Lead: The beginning of the speech is a preface, which is a passage that the speaker said at the beginning of the speech. The beginning of a speech is the first message that the speaker spreads to the audience, the first impression that the speaker leaves to the audience and the first bridge between the speaker and the audience.
Six ways to start a wonderful speech The beginning of a speech is the prologue, which is a passage that the speaker said at the beginning of the speech. The beginning of a speech is the first message that the speaker spreads to the audience, the first impression that the speaker leaves to the audience and the first bridge between the speaker and the audience. "A good beginning is half the battle." It can be said that a successful speech has a wonderful beginning, and in any form of speech, the beginning is always the key. So, how can the speaker make the beginning of the speech a blockbuster? Hold the audience's heart tightly?
Combined with specific examples, this paper introduces several practical opening methods:
Don't beat around the bush and say it directly.
Straight to the point, this is the traditional opening method of composition in China, and it is also a common opening method in speeches. This kind of opening has the characteristics of crisp and neat, prominent center and distinct point of view, which meets the psychological acceptance requirements of the audience. For example, at the beginning of Yang Yao's speech "Love of Soldiers":
"Friends, hearing this topic, many comrades present here may associate it with love. Yes, love is sacred and beautiful. However, what I want to talk about today is a kind of love with stronger vitality in a higher sense. This is the love of soldiers! "
At the beginning of the speech, the speaker used concise and passionate language, without beating around the bush, but more exaggerated and direct, which concentrated the audience's thinking on the topic of the speech center and aroused the audience's interest in thinking about the main content of the speech.
Humorous, funny and full of fun.
Humor is the flash of human wisdom. The beginning of humor is often humorous, relaxed and natural, lively and clever, pun and funny. This kind of opening can not only show the wisdom and talent of the speaker, enhance the aesthetic feeling of the language, but also make the audience consciously or unconsciously enter the role in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Accept the content of the speech. For example:1965165438+10, Premier Zhou Enlai specially hosted a banquet in the lobby of the Shanghai Exhibition Hall to celebrate the 80th birthday of American friend Ms. anna louise strong. At the banquet, Premier Zhou started like this:
"Ladies and gentlemen, today, we celebrate the 40th birthday of our good friend, American woman writer anna louise strong. In China, the number of the word "Gong" is twice as much as that of the quantifier after it. 40 kilograms equals 80 kilograms, 40 kilometers equals 80 miles, and 40 years old equals 80 years old. "
Premier Zhou's relaxed, ingenious, humorous, harmonious and emotional explanation caused hundreds of birthday parties to burst into laughter, and the hall was full of festive atmosphere. Ms. Strong, 80, was even more excited and shed tears of joy.
Using one's own characteristics, being optimistic and self-deprecating is sometimes a good beginning of humor. 1990 CCTV invited Mr. Ling Feng, a film artist from Taiwan Province Province, to attend the Spring Festival Gala. At that time, many viewers were still very strange to him. In order to shorten the distance with the audience and seize the hearts of the audience, the clever LAM Raymond said:
"In the lower LAM Raymond, I am different from the article. Although we all won the Golden Bell Award and the title of Best Male Singer, I am notoriously ugly ... Generally speaking, they think I am thinner than Huanghua and my face is darker than coal. "
These words are witty, funny and distinctive, and the audience burst into laughter. This self-sufficiency in the opening left a very frank and humorous impression on the audience and received unexpected results. Ling Feng's name spread all over the motherland overnight.
The vivid story is fascinating.
Stories can stimulate the curiosity of the audience, enlighten thinking and stimulate imagination. At the beginning of the story, the speaker vividly told a short story with vivid content and exciting plot. Stories can be shocking emergencies, legends and historical allusions in life, which make the audience sympathize with, pay attention to and surprise the development of the story and the fate of the characters, and then quickly enter the theme framework of the speaker's speech. For example, in the keynote speech "Motherly love, the most selfless love in the world", a player started like this:
"This is a true story. At the dawn of June 5438+065438+ 10, 2006, a serious traffic accident occurred in the suburbs, and a bus fell from a cliff tens of meters high. According to the preliminary investigation, no one was spared from more than 20 people in the whole car. Suddenly, a baby's faint cry came from the pile of corpses. Pulling open the body, it turned out that a baby less than one year old was crying in the arms of a dead young woman. The woman was later proved to be the mother of the baby, and her hands arched tightly to protect the baby in her arms.
