演講稿的寫作
演講稿首先開頭要開門見山,既要一下子抓住聽眾又要提出你的觀點(diǎn),中間要用各種方法和所準(zhǔn)備的材料說明、支持你的論點(diǎn),感染聽眾,然后在結(jié)尾加強(qiáng)說明論點(diǎn)或得出結(jié)論,結(jié)束演講。
演講稿的寫作有嚴(yán)格的要求,就內(nèi)容而言要主題鮮明,表達(dá)完整;就文章組織結(jié)構(gòu)而言要思維清晰,邏輯性強(qiáng);就語言而言要有感染力、形象生動。寫作時可根據(jù)需要有效、正確地使用英語寫作方法和技巧,如恰當(dāng)?shù)剡\(yùn)用明喻、暗喻、夸張等各種修辭方法,用詞要準(zhǔn)確,盡量避免使用生僻、模糊、晦澀的字詞??傊紤]聽眾對象,注意演講的措辭,但又要簡明扼要、有理有力、結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊。許多著名的演說家的不朽之作都有振奮人心、扭轉(zhuǎn)乾坤般的力量。從馬?。返拢鸬摹癐 have a dream”,美國總統(tǒng)林肯所作的著名的蓋茨堡演說,到克林頓在北大的演說,不少句子都成為不朽的佳句,值得認(rèn)真研讀。
3. 進(jìn)行演講
具備演講的知識和技巧,演講稿的完成只是演講的序幕,要進(jìn)行成功的演講則要進(jìn)行嚴(yán)格的訓(xùn)練。訓(xùn)練時,分析演講要領(lǐng),訓(xùn)練演講技巧和姿勢語,觀看CCTV杯和愛立信杯等英語演講的錄像,了解并按照比賽評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)進(jìn)行嚴(yán)格的模擬訓(xùn)練,觀察演講過程是否具備以下特點(diǎn):主題鮮明,表達(dá)完整(演講內(nèi)容);思維清晰,邏輯性強(qiáng)(文章組織結(jié)構(gòu));感情充沛,富有表現(xiàn)力(演講氣勢);發(fā)音正確,語音語調(diào)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)(英語語音);反應(yīng)敏捷,回答準(zhǔn)確(心理素質(zhì));著裝整潔,儀態(tài)大方等等。
除此之外,還要有良好的心理素質(zhì)。多進(jìn)行模擬演講,有良好的心理素質(zhì),才能更好地表現(xiàn)自己,取得演講的良好效果。有的同學(xué)能講一口地道的美式英語,但由于缺乏良好的心理素質(zhì)而怯場,甚至在比賽中緊張得說不出話來或有一些不良的舉止而被淘汰出局。
有了充分的準(zhǔn)備,進(jìn)行演講就不太難了。在演講的整個過程中還要注意一些演講的要領(lǐng)與技巧,如演講者與聽眾目光的接觸(eye contact),聲音的抑揚(yáng)頓挫(vocal variety),和肢體語言的配合(hand gestures and body language)等等,但要恰當(dāng),不要太多,否則會喧賓奪主,影響演講效果。
掌握了這些要領(lǐng),有了充分的知識儲備,再加上良好的心理素質(zhì),一定會成功的.
