英语公众演讲者，这样的头衔总会激发学生的自信以及长久的学习热情。

To broaden the students’ horizon so that they can gain encyclopedic knowledge. 在国际通用语乃英语的情形下，熟知英语公众演讲几乎等同于把我们的认知边际扩大到了国际领域。

To help students develop critical thinking skills.

发展我们的批判性思维。

To help students gain an awareness of intercultural communication.

对中文环境下长大的我们，这样的英语氛围会让我们了解到不同的文化特点。

【2】如何实现一场优秀的英语公众演讲

Initial considerations

the audience

分析听众，听众是演讲的接受者，如同顾客是上帝一样，听众对于一个演讲者来说就是他的上帝，考虑到听众的接受水平，文化背景，思想层次等是一个演讲者第一步的准备。

a topic

找一个合适的话题极为关键，可以通过自己个人的知识，背景，以前的经历（尤以特殊的经历）作为切入点，往往能率先激发自己的感情。通过头脑风暴的一些方式来挖掘有兴趣的话题：personal list、clustering、references、search engine

a purpose

选择演讲的目的决定了我们怎么寻找材料，确定在演讲中最基本的两个期望： Determining the general purpose Determining the specific purpose

a thesis statement

论点是整个公众演讲所环绕的东西，演讲紧紧地扣住论点给人一种浑然一体的整合性。

Gathering supporting materials

of materials

查找资料的方式有很多种，但对于我们学生来说，基本的四种方式一般为： Personal knowledge

Materials in library

Internet

interview

of supporting materials

支撑材料的类型根据它的效果和意图而分：

Description

Definition

Examples

Statistics

Testimony

Visual/audio support

Comparison and contrast

for selecting materials

在以上方式的指引下，我们都能找到大量的材料和论据，但对一个演讲来说，需要的是精辟简短而非纷繁冗杂，这就需要我们来筛选材料。问自己四个问题：信息是否与观点相关？

信息能否佐证观点？

信息是否合时宜？

是否有逻辑相关性？

plagiarism

我们能参考别人的观点但绝对不能抄袭别人的想法，引

用需注明出处，同时对于他人信息观点的整合再创造也是一种能力，对于以后我们的发展十分关键。 Outlining Preparation outlines

列出关于我们演讲的基本提纲：包括标题、目的、论点、中心思想等等，在撰写演讲稿之前形成一个清晰的认识。

Speaking outlines

演讲大纲大致等同于我们脑中的提示词，同时也是制作PPT的关键元素，他们构成了我们的口头演讲。

Sentence, phrase, and key-word outlines

飞来之语，生动的描述与关键词在演讲中我们都不想错过，忽视了这些通常会让一段演讲黯然失色，这部分的再强调有利于我们加深印象。

Developing an attention-getting introduction

Major types of attention raising

questions

提问一些问题让听众去思考，而不是单方面去接受，同时能衔接接下来的叙述。

information and statistics

适时给大家一些令人震惊的信息和数据，能立刻吸引听众的兴趣。

讲述自己或者他人的一个故事，“千金难买好故事”，但一定要着重注意故事的新颖和扣题。没有讲好一个故事会适

得其反。

Organizing the body of the presentation

for determining main points

Keep in mind the specific purpose

时时确立自己的演讲的中心目的，不要在相关的地方走得太远。

Provide sufficient support

确保中心观点一直被支持，没有这个作用的语句可以删繁就简。

Limit the number of main points

主要观点做到简而精，把中心观点划分的太过细致会造成冗杂的即视感。

the main points

Topical pattern

如果是这种模式，需要对观点进行分类，再汇集到一个主要观点上。

Problem-solution pattern

这种模式通常是先提出问题和影响，再提出自己的观点和解决办法。

supporting materials

组织自己的材料需要注意两个问题：unity /balance 不可忽视材料的整体性同时每个部分的平衡要保持适度比例，

这样整个演讲也更充实而没有偏倚感。 Developing the conclusion

your conclusion

标示出整个演讲的结论，强调自己的观点同时提醒听众演讲已经进入尾声，保证他们对最终观点有足够的注意力。

the topic, purpose and thesis

重述自己的论点、目的再次给大家留下一层印象。

the main points

Transitioning to questions

转换到提问环节，这个环节在某些场合十分重要，提问的准备能让回答问题更加自然而不至于慌乱失措。

the conclusion together

将结论精简为一句话，给大家留下深刻印象，而不是大段的结论，华而不实。

【3】演讲的润色与打磨

完成一篇演讲的初步设计后，还需要做一些润色和改进，以获得更精彩绝伦的效果。在公众演讲的构造过程中，我们几乎考虑了所有结构和观点、论据的问题，在精简性方面也已经做得不差几分。但公众演讲有他的表演性，自然也得像做一场精心准备的表演一样，还需要在连接和语言，视觉效果上做出锤炼 Connectives

精彩的连接词让演讲过度的平和自然，密不透风，而缺

乏好的连接词会让一些片段听起来毫无逻辑。

previews

在演讲里面做出后面的预演，会形成如同铺垫的效果，到正式部分时会给听众一种熟悉感。

summaries

在演讲某部分内部做出小的总结，也会对后文结论形成扣环的效果。

数字型的“路标指示”能让听众知道讲到何处，便于分神等原因后快速切入到演讲中来。

Presenting with effective language

of the presentation language

·KISS principle(keep it short, simple)

保持简短与简洁是一条基本的准则

·common, everyday words

运用日常用语能让大家听起来更加清晰易懂

【精英选手】什么样的人可以一边遍游世界地工作，一边在顶尖商学院读书？

XX-01-15

全国各地的地区决赛陆续落幕，“21世纪杯”大家庭又迎来了新一届的小伙伴。小二总说“21世纪杯人才辈出”，这绝对不是自吹自擂！今天小二为大家请来了第七届“21世纪杯”全国英语演讲比赛的季军、当年的“最具潜力奖”获得者——张勇来跟大家聊聊关于英语和演讲的那些事儿。
