第一篇:即兴演讲要决
即兴演讲是指演讲者在事先没有准备或者没有充分准备的情况下进行的临时性演讲。即兴演讲除了需要多方面的知识素养外,还需要敏捷的思维能力,快速的语言表达能力以及应变能力。在英语演讲比赛中,即兴演讲部分是最具有挑战性的部分,也最能体现参赛者的真实英语水平。本文将通过分析历届“21世纪杯”全国大学生英语演讲比赛中优秀选手的即兴演讲,分析优秀演讲者需要掌握的语言表达及应变方法,提出在英语即兴演讲中需要注意的事项及应对方法,以期为选手提供建议和帮助。
1.方法
1.1结构
对于议论文形式的即兴演讲话题来说,不能够随性而为,一般要求演讲者思路清晰,在即兴演讲前必须构建好演讲的整个框架结构。优秀的选手通常采用总—分一总的结构,即提出论点——支持论点——总结论点。现以第十一届全国英语演讲比赛冠军曹丰的即兴演讲话题为例,他的题目是:Now in the age of the Internet,reading books does not seem as important as it once was.Do you think people call learn as much on the Internet as they can by reading books? Which method do you prefer? 他是这样开头的:“Actually, I don’t agree with the first sentence of this topic:‘In the age of the Internet,reading books is not as important as it was once was”’.接下来分析原因,最后做出总结:“So in this age of Internet,in this age of modernization,in this age of civilization,why do you have to force someone to choose between internet and books? I prefer using both of them.”
1.2开头
瑞士作家温克勒说:“开场白有二项任务:一是建立说者与听者的同感;二是如字义所释,打开场面,引入正题。”总的来说,开头应简短并能抓住听众的兴趣。开头一般有以下几种方法。
1.2.1开门见山,直切主题
这种开场的方式单刀直入,能够直奔演讲主题,通过简洁的语言,开门见山,直切主题能迅速吸引听众的注意。
1.2.2设问式
演讲者一开始就提出一个或几个令人出乎意料的问题,能够迅速地唤起听众的兴趣和注意力,引发人们的深思,自然地激发听众的参与意识,缩短与听众的距离。采用设问开头的方式,关键在于问题要提得好,提得恰当。提问的信息要与后面阐述的问题联系紧密,能巧妙而自然地引出演讲的主体内容。第三届全国英语演讲比赛冠军梁励敏在演讲“Are buses better than cars?”时这样开头:Is not owning a private car a dream that is deeply rooted in any Chinese for years time? Isn’t it true that in developed countries,ears have already become all indispensable part of everyone’s life? I think we are all familiar with the scene in the western movies when the whole family goes out on a car trip.When the parents sit at the front and the children at the back.And isn’t that indeed a very harmonious picture? 这一连串的发问能紧紧抓 住听众。
1.2.3引用式
在演讲的开始引用名人名言、诗句等,以提出问题或论证自己的观点。例如第十二届全国英语演讲比赛冠军的即兴演讲是这样开头的:“When I am dead,my dearest,Sing no sad songs for me.Plant thou no roses at my head,No shady cypress tree.Be the green grass above me with showers and dewdrops wet.And,if thou wilt,remember.And,if thou wilt,forget.’’她引用这首诗来说明“死亡并不恐怖,对于很多人来说死亡是美好的”。
1.2.4讲述故事法
以一个故事,一则新闻或自己的一次经历引出演讲的主题,容易吸引听众的注意力,激发听众的兴趣。用故事开头,需要做到叙事简明扼要,所用事例要有针对性,所叙事情要与中心论题密切相关。最后还要回到主题上来,对所述故事进行升华j如第十二届全国英语演讲比赛季军杨赫在即兴演讲“What is self-esteem? How should you improve yourself-esteem?”中这样说到:“In traditional Chinese classics,there was a man,who was starved to death who still refused to take the food that was offered to him,using some rude words.In modern westem literature,there is a woman,named Jane Eyre,who refused to marry Edward Rochester,when he looked down upon her.What do they have in common? Why do we respect them so much? That is because of their strong self-esteem.’’
1.3结尾
俗话说“编筐编篓,重在收口;描龙画风,难在点睛”。演讲的结尾,就是演讲的“收口”、“点睛”。好的结尾除了能揭示题旨、加深认识,给听众留下完整深刻的印象外还能使整个演讲通篇浑然一体;另外好的结尾能够鼓动激情、促人深思、令人觉醒,能让听众在反复回味中受到教育和启发。结尾的主要方法有以下几种方式。
1.3.1总结
总结法就是以简洁的语言扼要地概括前面所讲述的内容,以便给听众留下一个完整、清晰而深刻的印象。这种结尾能够概括和点化主旨,起到提醒、强调的作用。大多数选手在即兴演讲时都是以这种方式结尾的。第十二届全国英语演讲比赛第四名黎志敏演讲时这样结尾“In conclusion.1 want to say that we only have one earth and we should spare no effort to make our earth a better place and to steer our earth for the better.”
