Public speaking 英语演讲要求
Public speaking 英语演讲∙Definition: Public speaking is an important skill,not only for academic life, but also for life in theworkplace.∙Websites for public speaking: t his is the main website for NFL, (National Forensic League. It is an organization that governs debating in the U. S.) this website has audio files and/or text of the 100 most famous American speeches given in the modern era, one of which is “I have a Dream” by Martin Luther King.∙The types of speeches:∙Impromptu speeches: students will make a 3 minute speech on a variety of topics in which they have only two minutes of preparation. Impromptuspeeches don‟t use visual aids or note cards.∙Dramatic interpretation, poetry interpretation, prose interpretation, or humorous speeches: Students will select a passage from a piece of literature,memorize it, and then give a brief introduction to it and dramatically recite itfrom memory in front of the class. (5 to 8 minutes)∙Original oratory: Students will research and write a speech on a topic of their choosing, and memorize it. Notes: many orations deal with a currentproblem and propose a solution, and yet, this is not the only acceptable formof oratory. Your oration may simply alert the audience to a threateningdanger, strengthen its devotion to an accepted cause, or eulogize a person. Anorator is given free choice of subject and judged solely on the effectivenessof development and presentation.∙Oral Presentation RubricHere are some of the things that you should keep in mind when giving oral presentations and speeches. Teachers use many of the following criteria to evaluate your speeches. Please note that some of the following items don‟t pertain to certain types of speechesDelivery:This section assesses how well the presentation is “delivered.”It includes the following areas:∙Speech style: What style of delivery does the speaker employ: does he or she read his presentation from a script or does he or she use note cards or anoutline as a memory prompt and then speak extemporaneously, or does he orshe speak solely from memory? The scripted style is more accurate but notvery dynamic or engaging. The extemporaneous style is more flexible andmore dynamic but can result in errors from a faulty memory. Thememorized speech is the most flexible, but also the most prone to committingerrors.∙Eye contact: Does the presenter establish eye contact with the audience throughout his/her presentation? Good eye contact can help to establish agood rapport with the audience and keep their attention focused on thespeaker.∙Voice Quality: This includes the volume of the spea ker‟s voice, how well the speaker projects his or her voice, and the tone and pitch of the speaker‟svoice.∙Non-verbal gestures: Speakers communicate not only with the words they speak, but also with their bodies and their gestures. Hand gestures, facialgestures, and body posture are some of the things that can enhance apresentation or detract from it if not used effectively.∙Repetition: Does the speaker repeat words, phrases to excess? Some key concepts or key vocabulary items in a presentation are worthy of repetition;other times, nervous speakers tend to be overly repetitious, which causes thepresentation to drag and become tedious. Also, does the speaker use “vocalpauses” excessively?Vocal pauses are words or phrases such as “um,”“uh,” “okay,” “all right,” “you know,” and the ubiquitous “like” that thespeaker unconsciously uses to fill in any pauses in his or her presentation).∙Interactivity: Does the presenter attempt to include his audience by asking questions, making them perform exercises, or discussing? Most forms ofdebate have little if any interactivity in them.∙Length: Is the presentation of appropriate length? Overly long presentations or presentations that are tooShort may adversely affect the quality of the presentation.English ability:This section assesses the speaker‟s English ability during the presentation:∙Pronunciation: This assesses both a speaker‟s “accent” as well as his or her ability to pronounce English words correctly and apply appropriatestress. Ac cent refers to how much a speaker‟s first language interferes withhis or pronunciation of English sounds (e.g. …th‟ sounds, …l and n‟ sounds, …r‟sounds, etc.)∙Oral fluency: This assesses the rhythm and rate of the speaker‟s English. Does the presenter speak too slowly or too rapidly?∙English Grammar: Does the speaker have a command of Englishgrammar? Does the speaker make many mistakes in syntax or morphology?(e.g. misuse of the articles …the‟ …a‟ and …an‟, misuse of non-count nouns (e.g.“many informations” or “stuffs”), or lack of agreement (e.g. “Everybodyturned in their test.”)∙Vocabulary: Does the speaker have a broad range of English vocabulary in his or her lexicon? Does he or she use these words accurately?∙Overall intelligibility: Is the speaker comprehensible? This refers to how a presenter‟s pronunciation, oral fluency, and use of English grammar combineto make him or her understandable to his or her audience.Use of Materials: This section applies to how well the presenter uses materials and visual aids to enhance his or her presentation. In most instances, visual aids are extremely valuable at reinforcing what the speaker says. Naturally, in some types of speeches, the speaker is not allowed to use visual aids (e.g. impromptu speeches, original oratory, and policy debates).∙Visual Aids: Does the presenter use handouts, visual aids (e.g. the blackboard, posters, photos, etc.), and/or other devises (e.g. computer, tape-recorder,PowerPoint, realia1) to improve the quality of the presentation?∙Accuracy and relevance of materials: Is the information accurate and relevant to his or her topic?∙Use of articles: Does the presenter give the audience a useful article that contains information relevant to his or her presentation?∙Future use of the materials given to the audience: Are the materials user-friendly so that the audience can use them at a future date? I.e. does theauthor explain and describe his terms or does he or she just give the audiencean outline of the presentation and expect them to fill in the outline with theirown notes?Content: Is the presentation informative and relevant to the topic? Content is assessed in the following ways:∙Accuracy: Is the information accurate?