In order to take the child out, the police and medical staff had a great effort to break her already stiff arm. Most people were sleeping when the car accident happened. Maybe someone's call awakened the young mother. The moment the bus fell, her mother's instinct changed her survival instinct. Instead of putting her hand on her head, she built a safe' nest of life' for her baby with two weak arms and gentle breasts ... "
The story is tragic, thrilling and closely related to the theme, which quickly aroused the audience's appetite and made them have a strong desire to listen. In the story, the young mother's feat of giving her life to save her son when the disaster struck shocked the hearts of every audience, firmly attracted the attention of the audience present, and laid a good foundation for the great speech theme of selfless maternal love.
Clever suspense, rock-breaking
Prominent prologue is an effective way to make the prologue of a speech artistic. The audience has a particularly strong desire to explore some problems and events beyond their imagination. A strong desire to explore will enhance people's sensitivity to external information, easily activate their thinking, and then produce an emotional impulse that they can't stop. Therefore, setting suspense at the beginning and putting forward some rare, strange and shocking events can achieve unexpected results. For example, Luo Hongliang, Party Secretary of Xiang 'e Township, Dujiangyan City, Chengdu City, Sichuan Province, began his speech with "an impregnable battlefield":
"Leaders and comrades: I am Luo Hongliang, secretary of the Party Committee of Xiang 'e Township, Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province. On the afternoon of May 12, I was presiding over a working meeting on village road construction in Lian Yue Village near Lianhua Lake. Suddenly, the earth shook and Lotus Lake rolled like boiling water. Someone shouted:' Earthquake! Everyone and I quickly ran out of the meeting room, climbed the rocks by the lake and looked in the direction of the township government. There is yellow smoke all over the sky, so we can't see anything clearly.
No, we have to go back at once! My colleagues and I hurried to the township government. Along the way, the surrounding houses almost collapsed and the cement pavement collapsed and cracked everywhere. The situation in the township government and surrounding areas is more serious than I expected: only a few houses are left standing alone in the ruins, and the whole street has become a pile of bricks! "
At the beginning, the speaker set a suspense, telling the tragic disaster, the huge destructive power and the tragic scene, which made the audience feel anxious, nervous, worried and shocked. They tightened their thinking strings and were eager to know the situation in the earthquake-stricken areas, and they were eager to know the role of the party organization as a fighting fortress in times of crisis and how party member's vanguard and exemplary role was played. Catastrophes are the easiest way to reflect the brilliance of human nature, and also the touchstone of party member's party spirit. It is natural that the audience can't wait to hear it.
Appropriate display from real to virtual
At the beginning of the props display, the speaker shows something before the speech, giving the audience a fresh and perceptual intuitive impression, thus attracting the audience's attention, fully mobilizing the audience's interest and expectation, and catching the audience at once. For example, in a lecture on "Cherish Time" held by a military academy, contestant No.6 picked up a yellow leaf on the window sill of the stadium and began to speak:
"Dear students: Look, what's in my hand? Is it a fallen leaf? Not bad. But is this just a fallen leaf? No, it's a passer-by through just visiting. The first is the time of concentration. It is a poem that laments that time is gone forever. We read it as if we were talking to the time that came and went. From here, we see the power and coldness of time. Green leaves are dancing, which is the elegance of time; Yellow leaves have fallen, which is the destruction of time. Facing it, what reason do we have to despise time? ……"
The speaker's props are flexible, natural and practical, which meet the requirements of the speech content and are skillfully used. Taking the yellow leaves as the "breakthrough point", this paper explains the philosophical understanding and thinking of time in a simple way with vibrant language, which arouses waves in the audience's mind, produces a three-dimensional effect in the audience's mind, and brings a refreshing image feeling to the audience, and the effect is quite good.
Philosophical enlightenment of famous aphorisms
Famous sayings, epigrams, epigrams, lyrics, proverbs, poems and other languages are concise and beautiful, rich in knowledge, profound in cultural accumulation, extremely philosophical and inspiring, and will always have eye-catching power. A good way to quote famous sayings and aphorisms properly without losing a wonderful beginning. For example, in the speech "Evergreen Tree of Life", a player started like this:
"Friends, the great poet Goethe once wrote a poem:' The tree of life is evergreen.' Yes, life is precious to everyone, because there is only one time; Life is short for everyone, because it comes and goes in a hurry. Cherishing life means cherishing your youth; Being kind to life means being kind to your own good life. So, how should we make our lives more meaningful? How to make my life tree evergreen? Different beliefs and pursuits will have different answers. I think: life is brought by sunshine, so we should treat it like sunshine, don't waste it, let it shine on the world. "
The speaker quoted a poem by Goethe, a great poet, "The tree of life is evergreen", which is concise, popular and vivid, full of philosophy and artistic conception. The speaker was not only full of passion, but also inspired and displayed the audience. In the poem Evergreen Tree of Life, the audience can strongly feel the speaker's attitude towards life and the speaker's admiration for the tree of life. Yes, everyone should think rationally about life: does it make life bleak? Still dazzling? Inspired by the speaker, the audience quickly entered the "play" and quickly devoted their interest to the content of the speech.