1.3.2发出号召,促人行动
这种方式以强烈的情感,听众提出希望,以达到鼓舞斗志,促其行动的目的。第十二届全国英语演讲比赛第九名邓凯琪在演讲“The main benefits and problems of globalization”时这样结尾“Ladies and gentlemen,don’t let globalization affect how you see our culture.But then use this opportunity,use this chance to treasure our culture even more,because it is facing the challenges of globalization.”这种结尾的方式是演讲者用深刻的认识和独到的见解向听众提 希望、发号召,能使听众,精神为之一振,具有动人情、促人行的作用。
1.3.3巧引名言,让人回味
通过引用名言、警句、谚语、格言、诗句等作为结尾,不仅使语言表达得精炼、生动、富有节奏和韵律,而且还可以使演讲的内容丰富充实,具有启发性并增加感召力。第十三届全国英语演讲比赛第六名孙怡在演讲“Share with us your understanding of‘Either you’re somebody or you ain’t nobody”’时这样结尾“1 want to end my speech with one of Michael Jordan’s famous words.It’s not how hard you push yourself for your way;it's something in you.You think you have to finish it.”用名言式结尾,能给演讲者的思想提供有力的证明增加演讲的可信度,显得更加优美、含蓄,睿智大气,具有较强的说服力和鼓舞作用。
1.3.4以问作结,启发思考
以问句结尾有两种表现形式,一是提出问题引人深思,二是以反问的方式作总结。第九届全国英语演讲比赛冠军洪哗在演讲“Should there be limits on how we display our love in public? What do you think is the best way to express your feelings in public?”时这样结尾:“And the best scene in my mind to show our love in public,is that we lay on the grass land in my campus,and I read a part of Jane Eyre to him,and he read a part of Oliver Twist to me.Don’t you think it is a romantic scene for the young lovers to show their love to each other?”
1_3.5临场应变
第七届全国英语演讲比赛“最具潜力选手奖”获得者张勇被问及“Should college students be allowed to get married?”时,这样答道:“Thank you for your question and I think it’s really a good question to show how fast the society is developing.I still remember that last year the contestant number twenty-four,also today’s host,were asked about a question that what qualities you look for in a boyfriend.And only a year later here I’ll be asked:Should college students be allowed to get married? I think the society is really developing.”他的随机应变带来的幽默博得了阵阵掌声与笑声。
另一位选手在回答“传统好还是现代科技好”时,他表示传统更好。正巧这时话筒架出问题了,男主持人只得为那名选手举着话筒让他发言。选手见状立即补充一句:“这充分说明传统更加可靠”。他的机敏回答也得到了评委和观众的认可。
2.准备
中国有句古语:“熟读唐诗三百首,不会吟诗也会吟。”这充分说明了先有输入,才可能输出。即兴演讲虽然是即兴而发,却与平时的积累息息相关。
2.1词汇和句子量的积累
演讲者必须积累一定的词汇量,这样就不会在拿到即兴演讲题目之后因为不认识其中某个单词而导致全军覆没,或者在反复表达同一个内容上由于词汇贫乏而使用同一个单词,使 3 人产生厌倦的感觉。例如形容一个人生气、愤怒,避免重复使用angry,可以用be pissed off,be burned up等词来替换。又如在表达“喜欢”的时候,可以用be keen on,be into,be mad about,be passionate about,be fond of, be partial to等来替换like和love.其次,还要积累各个方面的相关词汇。例如:当谈到环境问题,可能会用到土流失、沙漠化、排放物、可持续发展等等,这就需要掌握它们的英语表达(water loss and soil erosion,desertification,emission,sustainable development)。谈到如何解决交通问题时,高架桥、地铁、轻轨、行人、交通规则、遵守、高峰时间等这些词汇也是必不可少的(viaduct,metro,light rail,pedestrian,traffic regulation,abide by,rush hour)。再次,背诵一些实用的句型。在“表达越来越多的人意识到..时”,可以采用“There is a growing awareness that.”这比起我们常用的“More and more people realize that.”要好的多。此外,谚语和格言的积累也是十分必要的。学生如果能够每天记忆三两句谚语,长期坚持,烂熟于胸,定能由量变上升到质变,在特定的语言环境中会脱口而出,收到贴切、生动、幽默、风趣等意想不到的语言效果。
2.2材料的积累
演讲者需要在平时就能深入观察生活、积极参与生活,及时记录生活中的见闻。积极了解日常生活知识、风土人情、地理环境能使选手在短暂的准备时间内从脑海中找到生动的例证和恰当的词汇,使即兴演讲增添魅力。
2.3思想方面的积累
通常当演讲题目是演讲者感兴趣或者熟悉的话题时,演讲者一般不会感到困难,大都能较好地扣题展开,而且讲得有声有色。可是如果演讲者从未涉及过此类话题,突然让他们发表2分钟演讲,他们往往觉得无话可说。因此,在平时的训练中,演讲者的演讲话题必须涉及到各个领域。道格拉斯·费班克曾在《美国杂志》上发表一篇文章,叙述一种益智游戏,他和查理·卓别林,玛丽·皮克福几乎每晚都玩,共玩了两年。这种游戏就是演说术里最困难的一种练习方式,站着思考,每人各在一张小纸条上写下一个题目,并立刻站起来就那个题目说上六十秒钟,同一题目不能重复。从他们开始玩这个游戏以来,三人都机敏了许多。对于各式各样的题目他们也有更多的了解。比这更为有用的是,他们都学会了在瞬间里能就任何题目即时凝聚自己的知识和思想。演讲者很有必要使用这种方法经常练习,这不仅能够扩展自己的思维,而且能养成平时深入思考的习惯,对于演讲者大有裨益。
3.结语
掌握了上述演讲方法和技巧,演讲者便可以更好的确立即兴演讲结构和内容,才能在演讲中有更好的发挥。另外打好的坚实的语言基础才是演讲的关键,两者兼备才能够在实战中取得优异的成绩来源.英语即兴演讲技巧|英语即兴演讲题目|精彩演讲摘录|分析
Host: Last February, Chun Shu, a Chinese writer in her early twenties, appeared on the cover of Time magazine.She was referred to by the U.S.Editor as “...one of a group of post-eighties writers in China.” Which also includes Guo Jingming, Zhang Yueran and Han Ham All these writers recount their personal feelings and express their individuality in their works, and they have a large group of readers and supporters.However, there is some concern that the cynical attitude towards life that they express might have a negative effect on young readers.Do you also fear it will have such negative effects? Thanks.Thank you for your question.Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.My topic of today's speech is “Make our Voice Heard.” Today I would like to argue in two park.First, I would like to argue why people are afraid that literatures will set a negative effect on our lives.And second part I will share some of my thoughts with you.开宗明义。演讲人首先明确的告知听众演讲的主题,使用brief introduction sentence to get attention。在临场的匆忙之中仍然想出来一个很好的题目Make Our Voice Heard,并且将自己的论述分为两部分,有条不紊,令人感叹。