∙Relevance: Is the information relevant to the speaker‟s assigned topic?∙Support: Does the speaker support his main points with facts, statistics, examples, quotations, or anecdotes?∙Weight of content: Does the presenter spend the most time on the most important parts or does he or she get bogged down in less important parts ofthe presentation? This is more important in a longer presentation and in agroup presentation.∙Overall Quality of the content: At the end of the presentation, has the audience learned a lot about your topic? Have you taught the audienceanything that is informational, useful, and relevant?Organization of Ideas: Is the content well organized and does it flow smoothly from one idea to the next? Are the main points ordered in order of importance or chronologically?∙Attention-grabbing introduction: Does the speaker begin with some kind of attention-grabbing question, anecdote, example, fact, or statistic?∙Tell-tell-tell structure: Does the speaker repeat the main idea of the speech three times? First, he should introduce his thesis in the introduction, thenreinforce it in the body of his speech, and finally re-phrase it in hisconclusion.∙Three main points: The speaker should give three main points that support his thesis. Each main point should be explained and then supported with facts,statistics, examples, quotations, or anecdotes.∙Transitions: Does the speaker use transitions to smoothly connect his ideas. Transitions can be organizational connectors (e.g. First of all,Secondly, My final point is…, In conclusion, et c.) or logical connectors (e.g.On the other hand, In contrast, In addition to, Consequently, Therefore, etc.)Here are five general tips for a successful speech:1. Practice, practice, practice! If you are giving a prepared speech, then you need to practice your speech frequently. First, practice by yourself or in front of a mirror. Then practice your speech in front of a parent or friend (and have them time your speech). Finally, give a dress rehearsal using all of your visual aids. Even if you are giving an impromptu speech, you can practice various topics on your own or in front of friends.2. Try to relax before giving the speech. I know that this is easier said thandone. Most speakers get very anxious before speaking, but remember that it‟s no big deal—it‟s only a speech and everyone gets nervous before giving a speech. One thing that you can do is to repeat the following relaxation technique three times: take a deep breath through your nose and then exhale it slowly through your mouth. Try it,you‟ll feel better!3. Don’t talk too fast when delivering your speech. If you slow your rate of speech down, you can accomplish several things:1) You can reduce the number of vocal pauses in your speech (e.g. “uh”, “um”, “okay”, “you know”)2) It gives you time to think ahead so that you know what to say next3) It makes your speech seem more relaxed and fluent** Don‟t slow down too much or it will sound awkward and unnatural4. If you make a mistake, don’t draw attention to it. Don‟t stop your s peech to correct your mistake, apologize for it, or draw attention to your mistake. Just try to continue on with your speech as if nothing happened. Chances are, no one noticed your mistake anyway.5. Look outwardly confident and enthusiastic. Even if you feel nervous and depressed on the inside, try to look confident and enthusiastic on theoutside. Remember that when you give a speech, you‟re kind of like an actor—so …act‟ confident.People will be able to enjoy your speech if they think that you are enjoying your speech. If they see that you are excessively nervous and uncomfortable, they will also feel nervous and uncomfortable.Example Impromptu topics:∙You are an ant. Convince an anteater to not eat you.∙Explain three different ways to eat an Oreo cookie.∙Tell us about a nickname you have and how you got it.∙Convince us to vote for you as president of the USA.∙Explain three uses for a pencil besides for writing.∙Read us a letter you might write home when you are staying at a circus training summer camp.∙Tell us about your summer plans.∙Convince us that homework is harmful to your health.∙Tell us about your favorite pet and why it should win the Greatest Pet Ever award.∙If you were an animal, what would you be?∙You are a salesperson trying to sell us the shirt you have on.∙Explain how a smart person might not be wise.∙If you were the teacher, how would our class be different?∙Tell us about the hardest thing you have ever done.∙You are a mad scientist.

Public Speaking-
My Favorite Two-Minute
Vocal Warm Up
Do you warm up your voice? If you don't, you should. Good speech takes muscle. And just as your leg muscles work better if you warm them up before a run, so will your speech muscles work better if you warm them up at the start of your day. Your voice will sound better, stronger. Your articulation will become more clear and crisp. You'll be easier to understand. And as you strengthen your speech muscles, you'll be able to talk longer without vocal fatigue.
While warming up the voice is important for those who speak a lot, it's also important for those who don't. Some people have solitary jobs where they hardly speak at all, such as computer programmers, artists or writers. If the vocal chords are under used, they may actually begin to weaken and atrophy.
So that your voice stays as healthy as possible, I include a short version of my favorite vocal warm up below. Here's how it works. The sentences in the warm up have been designed to work many of the vowel and consonant sounds in the English language. Saying them properly can actually strengthen your articulator muscles. Before you begin, drink a glass of warm water. Then, read each sentence aloud slowly, pronouncing each word as carefully and properly as you can. These are not tongue-twisters. DO NOT RACE. While doing the warm up, if your throat becomes sore or your voice feels strained, stop immediately. Work up gradually until you can comfortably do the entire exercise. And of course, if you have persistent hoarseness, weakness or any kind of throat or voice problem, please see your doctor.