As a practical and artistic speech, there are many ways to start. Such as: lyrical openness, rhetoric openness, performance openness, situation creation openness, etc. However, in any case, at the beginning, we should strive to be novel, ingenious, interesting, colorful and varied, and closely fit with the theme of the speech, so as to attract the attention of the audience and seize the audience at the first time.
Dear leaders and teachers,
Good evening, everyone!
It is an honor to speak here as a teacher representative!
Waving goodbye to the mid-term exam, ushered in the grand convening of the Third Teachers' Congress of the Sixth Session of our school.
In recent years, under the enthusiastic care and guidance of leaders at all levels, under the scientific management of school leaders and the joint efforts of all teachers, our school has braved the wind and waves and made continuous progress. The school follows the concept of "people-oriented, harmonious development", implements quality education in an all-round way, and constantly improves the quality of education and teaching, which has been recognized by parents of students and all walks of life.
Looking back on the past year, school leaders have been United and pragmatic, made bold decisions, constantly injected fresh blood into school management and instilled advanced ideas, creating a "harmonious, democratic and humanistic" working and learning atmosphere for teachers. Work: long-term vision, down-to-earth. The school spares no effort to build bridges in manpower, material resources and financial resources, providing a platform for the development of teachers.
Carry out various competitions, create opportunities to visit and study abroad, and help teachers improve their professional quality and tap their potential as much as possible. Life: being pragmatic and seeking truth, showing humanistic care. In terms of logistical support, the school has done everything possible. Find ways to solve life problems for teachers, enrich teachers' after-school life, fully mobilize teachers' enthusiasm and initiative, and make teachers know fairly well and have a basis for teaching.
The efforts of the school have also won the recognition of all the experts. I deeply understand the harmony, sincere unity, resource sharing and fair competition of teachers in the teaching and research group; I also feel that teachers outside the teaching and research group cooperate with each other and are willing to contribute, and Qi Xin works together to create brilliant high-spirited fighting spirit. Everyone is contributing their wisdom and strength to the maximum. Although bitter and tired, I have no regrets. Because we know our responsibilities and obligations.
There is always a reward for giving. 11/year college entrance examination, our school blossomed in an all-round way, and the number of online people in each batch climbed all the way to a record high; One online has 567 people and two online 1472 people.
Looking back, sweat and comfort are intertwined; Looking ahead, opportunities and challenges coexist. In today's society, teachers are given more and more responsibilities; The competition between brother colleges and universities is becoming more and more fierce; The voice of teaching reform is getting stronger and stronger, which requires us as teachers not only to shoulder the heavy responsibility of teaching and educating people, but also to keep pace with the times, improve our self-cultivation and truly adapt to the needs of the times!
We who devote ourselves to teaching know that every year is similar, but we also know that every year is different, so we dare not feel a little tired, for fear that our negligence will bring lifelong lack of knowledge and personality defects to students. So in our scholarly campus, Lang Lang's reading voice was mixed with hoarse voice, and there was a writing figure in the bright office. Among them, there are respected old teachers, middle-aged teachers in their prime, and more energetic young teachers. Everyone is so selfless that they practice endless learning and teaching, because they deeply understand the great significance of education and their lofty mission.
Walking in the front line of teaching, under the guidance of the new curriculum reform theory, we renew our concepts, change our teaching methods, and strive to explore our own advanced teaching classroom. One step at a time, as we all know, only by constantly improving ourselves, meeting challenges and overcoming difficulties will we continue to develop; Only by tenacious struggle and continuous innovation will we be stronger. The school introduces teaching reform into the campus, so that harmony is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, helping every teacher to make progress and meet the test of the times. Then let's take advantage of the east wind of education reform and bathe in the harmonious sunshine, and do our own business well in this fertile land of Zhongmou No.1 Middle School!
Here, on behalf of all the teachers, I solemnly promise that under the wise leadership of the school leaders, we will take this conference as an opportunity to make steady progress, trust and support each other, achieve all the goals this year, and make contributions to the comprehensive realization of the school's long-term planning.
Colleagues: We have such a tenacious, meaningful and cohesive leadership team; Have such a scientific, democratic and humanized management system; With such a series of clear, accurate and feasible planning goals, we firmly believe that Gao 'an's tomorrow will be more brilliant!
Thank you!