Why those people are afraid of these kind of literature? I'm afraid that they are afraid of that teenagers are liked to imitate others.And teenager is just a crucial point for us to shape our personality, our view of life, and our value of the world.They're afraid of that we follow the bad example and lead a bad life in the future.And that's why my parents, my family, and even the government would like to propose where thought those kind of literature as cynical ones.本段讨论人们对此类文学作品表示忧虑的原因:担心青少年模仿。思路很清晰。也正是在正文中cover the main points。但大概由于临场的因素,出现了一些浯法方面的错误,如:I'm afraid of that„,they are afraid of that„,虽然不影响理解,仍然是个遗憾。
演讲人将《麦田守望者》与郭敬明的作品相比较,为下文打下铺垫。用文学名著作为论证的材料,很有说服力。
But I would like to share some of my thoughts with you.Before I read the book of Mr.Guo Jingming's novel, I read another fiction called the Catcher the Rye.In that book, I also read sex, violence, murder, and rebellion.But that book was regarded as one of the masterpiece in American history and awarded the Pulitzer Prize.I could not see any difference between Mr.Guo Jingming's novel and The Cateber in the Rye, because they expressed the attitude as our teenagers and adolescents we feel about the world.Now let me give you my three reasons, why we can read this kind of a book and f am not afraid of tile fears of the side effect.First, those literatures are not all bad.They have some positive points.They advocate friendship, love, loyalty, and so on.One of my roommates even cried after reading those books, He said that it is the first.., it was the first time in his life that he felt that a friendship was that precious, because the stories depicted in his novel, reflect him of the old times he spent in his high school.And he bought four books of Mr.Guo Jingming's Never Flowers in Never Dream(Meng Li Hua Luo Zhi Duo Shao)and sent them to his friends.And his friends wrote a long letter to him.I think this is what we lack today, the communication between friends.But the literature seems to bridge the gap.本段从三个方面指出此类作品不会产生负面影响的原因。首先指出第一个作品本身亦有其可 5 取之处。并以其宦友的亲身经历为例作出了令人信服的论证。这样就使演讲personalized,so that audience can relate more easily to personal topics—they probably have similar experiences.
And the second reason is that we are not living in a world where everything is depicted as good.We are living in a world of good and evil, evil and holy.So, to that extent, if I am confined in a world where everything is depicted as good, I will feel quite perplexed when I am facing the real world.Does the real world really resemble what I read in the novel? We need something positive, also we need something cynical.And the third reason is that our generation, I believe, have the sense of self-discipline.We can make our own decision.For our parents, for our families and for the government, they should resume, assume the responsibility to remind us that what is good, what is bad, what is cynical Make our voice be heard.This is my answer and I am not afraid of tile side effects of those literature.Thank you very much.本段谈论演讲人的第二个观点:世界亦非完美无暇,文学就应该反应真实的世界。
最后一点原因:当代年轻人可以自律。至此就分别从文学作品、社会、个人三个方面透彻地阐释了演讲人的观点。也正是通过从不同角度的分析,使听众接受演讲人的观点。这一段中也出现了较为明显的问题。
Host: And, the topic for your speech will be...In spite of the fact that there is cutthroat competition within the film industry in China, there continues to be a steep increase in the number of applicants for places at Chinese art institutes.According to a Beijing-based newspaper, more than ten thousand applicants waited in line on a single day to register to apply for the Beijing Film Academy.How do you perceive this struggle for stardom? Thank you for the difficult question.Well, to be honest with you, I'm not really familiar with the struggle for stardom thing in China.But in the city where I come from, there is this also as cutthroat as the one in Beijing here competition going on, and perhaps I can share with you the experience we have there.Let me tell you something.In the city where I come from, there is this famous singing competition going on every week.And what they do is that pick the best one, and the best one goes to the next week and it goes on and on until one day that person is eliminated.开场白中difficult的使用充分显示了演讲人的机智。因为这与普通的接题方式Thank you for the question不同。演讲者是香港人,虽然她对主持人所问的内地的情况不甚了解,是一大劣势,但她却巧妙的地使用but转而谈到香港的情况;also的使用使演讲的主题不变。同时听众理解到演讲者要从另外一个角度解释同一个问题。这种角度的变换使演讲者的劣势变成了优势。听众既为其率真而打动,又为其智慧而折服。
And there's this little five year old boy, and he has won five consecutive championships, and then, of course, there were interviews and the news coverage, and everything.And when the general public read the newspaper.They frown at it.They said, “What a silly idea, to think about becoming a star.” And when Andy Lau--I'm sure all of you blow him, tile famous singer and actor--when he read the newspaper, he said, “Wow, that's great!But ask the boy to work hard.It's not easy.”
