英语演讲稿写作技巧
英语演讲稿技巧,对书面表达中常用的重要语言点进行系统化整理,从简到难,逐步深入,符合语言学习的习惯。在知识点的表述上简洁、直白;对必须掌握和理解的概念均通过例句加以剖析讲解,便于记忆1.根据听众对象,注意演讲的总体措词
演讲的总体措词是严肃一些还是活泼一些,是有较明显的说教口气还是用平等的口吻,等等,都要根据听众对象而定。如果场下听众是同龄的学生,那么演讲的内容只要风趣一些往往就能引起共鸣。但另一方面,如果听众大多是上了年纪的教师,太多的笑料反而会被认为"不严肃","不尊重",而引起反感。
用英语演讲,不要用太多I feel,I think,老是用I,显得十分主观,狭隘。如果通篇全是I feel,I think的内容,会给人觉得缺乏说服力。另外,perhaps,maybe这样的词语,虽然有"客气,谦虚"的成分,但太多会让人觉得你演讲的内容有不可靠之处。
还有,在演讲中,要少用you,多用we。用you等于把自己与听众对立起来,而用we则拉近了与听众的距离。比如:You should not smoke.听上去像教训人,而Let's not smoke听起来是一个不错的建议。
2.演讲要越短越好
英语演讲应该简洁扼要,直截了当。除非特别需要,一般不要采用中文中的那种迂回曲折的表达形式。据有关专家统计,一般人的注意力一次只能集中约13分钟。所以,演讲长度以10~15分钟为宜。下面是美国总统林肯所作的著名的盖茨堡演说,虽然全文只有短短200多个词,却带有振奋人心、扭转乾坤般的力量。其中of the people,by the people,for the people(民有,民治,民享)已成为不朽佳句。对于中学生来说,这篇演讲现在读起来一定会觉得很难,但要写好英语演讲,这确实是值得认真研读的经典之作。
Gettysburg Address Four score and seven years ago,our fathers brought forth on this continent anew nation,conceived in liberty,and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.Now we are engaged in agreat civil war,testing whether that nation,or any nation so conceived and so dedicated,can long endure.
We are met on agreat battlefield of that war.We have come to dedicate aportion of the field as afinal resting-place for those who here gave their lives that the nation might live.It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.But in alarger sense we cannot dedicate,we cannot consecrate,we cannot hallow this ground.
The brave men,living and dead,who struggled here,have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract.The world will little note,nor long remember,what we say here,but it can never forget what they did here.
It is for us,the living,rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us,--that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion,--that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain,--that this nation,under God,shall have anew birth of freedom,--and that government of the people,by the people,for the people,shall not perish from the earth.
3.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。
4.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(climax)、对照(antithesis)、排比(parallelism)、警句(epigram)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。
Let every nation know,whether it wishes us well or ill,that we shall pay any price,bear any burden,meet any hardship,support any friend,oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.(对照和渐进)