这里演讲人以演唱比赛为切人点,以小男孩的参舞,点出了香港人对当明星十分热衷。以此呼应主持人提问。并且演讲人Support points with specifics.以典型的例子支持论点。明星刘德华在内 地有很高的知名度,他的勤奋也是众所周知,以他的话为例,让人十分信服。本段对general public和Andy Lau不同态度的对 比,可以引起听众的思考。对比之中必有抑扬,也让听众对下段演讲人过渡到自己的观点有了思
想上的准备
Ladies and gentlemen, I think if we use the word “struggle”, isn't it a bit too negative? I think better word for it is “strive.” Being a star is also a profession.It is also a job that you need to work hard at.Success does not come easy.Well, if we take a look at famous actors and actresses such as lackie Chart, Chow Yun Fat, Andy Lau, Tony Lun, they are all in their mid-forties, and even fifties.Yet, what do they have in common? When they first became..., when they first started their careers as a star, or as an actor, they were described as “Cinema Poison,” meaning nobody would see their films.But did they give up? No, they didn't, they didn't give up.They have been working hard all the way.And now they are famous.All over the world.All over Asia.And are they proud of themselves? Well, I suppose so.But still they work very hard.Look at Andy Lau.He's still striving for the best all the time.Every year are awards.本段中演讲人明确地提出了自己的观点。并且在临场仍然明确地区分struggle和strive,显示出演讲人深厚的语言功底。演讲人接着由例子过渡到谈话主题:当明星是一种职业,巧妙地把struggle的主题过渡到strive,进而谈到Being a star is also a profession.把不熟悉的主题struggle过渡到谈明星的成功这个比较熟悉的话题。这种演讲技巧十分重要,因为在短暂的几十秒钟内谈论一个十分陌生的话题,实在有难度,但是这位演讲者的巧妙过渡,既没有跑题,又谈了熟悉的话题,因此这种技巧值得学习。同时,本段列举众多内地观众十分熟悉地明星成名经历作为brief examples,做论据,支持自己的观点,使论据可靠而有力。这两句话Al lover the world.All over Asia.若能调换顺序,就更加顺畅。
Ladies and gentlemen, I think there's nothing wrong if you want to be a star.It's a profession.It's a job that everybody can work for it if you really want it.But there are qualities that you need to possess if you want to be a star.Of Course you have to be hard-working, like Andy Lau, like Chow Yun Fat.They're all very hard-working.And there is also something very, important.It is you have to have a genuine interest in this film industry.This genuine interest is very important.Because a lot of people are interested in the money, instead of the job.They just look at the statistics, like just now I was waiting in my room and I was reading this news article, there's a chart telling the people how many...well, how much those stars in China are making, l/Veil, if you are only attracted by those statistics, by the figures, the money, well, then, I do not think you can be a star.There are people who have a genuine interest in becoming a singer, like there are people who have been taking acting classes, who have been acting in secondary schools, in college like that.They have a genuine interest.Yet, then go for it.本段讨论了成为明星的第三个素质:感兴趣[genuine Interest],并且列举了生活中的一些实例[people only interested in money rather than film industry)来论证自己的观点。这样在 7 立论的同时也驳斥了为金钱而当明星的错误观点。有立有废,论证严谨
Ladies and gentlemen, well, I think the competition is also good.When there's a competition, we can ensure the quality.When there's no competition, well, we have to have whatever is given to us.When there's competition, we can pick what we want.Isn't that something good?
Ladies and gentlemen, it is what I think for that struggle for stardom.Thank you very much.结论部分是one—sentence review of the points she presented in her talk.由“为当明星而打拼”引申到一般意义上的竞争,既紧扣主题,又加以升华。以一个反问句Isn't it something good?结尾,进一步强化了演讲人的观点。这样的结尾达到了short and to the point的效果。通过Ladies and gentlemen提示听众演讲接近尾声,重提主持人的问题,以告知听众她一直围绕这个主题展开演讲,给听众一个完整的结尾。
本篇是获得第10届“21世纪·外教社杯”全国英语演讲比赛季军的香港选手张阿旭的即兴演讲。演讲充分显示了演讲人的机敏、临场应变能力和扎实的语言功底。通篇逻辑十分的清晰,而且演讲人娓娓道来,丝毫没有演讲的做作,却又极富感染力。在即兴演讲这一部分,本篇演讲人明显高人一筹。据演讲者本人介绍,这与她所在的学校要求学生做很多即兴的presentation
即兴演讲(impromptu speech),顾名思义,就是指临场的、毫无准备的演讲。在前面所提到的两大比赛中,即兴演讲所占时间为1~3分钟,分值所占比重为30%~40%,在比赛中的地位十分重要。如果参赛选手想要取得优秀的成绩,那么就一定要在该部分取得高分。
即兴演讲对于使用母语演讲的人来说都非常困难,更何况是使用非母语演讲的选手?这部分非常具有挑战性,主要考察选手多方面能力:思维能力、逻辑能力和语言能力。思维能力是指选手在毫无准备的情况下对某一问题的分析能力,对问题理解的深度和宽度等;逻辑能力主要指选手是否有全局观,是否能合理搭筑整个演讲的框架,所阐述观点的层次性是否清晰;而语言能力则是指选手即席用英语进行交流沟通的能力,可检验选手的英语语言熟练度和准确度如何。那么如何应对即兴演讲呢?
在定题演讲部分,我们讨论了衡量一篇演讲好坏的普遍原则。这些原则对所有类型的演讲都适用,即兴演讲也不例外。在做即兴演讲时,也要从以下四个方面着手:内容、结构、语言以及台上演讲风格等。
内容
在讨论即兴演讲的内容之前,先了解几个在近几年大赛即兴演讲中出现的题目。
Is marking western holidays a sign of a modern China or of traditions sacrificed to commercial interests
Do you think university education should be more open-minded?
Are we becoming too susceptible to advertising?
Which qualities do you look for in a boyfriend?
If you were one representative of Peoples Congress, what advice would you give the government?
题目还有很多,这里就不一一列举了。通过这几个题目,大致可以看出即兴演讲的题目涉及方方面面,从经济、政治、教育、文化、人生到国际问题,包罗万象。这也是即兴演讲具有极强挑战性的原因之一。题目的范围之大之广对参赛选手提出了很高的要求。要求演讲者平时养成读书看报的习惯,关注周围发生的焦点问题和国际时事,积累各个领域的素材,以便谈论起某一个话题时言之有物,有的放矢;要求演讲者平时养成思考的习惯,多听不同的声音,从不同角度看问题,看问题有想法、有深度。这些都是赛前的准备工作,应多积累、丰富自己的知识内容,强化自己的观点。
那么在比赛当中,又该怎样具体应对呢?
正如前面所讲的,好的内容包括好的主题以及有说服力的材料做支持。在即兴演讲中,更要注意这两点。
1.强有力的材料做支持
正如前面讨论过的那样,论据的类型最基本可分为三种:实例、统计数字以及引用别人的言语。对于即兴演讲来说,现场能够找到恰当的统计数字是非常困难的。因此在即兴演讲时,引用别人的言语和用实例来证明是最常见的两种方式。那么应该选择哪种类型的例子来做论据呢?在比赛现场上进行即兴演讲时,最切实可行的、最容易做到的就是用自己或自己周围发生的例子来说明你的观点,信手拈来,不用绞尽脑汁,演讲起来最自如,最自信;这样做无形之中也强化了自己的可信度,比较容易打动听众。如在“21世纪(爱立信杯”2003年第8届全国英语演讲比赛中获得第二名的南京大学学生王媛在即兴演讲中是这样说的,“If indeed I had a chance to choose for my life again, I think the time setting I would choose is in the late 1970s and the early 1980s.That was when the Chinese government began to adopt the policy of reform and openness.And the place setting I would choose is in some places in the western part of China.Why? Let me share with you my reasons.Well, when I firstly saw this, errr, heard this topic, I think it reminded me of an experience a few years ago.I still clearly remember that, uhh, at that time, some fellow students and I went to visit a primary school in a very poor village and we were working as tutors there.There, all the classrooms were in a very old building and many windows and doors were broken, so, when it was raining, all the children had to move to a corner in order not to get wet.Inside the classroom, five to six children were sharing one desk normally shared by two and many of the desks and chairs were broken, too.And immediately after we began to teach them English, it became very clear to us that many of these students were very diligent and were very willing to work hard.But later on, as we talked among ourselves, we got to know that they, many of them, could not finish their schooling just because of poverty.I think that this experience enabled us to see that we belong to a few group of, a group of few people that are fortunately enough to receive a college education.”
这段演讲是她真情实感的流露,表达起来自如,而且自信,也容易和听众进行真正的交流。
在选择使用论据时,尤其是在竞赛当中,需要特别注意以下两个原则。
(1)演讲的支持材料要切题。
所选择的支持材料要为你的中心观点或主题服务,不能偏离这一点,不能跑题。记得一个学生在参加比赛时,抽到的即兴演讲题目是,“中国成为世界贸易组织的成员对于我们国 9 家有什么主要影响?”她在演讲中讲了一个很长的故事,一个年轻人在海边拾贝壳,碰到了一个老人,以及和这个老人之间展开的对话。这个故事占了整个演讲的三分之二,然后很牵强地把这个故事和她抽到的题目联系在一起。尽管她的故事叙述得很流利,但在整个即兴演讲结束后,听众仍然不知她对这个问题的回答是什么?很显然,演讲者在赛前准备了几个故事,准备在即兴演讲时使用。的确,在赛前要做充分的准备,准备各个领域的数据、例子、权威专家的话等,做好充分的调研,以便在比赛中游刃有余。但切记你所选择的支持材料一定要与主题相关,为主题服务,能够帮助听众更加深入地了解你的观点,决不能哗众取宠。不切题的即兴演讲绝不会得高分。
(2)演讲的支持材料要贴近听众。
演讲的支持材料最好是听众熟悉的,贴近听众,不仅有利于听众理解、接受和吸收你的信息,而且容易产生共鸣。笔者作为辅导教师参加过多次的全国英语演讲比赛,在比赛中发现了一个很奇怪的现象。有很多学生举例子或引用别人的话时,往往愿意用国外的例子或国外名人说的话来支持他们的论点。学生也许有些许担心,“如果用土生土长的例子,外国评委可能会不知道,不了解背景,会影响他们对整个演讲的评判。”然而在一次比赛中,一位来自美国的演讲专家在做点评时说到,“不用担心我们会不了解,或听不懂。问题是作为一个外国人,我们在这里希望听到有关你们国家的人、事、思想、文化,而不是我们国家的名人如林肯、克林顿,他们说了什么,干了什么。”他一语道破了问题的关键,演讲者所说的要和你的听众拉近距离,讲一些本地发生的事情,发生的事情对听众产生了什么样的影响,用当地的文化、理念来解释你的观点,这样更容易在听众中产生共鸣。但并不是说就一定不能用国外的例子或观点。要全方位地选择论据,选择恰当的材料为你的观点服务。
在“21世纪(澳门之星杯”2006年第11届全国英语演讲比赛中复旦大学的胡懿在即兴演讲(Should laws be fixed or flexible?)中是这样说的,“Well, actually, very accidentally this morning, when we were sort of ”imprisoned“ in that preparing room, actually we had a fierce debate over law.And now I would like to share some of my thoughts with you on whether we should adopt flexible laws or fixed laws.Well, first of all, I admit that there are some cases of injustice in our society.For example, last year there was a famous case of Wang Bingyu, which aroused a great controversy in society.Actually Wang Bingyu was a migrant worker, who failed for several times to get his payment from his boss.And obviously that boss treated him very badly.He didn’t send him to hospital when he was ill, and he didn’t treat him with very good food and also made him make, do extra work without any extra money.And out of a rage, Wang killed several of the, several people in charge, out of a great rage.And that case aroused a great controversy in society.Actually when I read the story, I did show some sympathy for that guy, because I think it was the fault of the boss in the first place.It was him that didn’t pay him the payment that he deserved.So I feel sympathetic for him.”
她讲述了一个在我国曾经轰动一时的案例,台下的听众可能听说过,也可能不知道这个故事,但这毕竟是发生在听众周围的,贴近听众,这样听众便会很容易理解演讲者所要传达的信息。
在一分钟的即兴演讲中,你用具体的事例来仔细阐述观点的时间可能非常受限。在这一分钟之内,你很可能只给出主要观点的框架,那么要想真正打动听众恐怕要依赖于主题和观点到底如何。
2.好的主题与观点
在前面谈过选择题目或角度时应遵循的一些具体原则,如:题目和角度一定是你有切身 感触的;应该具有创造性,是听众感兴趣的;应该具体;应真实而有意义;所选择的观点或角度一定能经得起推敲和琢磨,是全面的。除了这些基本原则外,在比赛过程中处理即兴演讲时,还应该特别强调两点:切题和严谨。
(1)切题
切题最重要。一般而言,选手拿到的题目都是以问题的形式出现的。你需要表明在这个问题上的立场和观点,决不可以含糊其词,态度闪烁不定,站在中间,既谈好处又谈弊端。如果坚持这样,那么评委和听众就会认为你是在逃避,你的观点不明确,态度不明朗,那也就很难胜出。这点在CCTV杯演讲比赛中尤其重要,因为即兴演讲是为以后的辩论做准备。例如在2005年CCTV杯演讲比赛中,一位学生抽到的题目是, “Who should be the focus of investment in sports, the general population or potential Olympic champions?”当时他的回答是不偏不倚的,很显然二者都应该被照顾到,给予资金的扶持。但问题是,在这种情况下,他必须要做出选择,而不能徘徊于两者之间。否则,评委和听众就会怀疑你的态度和出发点,演讲效果自然也就大打折扣。
(2)观点的严谨性
观点不能偏激,一定要严谨。这里的严谨有以下几层意思。
观点本身能够站得住脚,有充足的材料可以说明论证。
表达观点的语言本身要严谨,准确,尽量避免绝对化的字眼,如 “never, every, all, nothing, nobody“等,这些绝对化判断太容易遭到攻击。
观点需要限制和修饰。要用发展性的眼光来处理你的观点。以上面那个题目来为例,如果既有大量资金扶持运动员又能让普通群众受益,那是最好的,但这是一种理想的画面。现实往往和理想有一段距离,现阶段没有足够的资金平衡二者的利益,答案又是什么呢?你可以有自己的看法和答案,但一定要有充足的论据支持。请注意:刚才我使用了现阶段三个字。这就意味着是用发展的眼光来看到问题,不仅要看到事物的现阶段,也要看到将来发展的方向——也就是期望得到的理想状态,即两类人群都会受益。
承认你的观点有修正和完善的余地。你的观点可能只是你目前认识的一个方面,或者是现阶段你的一种想法,它仍然有完善的余地

三 在短时间的英语演讲中说些什么才能给别人留下深刻印象呢?
话题方面可以选一些大家感兴趣的,或是最近网上火的一些事情。比如说,可以谈谈你对犀利哥的看法、对凤姐征婚的看法、对肯德基用地沟油的看法,等等。
其实要引起别人注意,你可以在演讲中加入些新词新句,也可以在其中加些搞笑或讽刺但能唤起人们思考的一些看法或提出问题等都可以。
总之,演讲中要做到引起注意,就要:话题、语言、表情具有吸引力,不乏幽默感
情绪好。别紧张、当下边全是白菜就好了。嘻嘻。一定要有感染力,有感情。语速别太快哦!

Life is in your hands, you go beyond excellent开头结尾Life is difficult ,but it'also easy.It's important for us to understand.If you think life is difficult ,you should laugh , laugh is the best way。Your life is youeself, so life is your hands.Life is colorful.We should understand life and study life.My Definition of Success
成功之我见
Once upon a time,there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose.To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible.One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince...“ Well, you know the rest.The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line ”And they live happily every after.“
Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition? Because, I think, it is a typical success story.It is highly philosophical and symbolic.By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1)a goal to be set,as represented by the beautiful princess;2)challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks;3)the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through;and 4)the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result.The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa.If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence.The term ”success“, to be sure,will not sit still for easy definition.But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor.To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings.If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared.In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value.The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative.Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person.In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success.That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffers from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this.I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.But I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties.Now here I am.If I come out first, it will be a great success for me.If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties.For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success.You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties.The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.Thank you.爱祖国先确定整个演讲结构在说句型和角度。三分钟其实说不了很多。总分总结构就好了,一到两句总起句提出论点,然后进一步解释论点,然后对这个论点举例子,最后再总结一下基本就OK了,三分钟差不多!句型就要看你的英语水平了,你是什么水平就能写出什么句型,也就是说你会什么句型就写什么就好了,通常口语也没有特别复杂的句子出现。
Thank you for your question.Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.My topic of today's speech is ”Make our Voice Heard.“ Today I would like to argue in two park.First, I would like to argue why people are afraid that literatures will set a negative effect on our lives.And second part I will share some of my thoughts with you.开宗明义。演讲人首先明确的告知听众演讲的主题,使用brief introduction sentence to get attention。在临场的匆忙之中仍然想出来一个很好的题目Make Our Voice Heard,并且将自己的论述分为两部分,有条不紊,令人感叹。
Ladies and gentlemen, it is what I think for that struggle for stardom.Thank you very much.通过Ladies and gentlemen提示听众演讲接近尾声,重提主持人的问题,以告知听众她一直围绕这个主题展开演讲,给听众一个完整的结尾。
Race with time
I’m sure everyone has heard of the famous chinese saying-one second is worth in gold, but gold can not by time.We are taught to treasure time at a very young age, but do we know how improtant time is really?我相信大家都曾听过一个出名的谚语——一寸光阴一寸金,寸金难买寸光阴。我们从小就被教导要珍惜时间,可是我们真的理解时间的重要性吗?Lets begin with something simple: your life is made up of seconds and hours.wasting time is a form of suiciding, expect its slowier and harder to realise.Lets think about it this way, you spent two hours playing on computer, the only result you got is that the character in the game has gotten stronger.but that is fantacy, not realistic.the two hour you spent on games is two hours in your life that youll NEVER get back.先从浅白的开始吧。生命是由时间组成的。浪费时间就是变向自杀,可是这很容易被人忽略。这样想吧,你花了两个小时玩游戏,最后的成果就是你的人物变得更强了。可是这是虚拟的,不是真实的。你在游戏上花的两个小时永远已经被你用了,是永远不可能在回来的。So what should we do about it? dont think that ”im young, i have plenty of time in my life“ or ”what the heck is he/she talking about", this is closely related to you.We should start organise our time, and make use of every second, so that we have no time to waste.那我们应该怎么办?不要想“我很年轻,最不缺的就是时间”或者“这个人到底在说什么废话啊”,这和你可是有很大的关系。我们应该好好管理自己的时间,利用每一分钟,这样我们才不会浪费自己的生命。Keep that in mind--the time you are wasting are the time you will NEVER get back.thank you.记住这个——你用掉的时间就是用掉了,永远都不会回来。谢谢。

六注意事项
1.英语演讲稿的基本组成部分
从大的方面看,英语演讲词实际上是属于一种特殊的说明文或议论文,其基本组成部分是:
1)开始时对听众的称呼语
最常用的是 Ladies and gentlemen,也可根据不同情况,选用 Fellow students, Distinguished guests, Mr.Chairman, Honorable Judges(评委)等等。
2)提出论题
由于演讲的时间限制,必须开门见山,提出论题。提出论题的方法有各种各样,但最生动,最能引起注意的是用举例法。比如:你要写校园生活你可以从描述美丽的校园生活开始;你要呼吁大家关心贫穷地区的孩子,你可以用亲眼看到的或者收集到的那些贫穷孩子多么需要帮助的实例开始。另外,用具体的统计数据也是一个有效的引出论题的方法,比如:你要谈遵守交通规则的话题,你可以从举一系列有关车辆、车祸等的数据开始。
3)论证
对提出的论题,不可主观地妄下结论,而要进行客观的论证。这是演讲中最需要下功夫的部分。关键是要把道理讲清楚。常见的论证方法有举例法、因果法、对比法等等,可参见英语议论文的有关章节。
4)结论
结论要简明扼要,以给听众留下深刻印象。
5)结尾
结尾要简洁,不要拉拉扯扯,说个没完。特别是不要受汉语影响,说些类似“准备不足,请谅解”,“请批评指正”这样的废话。最普通的结尾就是:Thank you very much for your attention。
2.英语演讲稿的语言特征
1)多用实词,多用短句,少用结构复杂的长句
在英语演讲中,and, but, so, then 等虚词要尽量少用,that, which等词引导的定语从句也只会使句子结构变得复杂,而使听众难以跟上演讲者的思路,从而影响演讲的效果。相反,多使用实词,短句,可使得演讲内容更清晰,气势更磅礴。
2)演讲要注意使用各种修辞手法,增加演讲的感染力和气势。英语演讲中常用的修辞手法有:渐进、对照、排比、警句等等,例如:
That government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.(排比)
这个民有、民治、民享的国家将不会从地球上消失。
United, there is little we can not do;divided, there is little we can do.(对照)
团结,我们便将无所不能;分裂,我们则会一事无成。
What we should fear most is the fear itself.(警句)
我们最应恐惧的是恐惧本身。
Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.(对照)
不要问你们的国家能为你们做些什么,而要问你们能为你们的国家做些什么。
第四篇:即兴演讲
即兴演讲
蔡一铭
这是一个人人需要演讲的时代,演讲不再限于正式场合,随时随地、简短便捷,只要有即兴交流的需要,就可以称之为即兴演讲。
精彩的即兴表达,不但能够为你塑造良好的个人形象,还能让你展示自己的专业能力。
有些人发言语无伦次,舌头像打了结。有些人一开讲便滔滔不绝,却毫无重点。有些人说话索然无味,没法让你投以关注。
有人说,即兴表达能力强的人,都是天赋异禀的佼佼者,其实是他们经过大量的练习,掌握了成熟的演讲技巧与思路。那么:
如何在所有即兴情境中,游刃有余地表达?如何掌控此时此刻,用说话影响他人?如何即刻表达内心想法,抓住听众需求?如何一开口便充满自信、逻辑清楚?
即兴演讲的作用越来越大,但是,我们大多数人都从未专门学习过即兴沟通。一铭招商《总裁招商落地系统》课堂上,一铭老师为我们展示一套系统的即兴演讲方法,与大家分享如何在任何场所中实现瞬间有效表达。
即兴演讲让你说出影响力
“即兴”并不是临场发挥,不是不经思考地脱口而出。它和准备正式讲话一样,需要技巧也需要练习。学会即兴演讲,将带来引人注目的力量。
█
非正式对话可能发生在电梯间、停车场、餐厅等任何地方。而你可能在这些场景中遇到老板、员工、同事或者客户,相遇的时刻,你都可以用来影响和激励他人。
█
即兴交流搭建了理解的桥梁。它将企业不同层次、不同领域的人汇集起来,促进大家分享信息和想法。
█
即兴会议是当今组织的运行常态。即兴交流促使我们及时解决问题和及时反馈。即兴领导力可以加快决策,领导者通过给予员工一些前瞻性的指导和辅导,更能及时推动项目的发展,带来更好的决策。
█
当说话者抛弃稿子讲话时,表达会更真实自然,让人觉得真实可信。同时,也拉近了说话者与听众的距离。
█
即兴交流时,如果一个人能快速提出见解、倾听、回应,再接着做其它事。这种敏捷的反应力,使人充满魅力。
即兴演讲四部曲
让你像领导者一样精准表达
课堂上,一铭老师通过“框架思维”的运用,教大家做好3分钟即兴演讲。如何在3分钟清晰讲好一件事情?老师与我们分享即兴演讲的四步骤:
“立马举例分享感受-号召呼吁”
演讲者不仅要通过声音表达自己的思想、观点、价值观;也要通过演讲,传达自己的结果和目的,用语言链接他人、触动他人、影响他人,从而改变听众的行为、改变听众的思维。
演讲也是要有输出的方法,比如通过一个道理、一个故事、一些数据,这样更能够打动人、给人留下深刻印象。在课堂上,学员上台演练环节,老师针对每个学员的一对一指导,帮助每个学员有框架地、有体系的即兴表达,更好地输出思想、观点。
通过老师的指导,随机选题上台演讲后,学员课后反馈各自收获:
“通过一铭老师的指导,我对演讲内容,被梳理得更加清晰、更加画面感。”
“以前日常上台我感觉我的语言系统都坏了,说话没思路没逻辑,但是,通过一铭老师的帮助,感觉这一期课程没白来!”
“上台之前我真的是语言的逻辑没有打通,没有思维,特别紧张,一铭老师的引导加入了一个主题,联系到自己的经历和故事,演讲很自如,台下听众也听得很认真,效果真的不一样了!”
马云曾说:“有思想而不会表达的人,等于没有思想。”即兴演讲可以帮助每个演讲者最短时间内在听众中传达思想,可以毫不夸张地说:即兴演讲是每个领导者的必备的技能。
即兴演讲放大影响力
《总裁招商落地系统》课堂一开始老师就通过“即兴演讲”的方式,教我们梳理演讲的框架,其实,演讲者的每次说话都是一个潜在的领导力时刻,做好准备,就能放大这个时刻的影响力。
因为你说的话,是别人记住你的最快途径。那些即兴表达能力强的人,一开口就赢得了更多机会。在这个飞速发展的时代,人们沟通方式也趋向高效,即兴演讲、高效交流由此变得越来越重要。
因为即兴演讲是面对面沟通,能让人直接感知我们的重视。能促进人们更好地交流感情、建立信任,获得听众信任的最好办法,就是面对面沟通。
因为你的每次发言都是,个人形象的塑造,和个人IP的输出。在这个注重打造个人IP的风口浪尖,掌握了即兴演讲,随时在任何场合发表演讲,便能产生巨大的影响力,老师的《总裁招商落地系统》之IP思维,就是引导每个领导者应当塑造自己的个人IP,因为它能形成口碑效应,在人与人之间传播,具备了即兴演讲能力,有了即兴思维,做事自然水到渠成。
